Sen. Allard ‘weighing’ Gonzales resignation call.
Sen. Allard ‘weighing’ Gonzales resignation call.
Sen. Wayne Allard (R-CO) is “weighing” whether to call for Alberto Gonzales to resign “after reports that a former interim U.S. attorney for Colorado — who had Allard’s backing — was targeted for dismissal in early 2006. ‘Clearly these revelations are cause for concern,’ Allard’s chief of staff, Sean Conway, told The Associated Press Friday. … ‘(Allard is) watching things carefully and taking them all in…in terms of the attorney general’s future.’” Let us know how that goes.
UPDATE: Sen. Ken Salazar (D-CO) makes up his mind. “Salazar today called for the resignation of his friend, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, whose leadership he said had tarnished the Department of Justice. ‘I arrive at the decision with a heavy heart and disappointment,’ said Salazar.”

Ya think Bush feels any complicity in the professional destruction of people like Fredo?

May 18th, 2007 at 6:24 pmSo please vote no confidence when the time comes...
May 18th, 2007 at 6:24 pmIt won't be long now. Bush dug in his heels and takes more political damage every single day Gonzales stays until he can't find anyone else to publicly support him and has to throw him under the bus like Scooter and Rummy.
Well played, Dumbya!!!
May 18th, 2007 at 6:27 pmSalazar being friends with Gonzales makes me wonder about Salazar's ability to judge character. Seriously, how can anyone be friends with that snake?
May 18th, 2007 at 6:28 pmBlah blah blah, just getting it on the record for election time....
May 18th, 2007 at 6:37 pmIt was Salazar who introduced Gonzales at his confirmation hearings, and sat next to him throughout the process.
Ken Salazar was also a Joe Lieberman supporter, and recently voted against the Feingold-Reid bill to redeploy the troops by March 31, 2008.
May 18th, 2007 at 6:40 pmHmmmmmmm... what do I do? Hmmmmmmmm... Toss up.... Hmmmmmm... Now, it may have effected MY state... Hmmmmmmm... let me weigh this..... Hmmmmmmm...
May 18th, 2007 at 6:42 pmOn second thought, Gonzo is more like Renfield to Bush's Dracula.
May 18th, 2007 at 6:44 pmSalazar = DINO
May 18th, 2007 at 6:59 pmAnyone living in Colorado will tell you that
Salazar > Allard
It's really not even fair to compare the two.

I've lived in Colorado for 27 years.
They're both jerks but Tancretin and Marilyn Mooseface are much worse.
And don't get me started on Ben Nightmare Campbell.

That is freakin' funny!
May 18th, 2007 at 7:10 pmWayne Mallard got kicked out of his Ethics chair for censuring Tom Delay 3 times. So he's not all bad.
Salazar is a party traitor.
May 18th, 2007 at 7:18 pm#1. In a word ...no! GW is tooo entitled to feel anything like what you ask about.
May 18th, 2007 at 7:28 pmI have called Salazar and e-mailed him several times, He seems to be ready to go forward and impeach the entire administration for High crimes and misdemeanors!!!
May 18th, 2007 at 10:09 pmyou can and should call the following TOLL FREE number and insist on no amnesty for illegals,bring our troops home from Iraq and Afganistan, and any other thing you think needs adressed

May 18th, 2007 at 10:13 pmSalazar now feels bad about helping Gonzales to be confirmed as Attorney General, but lol I sent a FAX at the time to Ken to not support Alberto. He backed Gonzales because he is Hispanic like himself.
May 18th, 2007 at 11:33 pmallard, salazar, and tancredo are my congress members.
it reflects so poorly on my state of colorado.
salazar doesn't seem to know the difference btw the parties. he votes with the bushies more often than not. he was supposed to represent the rural farm folks here, and has voted for the big money interests time and again.
i have a letter on my fridge from "let's bomb Mecca tom" explaining how stupid i must be to think that destroying the most sacred site to nearly one in four of the people on this planet is a very bad idea. rep. tancredo seems to me to be the type that would support a 'final solution' approach to the world challenges we face.
as for allard- i can't even guess what he's doing there, and i get his newsletter.
i sure wish people of character and intelligence would run for these seats.
instead, we get the vacuous, the monied, or the sycophant.
as for gonzales, he may be the pin in the hand grenade- pull him and it's fragging of the neo-con reich,
May 19th, 2007 at 5:14 amHe already called for the resignation. Maybe, just maybe there is a voice of reason out there that can convince Gonzales to be "nudged" out to a new post!
