The totally true misadventures of a really bad AG

AG Gonzales finally got to testify yesterday and blew the Senate Judiciary away, not with quick and truthful answers to questions but with his complete incompetence.

I'm not giving this guy through the weekend.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- White House insiders tell CNN that Attorney General Alberto Gonzales hurt himself during testimony before a Senate committee Thursday on the firing of eight U.S. attorneys.

The sources, involved in administration discussions about Gonzales, told White House correspondent Suzanne Malveaux that two senior level White House aides who heard the testimony described Gonzales as "going down in flames," "not doing himself any favors," and "predictable."

"Everyone's putting their best public face on," one source said, "but everyone is discouraged. Everyone is disappointed."

Imagine how we feel, 'one source'. This guy is our Attorney General and he comes across with all the credibility of a sociopathic liar. That being said, is anyone calling for his resignation? Sure. And that's just on the Republican side.

Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Oklahoma, said Gonzales should resign.

"The communication was atrocious. It was inconsistent -- it's generous to say that there was misstatements; it's a generous statement. And I believe you ought to suffer the consequences that these others have suffered," Coburn said, adding, "I believe the best way to put this behind us is your resignation."

Sen. Schumer is rumored to have wanted to have the CIA 'extraordinarily render' Gonzales to Syria. So that they could have a talk with him. Go for it, Chuck!

PDiddie who is inexplicably blogging at Feet To Fire has a highlight reel of what the freepers are saying. All I'm going to say about that is that they seem to be coming out of the delusion and reality is setting in.

May I recommend you start with a 'training liquor' like vodka or rum, then move on to the really fun stuff? Trust us, it helps numb the pain.

How about a hubcap full of margaritas? Bathtub full of gin (that's how one is really supposed to drown one's sorrows)?

But I'm not sad nor in pain, so I think I'll pop the champagne; it's almost ten a.m.

Bottomless mimosas at La Strada! That's the ticket!

I've seen piñatas put up a better fight than Gonzo did.
