Alberto Gonzales has resigned.
It doesn’t solve anything. His successor (probably Skeletor Chertoff, according to rumor) will certainly be as bad, as corrupt, as mendacious. The Justice Department is still in ruins.
And yet, and yet…I did a little happy dance when I heard the news.
Is Chertoff even a lawyer?
He was an asst. district attorney somewhere.
Chertoff I believe used to be a federal judge, and is well regarded for his legal skills.
His managerial skills are another story, however.
(Someone whose opinion on the matter I trust)
