So our good friend Alberto Gonzales is back out in the public eye, defending his (bull)shit and irritating the pimple on my ass. Campbell Brown was the latest to tell him to F**k off…I can’t wait until it’s my turn:

Alberto Gonzales: Well, I hope history will reflect the fact that during my tenure both at the White House and at the Department of Justice we did a tremendous job in protecting our country and also as attorney general we focused on protecting our kids from sexual predators, we focused on making our neighborhoods safe from guns and drugs. The level of prosecutions with respect to public corruption far exceeded what the previous administration did and so many people are focused on the little negatives that occurred.

Campbell Brown: But …

Gonzales: As soon as mistakes were made. But a lot was accomplished.

Brown: These were not little negatives. And we can go through the list, but let’s talk about — let’s start by talking about how politicized the Justice Department became. An inspector general found that. There is nothing partisan about that. Your office fired nine U.S. attorneys for political reasons. There has been no disagreement about that. I mean, how could you let that happen?

Gonzales: Campbell, Campbell, Campbell. I disagree with that. You said that nine U.S. attorneys were fired for partisan political reasons. That’s not what the report said. Quite the opposite. The report clearly found that there were performance related reasons for the removal of most of these U.S. attorneys and with respect to the remainder, they didn’t have enough information to draw definite conclusions. Now I clearly will acknowledge that there were political considerations taken with respect to the hiring decisions made by some of the staff within the Department of Justice. It’s something that I condemn and it shouldn’t have happened.

Brown: Well, the inspector general’s report that was issued, of course, during the Bush administration, I mean, found that you had been, quote, “remarkably unengaged” in the process and you quote, “abdicated your responsibility to safeguard the integrity and independence of the Justice Department.”

I think Alberto needs to shut the hell up if he hopes to escape criminal prosecution for his (bull)shit. I don’t know if he remembers that Bush isn’t in the White House any more and as such, it will be harder to receive a pardon.
