Things are moving along in the Alberto "I'm a Lying Fucktwit" Gonzalez scandal .. moving at a crawl, but at least they are moving forward. With any luck, he'll be gone this by weekend. Otherwise, we will have to wait until 17 April to celebrate his resignation.
The House Judiciary Committee subpoenaed new documents Tuesday from Attorney General Alberto Gonzales as part of its investigation into the firings of federal prosecutors, with the panel chairman saying he had run out of patience.
"We have been patient in allowing the department to work through its concerns regarding the sensitive nature of some of these materials," Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., wrote Gonzales in a letter accompanying the subpoena. "Unfortunately, the department has not indicated any meaningful willingness to find a way to meet our legitimate needs."
"At this point further delay in receiving these materials will not serve any constructive purpose," Conyers said. He characterized the subpoena as a last resort after weeks of negotiations with Justice over documents and e-mails the committee wants.
The Justice Department did not have an immediate comment. [story].
Of course the Justice Department didn't have a comment. They know their boy is circling the drain, that it is only a matter of time before he disappears forever.

"circling the drain"
"what goes around comes around" my grand father used to remark. Looks like the Justice Dept will have to meet out justice on a White House that has institutionalized spying on Americans, subverted the electoral process and tortured whether innocent or guilty.
I must protest your maligning of my favorite Muppet by applying his name to the GWB crony currently occupying space at the Justice Dept. ;-)
What are the odds Gonzales even understands what a "Subpoena duces tecum" means?
