YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP!!!!!

1- Alberto Gonzales had 9 U.S. attorneys fired in 2006
2- Congress inquires into 'why' they were fired (political reasons would be illegal)
3- Alberto Gonzales testifies that he doesn't know or doesn't remember why they were dismissed
4- Congress issues subpoenas to White House counsel Harriet Miers and White House Chief of Staff Joshua Bolten to testify as to their inside knowledge of the firings
5- Bush Administration forbids them to testify citing 'executive privilege'
6- Congress votes to issue Miers and Bolten 'contempt of Congress' citations for not obeying the subpoenas

And as pointed out by the writers of The Daily Show: Whose job is it to uphold Congressional citations?

ALBERTO GONZALES!!!

So, in review... Alberto Gonzales is supposed to make sure that Miers and Bolten are punished for refusing to tell Congress what they know about Alberto Gonzales having broken federal law!

Can't we just throw everybody out and elect 2nd graders to do a better job of things?
