Because even a shambling and decaying Sgt. Schultz who craved brains would be a step up from the current fuckwit we have.
Schultz at least had charm and personality. Gonzales? He can’t even get members of his own party to like him! Given that they pretty much have been willing to rubberstamp and overlook everything Bushco has done, that’s beyond pathetic.
True, when Sgt. Schultz said “I know nothink”, it was believeable.
What is it with politicians and distressing surnames?
Hastur.
Specter.
We’re going to have a Speaker Reaper next, or Congressman Nuke-Em-Till-They-Glow, or Representative Nyarlehotep.

I never understood before that if you beat your slaves to speed up their work, they will be happier. By definition. :rolleyes:
This I got from Fark: Documents Contradict Gonzalez Testimony
I’ll be here patiently waiting for him to go to jail. I won’t hold my breath though.
I imagine he would have to be charged with something by a US Attorney. By the time that happens, you may be on a ventilator.

As I understand it (and don’t take my word for this), prosecuting a charge of contempt of Congress requires Congress to go through a US attorney, which is obviously not something Congress can rely on in this case. However, I believe there is something known as ‘inherent contempt’, which involves the sergeant-at-arms and other such officers of the Congressional retinue/whatever personally taking physical charge of the target and placing that person in one of the cells in the Capitol jail.
