Gonzo gone

By Michael J.W. Stickings

Attorney General Alberto Gonzales's firing (or "resignation") is inevitable, reports CBS News, "just a matter of time".

And -- no surprise here -- the firing of the federal attorneys was all about "partisan politics," according to one of the fired. They didn't "play ball" with Republicans.

Bush is "pugnacious," as usual, refusing to bow to public and political pressure, but he's likely just waiting for the right time to pull the trigger.

We won't have to wait long.
