I don’t care how you look at it, this man is just sad. Granted a lot of what I know about him comes from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, but it sounds like they really didn’t have to do much to make him look like a total douchebag. I find it extremely ironic that if you begin a Google search for Albert Gonzales and look at the suggested searches, “Alberto Gonzales Resignation” has 1,230,000 results, “Alberto Gonzales should resign” has 837,000, and “Alberto Gonzales should be fired” has 731,000 results. His Wikipedia article has an entire section devoted to Calls for resignation or firing. It’s obvious to pretty much everybody that the guy is lying through his teeth. How does he still have job? An even better question, how can the president still be supporting him?

President Bush said today that the Congressional testimony of Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales last week, roundly panned by members of both parties, “in a way increased my confidence in his ability to do the job.”

Oh. Dear. God.
