As part of their Hispanic Heritage Month (puke) coverage, Uncovering America, CNN has decided to hold up disgraced former U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales as an example. An example of what, I’m not so clear on.

Seems the line for all to say these days is that Hispanic values equal American values but Gonzales takes it a step farther saying:

Over the past 2 ½ years as attorney general, I have seen crimes involving dishonesty, corruption and depravity of types I never thought possible. I’ve seen things I didn’t know man was capable of.

What isn’t clear is if he was talking about himself, how he was dishonest about the U.S. spying on its own citizens, how he was part of a corrupt administration, how he endorsed the depraved torture of people. Probably not right?

Seriously is this the example we want our young Latino men to follow? To do whatever you can do to get to the top, even if it means selling your own people (and a whole bunch of other people) out? CNN couldn’t find anyone else? They should have called me. I would have given them a list of better role models.
