The Face of Latino Unemployment

14:00 H | Topics: Politics

Pobrecito. Seems that former U.S. Attorney General, Alberto Gonzales, has been having a rough time finding work ever since he was forced to resign.

He has, through friends, put out inquiries, they said, and has not found any takers. What makes Mr. Gonzales’s case extraordinary is that former attorneys general, the government’s chief lawyer, are typically highly sought.
A longtime loyalist to George W. Bush dating to their years together in Texas, Mr. Gonzales was once widely viewed as a strong candidate to be the first Hispanic-American nominated one day to the Supreme Court. A graduate of Harvard Law School, he carried an impressive personal story as the child of poor Mexican immigrants.

So basically he's the perfect Latino token for any law firm! The problem is that law firms usually have a problem with liars, especially such public ones (go ahead insert your lawyer joke here- I know you want to).

My local McDonald's is hiring.
