I know I'm not the greatest person to ask about world events, but when I see something like this....

What has he done that is so bad?

How is he not keeping the interest of the American people in the best interest of America?

What is this about him being possibly ordered to see Ashcroft in the hospital?

Can I get some light onto this?

Mooch

He did nothing that went against his position. He was pulled into a farce of a "hearing", then accused of lying to the clowns in Congress.

The Democrats are no better than the drive by shooter who seems to hit everyone but their intended target. What they want is Prs. Bush, VP Cheney and Karl Rove's heads, but since they can't get them, they'll settle for distorted crap... you know, the kind of stuff the incompetent press feeds on.

Well that makes sense but why are there so far 5 republicans calling for his resignation as well?

Like I say I don't follow all this closely but this news story has got me wondering why they would approve and vote him as secretary general and then just a short time later pull this stunt....

I can believe the democrats want Bush, Cheney, and Karl Rove's head, but I don't think it's going to happen either.....The Republicans wanted Clinton's head so I guess is this is payback time then?

Thanx for your response

Yeah, part of it is payback for Prs. Clinton's impeachment.

Many of the Republicans in Congress are in what I call, "The Get Along Gang". These are RINOs who care more about appeasing Democrats in the name of "Bipartisanship" than anything else.

They seem to think that Congress is a "give and take" game, but they do a lot of giving in to the Democrats, but they don't seem to get much in return.

More than anything else, I think the "Get Along Gang" cost the Republicans control of the House and Senate. So many Republicans were disgusted with the lack of leadership the Congressional Republicans showed that they simply didn't vote in the last election.

I wonder if the Democrats in the US will hold their Congressmembers to the same standard in 08? Or will they just mindlessly vote for whoever's name is followed by a -D?

You and me both.
I don't get it either.
Who decided he has done such wrong?
Someone is being very judgemental.
Ordered to see Ashcroft in the hospital, did he all of a sudden revert to being a child? Susan

My biggest problem with him is that he let a situation get out of hand that should have been easy for him to deal with.

All he had to do was tell those democrats that the prosecutors were fired because Bush wasn't satisfied with the job they were doing.

Instead he let it turn into an opportunity for the democrats to embarrass Bush, which is exactly what they were hoping for.

To me this is a major screw up on his part and shows that he can't handle the job.

First of all, I must tell you that there is a deep running double standard in America. There is so much Bush hatred that when any of his cabinet members does anything it is portrayed in a negative light. What AG Gonzales did was he fired some US attorneys. This is a practice that has gone on in every administration. When Bill Clinton's AG Janet Reno did it, you didn't hear the Republicans crying fowl and so the Democrates should do the same. But as I have always said Conservatism is rooted in logic, Liberalism is rooted in emotions. I hope that this has helped you out and if you need any more help please respond.
