Mueller distances himself from Gonzales.
“FBI Director Robert Mueller kept his distance from embattled Attorney General Alberto Gonzales during a breakfast meeting with reporters,” even while calling former CIA Director George Tenet his “good friend.” “Despite repeated questions, Mueller refused to comment on whether Gonzales should step down or whether his ability to lead the Justice Department has been impaired by the furor over his decision to remove eight U.S. attorneys in December.”

Gonzo has cooties.
May 9th, 2007 at 11:58 amWatching the DOJ fall apart one day at a time. There can’t be too many days left before Humpty Dumpty falls down.
May 9th, 2007 at 12:01 pmI’d like to see the whole country “distance” themselves from all these politicians in government, and get a whole new leadership.
Someone must be held accountable for the many many crimes that have been committed.
It’s sad, IMO, that the founders didn’t include formal sanctions or punishments for politicians that didn’t follow the constitution. So, what do we end up with? “Leaders” who do what they want – with impunity.
Some reading on this:

Must be hard to play politics all the time.
May 9th, 2007 at 12:03 pmGonzales is a pox on our legal system. Merely a sympton of rampant Bush and Cheneyism.

May 9th, 2007 at 12:07 pmAppearing near Gonzo might be interpreted as support – anyone with half a brain would step back from Gonzo – the man is so clearly “Bush league” – I look forward to his next appearance before the committee.
May 9th, 2007 at 12:11 pmThat’s why i saw Mueller walking around with that 10-foot pole.
May 9th, 2007 at 12:19 pmFired attorney count now nine and rising?
May 9th, 2007 at 1:12 pmAnd your asking the director of the FBI these questions? Just what kind of insight do you think this law enforcement officer would have into matters of law?
May 9th, 2007 at 1:52 pmSecrets are his game. Just ask Dickhead cheney.
Wasn’t Mueller quick to point the finger at the Clinton’s after 9/11? And now the guy wants to distance himself from the Bushes,as well? History’s final judgement has a dank, foul-smelling little alcove reserved for Mr. Mueller and the other careerists who just went with the flow.
May 9th, 2007 at 2:25 pmthis guy is best friends with “tentits” but he is worried about being seen with gonzo?
