| Iron Eagle | Posted – 4/19/2007 7:41:18 PM | show profile That pathetic! The guy is as qualified as Bush. What a turkey! |
| UGoGirl | Posted – 4/19/2007 8:23:47 PM | show profile Yes, he's a la Scott "Unanswer Man" McClellan. A Loyal Bushie all right but way over his head (like Bush). |
| LotusBlossom | Posted – 4/19/2007 8:41:43 PM | show profile F It is one thing to be incalculably underqualified for your job. It's another thing not to know it. Alberto doesn't KNOW he's mediocre; it's an unknown unknown for him, as Rumsfeld might put it. And I thought Bush was scraping the barrel with Harriet Miers. |
| Iron Eagle | Posted – 4/19/2007 9:54:03 PM | show profile It's another one of those crony appointments with Bush playing puppet master. These things have a tendency to implode. |
| PIKACHU30305 | Posted – 4/20/2007 8:50:12 AM | show profile n/a Did anyone catch his testimony last night? I only saw tidbits of it on the Daily Show and seemed to me that he had a bad case of alzheimer's or amnesia, or something. |
| Iron Eagle | Posted – 4/20/2007 8:56:13 AM | show profile Stewart had me rolling on the floor. |
| Nikongirl | Posted – 4/20/2007 10:03:02 AM | show profile He had no recollection - 70 times! |
| keltoi2 | Posted – 4/20/2007 12:26:48 PM | show profile There's a lot of amnesia running through the White House lately. Darnedest thing. Maybe someone should contact the CDC about it. Could be an epidemic in the making. |
| UGoGirl | Posted – 4/25/2007 10:41:32 PM | show profile Try try again... ** Today, Senate Judiciary Chairman Pat Leahy (D-VT) and ranking member Arlen Specter (R-PA) wrote to Alberto Gonzales asking him to "promptly supplement your testimony of April 19 with answers to those questions for which you responded that you could not recall or did not know." You can read the full letter here. By the senators' "conservative" count, Gonzales failed to provide answers "well over 60 times." I'm not sure how many questions Gonzales was asked, but it can't be much more than that. Noting that despite weeks of preparation, Gonzales did not appear ready to answer a number of key questions at the hearing, the senators wrote: "We believe the Committee and our investigation would benefit from you searching and refreshing your recollection and your supplementing your testimony by next Friday to provide the answers to the questions you could not recall last Thursday." |
