WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Embattled U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales announced his resignation Monday in a brief statement at the Justice Department. "I have lived the American dream," said Gonzales, the nation's first Latino to hold the post. "Even my worst days as Attorney General have been better than my father's best days."

That's probably because a construction worker can't fuck the Constitution sideways.

Gonzales described public service as "honorable and noble"...

Alberto, you signed off on the firing of federal prosecutors because they weren't "loyal Bushies" and then claimed you didn't know anything about any of it.

That narrows the options down to "liar" or "incompetent." Take your pick.

You attempted to strong-arm Attorney General Ashcroft in the hospital while he was in excruciating pain, barely conscious and all hopped up on goofballs.

You then lied about it to Congress. We know you lied because former deputy attorney general, James B. Comey was there. It's also flatly contradicted by FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III.

So we can add "asshole" and "perjurer" to that list but sorry, still nothing even approximating "honorable" or "noble." Not exactly surprising, however, coming from the same gaggle of idiots that "planned" (I use that phrase loosely), executed and continue to profess that Iraq is going well.
