Wow. I guess Gonzales is going, then. Because we know that by the time Norm gets around to taking an ethical stand on something, the issue has already been decided.

Dear Senator Coleman, It was great to hear from you in the matter of Alberto Gonzales, and his ommissions to tell the truth about why firings at the Justice Department were part of a political move to stop investigations of Randy Cunningham, prevent investigations of organized voter fraud in Ohio and New Mexico and elsewhere in key districts in swing states. Norm, do you think Karl Rove might be operating this secret deal to manipulate the legal structure to ensure GOP victories ? Why did it take you this long to come to the light, so to speak, over this issue ? Did someone tell you not to come out , and ask for the resignation of someone in the Administration , but, facing a tough reelection, you did after calculating public opinion ? When this is all over in 2008, will you be able to pick up on your previous day job ? I guess you do not like 'Timetables' either, right ? Thanks, Norm.
