Democrats and Republicans alike hammered Gonzales in four hours of testimony as he denied trying, as White House counsel in 2004, to push a hospitalized attorney general into approving a counterterror program that the Justice Department then viewed as illegal.

Gonzales, alternately appearing wearied and seething, vowed anew to remain in his job even as senators told him outright they believe he is unqualified to stay.

He would not answer numerous questions, including whether the Bush administration would bar its U.S. attorneys from pursuing contempt charges against current and former White House officials who have defied congressional subpoenas for their testimony.

Well lets Go Congress bout time

It is past time for action.

he feels he should stay... and Congress HAS to DO something

Seems to have a lot more bipartisan support than impeachment.

He is the perfect target to get the ball rolling here ...

Special Prosecutor needed but then will Bush Pardon Gonzales

America has no Justice Department and No Justice

we are in a Constitutional Crisis

Remember that thing about missing emails from Cheney's office. Fitzgerald was looking into that. If he indicts Gonzo and that forces him to resign, that's when the dominoes are really gonna start to fall.

I read here on DU that they can't do that anymore.
