Gonzales Hearing Set for Jan 6

"Hearings in the Judiciary Committee to confirm Alberto Gonzales will be on Jan 6 at 10:00 . There is great cause for alarm with this nomination. If there could possibly be a worse Attorney General than John Ashcroft, it might well be Alberto Gonzales. The GOP appears confident that the Gonzales nomination will go through with out a hitch."

Overview of Alberto Gonzales including his activities as Texas Supreme Court Justice, counsel to Bush as Governor, Enron & Halliburton, death penalty, torture memos and more. Link to contact Senate Judiciary and let them know they must question ALL of Gonzales' actions.

1. I saw C-Span's schedule this morning...

How can they schedule confirmation hearings for people * wants in there when his election hasn't even been confirmed? It's not just Gonzales tomorrow, there are several of them scheduled for tomorrow morning.

2. Gonzales is the worst

He is the poster child for all the corruption and sleaze in this Administration. If we could get real reporting on this guy, he'd make Kerik look like an altar boy.

5. Just you and me I guess

We're going to have election investigations with Gonzales as AG? People have got to learn to juggle or something.

7. Those bastards

While the MSM is covering these hearings, the presidential vote in the House and Senate wil go on, with no coverage.

There is a method to *'s madness. Don't ever doubt it.

8. This is more important

I can't believe people. There isn't jackcrap that contesting this election is going to accomplish. Bush would love nothing more than to have Gonzales pushed through while the attention of Democrats is on election fraud. What do you think will happen with any evidence found with Gonzales as AG? Squat. And we won't even have made a big enough stink for people to understand why.
