I am having a hard time following you.

I asked you which conservative principles would be advanced by folding to the Democrats and dumping Gonzales. You responded by mentioning Bob Dole, the VA, Milosevic, the Secretary of Defense, foreign policy, the war in Iraq, etc. I do not see how those things relate to the firing of the U.S. attorneys, which is the ostensible reason for the Gonzales "scandal".

By the way, to "drop politics and focus on solutions as pragmatists" is a sure loser. It is all about politics. If the Left proves better at politics than we are, then "genuine conservative values" will be lost.

The answer was succinct and had nothing to do about democrats, but instead was about voters. Your preaching to the choir here is frankly ridiculous, if you support the way that Gonzales has handled his tenure at AG well fine.

I think that the AG has done a horrible job.

I think where we really disagree is in your assumption that Republicans should support Gonzales for no other reason than bipartisn reasons, which I do not.

Good republicans put country first and party second.

Lets hear what he has to say Thursday, but really what we have is an ogoing amnesia about his decisions and job performance, some would call it perjury, I do.

To paraphrase the article it is "Clintonesque" to assume otherwise.

And clintonesque is to quibble...

I think he should be impeached and disallowed the opportunity to resign as attorney general, and then count the silverware.

There are lots of Republicans tired of carrying the water of these fools and their poor behavior.
