Who's going to be next?

(I haven't written anything on the matter myself but JanieBelle has. You can read her comment on the resignation of the AG here)

sorry, to go a bit off topic, i tried to read your linked article and became aware of how out of touch i am with american politics since living in england for the last four years. one of my motivations for emmigrating was to escape GWB but i didn't know i would lose touch with all the other characters and nuances of everday politics i confess, i barely know who alberto gonzalez is or what he's done...

anyway, if you liked that bumper sticker you may enjoy this...

OK - Let's not get all that excited. I wrote COVER not COVET. So take a deep breath, calm down, and enjoy the post. An article cross-posted on the CNN/Time websites provides some fascinating insight into why our poor, misunderstood leader, GW, has gone to the mattresses in support of his AG when he was willing to trash other sympathetic members of his inner circle. And since his anointed AG has a direct influence on all of us here and our ability to live our lives and express our sexuality in the manner we find most appropriate, I think its a good read for everyone.

Personally, while I understand and agree with the story and its reasoning, I believe he keeps him around as much for the fact that his initials and job title are indentical which makes it SO much easier for him to remember who he is and what function he fills.
