Alberto Gonzales, if you are reading this (and I know that you are). . .

. . . you are a crappy lawyer.

And a liar.

And an evil little shit.

But let’s start with crappy lawyer:

Is this why the Republicans on the Committee voted unanimously against putting Gonazles under oath when he testified? Gonzales had weeks to prepare for this testimony. He is a trained lawyer. Unlike most witnesses in a lawsuit, he was never cut off by the questioner. He was free to speak at will in response to every question for as long as he wanted, and to say whatever he wanted. Why is it necessary for him to issue a 6-page single-spaced letter, the bulk of which is devoted to "clarifying" what was his unambiguous (false) testimony to the Committee just a few weeks ago?


Glenn Greenwald picks apart the Attorney General’s letter of “clarification” that pretty much renders everything he said in his day of testimony to the Senate Judicialry Committee to be untrue. . . false. . . a lie.

Which, I guess, brings me to my second assessment: Gonzales is a liar.

Of course, now Gonzales says he lied when he said he lied. In a phone conversation with the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, Jane Harman (CA), Albi-G said the administration is not conducting any illegal warrantless domestic surveillance beyond the illegal warrantless domestic surveillance that the White House has already acknowledged.

Uh-huh. Like you always see in the courtroom dramas, you just gotta ask, “Where you lying when you said you were lying or when you said you weren’t lying?”

As for evil little shit, read this.
