Alberto Gonzales,

 

US Attorney General

 

Resigns!! Another

 

Member Of Texas

 

Mafia Bites The Dust!

 

- RI8

 

 

 

 

 

Cheer quickly! Why? Because Bush will nominate Gonzales’ replacement. Gonzales did not nominate himself. Therefore the problem is Bush, not Gonzales. The problem is Bush, not Rumsfeld. The problem is Bush, not Harriet Miers. The problem is Bush, not John Bolton. The problem is.. Well, I think you get the idea.

I have to publish this quickly because I want to make a prediction. If you predict the winning lottery numbers after the drawing, you can’t claim any credit!

This prediction isn’t earth-shattering or particularly insightful. After all, we’ve seen it every time a Bush Mafia guy has fallen. But I will make the prediction anyway. Tabacco predicts that in his press conference, due at 10:30am today, Bush will refer to Gonzales as a very good Attorney General, a great friend and a great American. Anyone care to wager he won’t? Hurry, you only have about an hour before the press spin.

I can only imagine, but I am certain that many Hispanics are embarrassed by Alberto Gonzales - his lying to Congress, that perpetual smirk on that Alfred E. Newman-like face. Clarence Thomas is not only a pariah for Black people; he is also an embarrassment. Wait until Hillary Clinton becomes the 1st woman president, heaven forbid, and count the number of embarrassed women, who think, “Of all the qualified women in Congress, we ended up with Hillary as our first woman president!”

The good news is that Clarence Thomas was appointed by a Republican president. Alberto Gonzales was appointed by a Republican president. George W. Bush was elected mostly by Republican voters. Blacks, Hispanics & Democrats should have known better before those appointments and that election were confirmed. The bad news is, if Hillary Clinton becomes our next president, she will be the product of mostly Democratic votes. There is no chance that Obama will be elected. A Black man couldn’t even get elected Senator in Tennessee once his Republican opponent ran an ad portraying a White whore saying to the Black candidate, “Harold, call me!”

In Congress the 3 smartest people, in order of intelligence, are Barney Frank of Massachusetts, Dennis Kucinich of Ohio, and Barack Obama of Illinois. Frank is gay, so he won’t bother to ever run. Kucinich is too smart for the electorate. And Obama is Black. If you don’t agree that great intelligence is a liability, Black or not, just type in “Adlai E. Stevenson” in your web browser. Stevenson was probably the smartest politician of all time. Oh yes, Clinton is fairly bright (I mean Bill, not Hillary), but he is overrated. Clinton is no genius.



Tabacco: I consider myself both a funnel and a filter. I funnel information, not readily available on the Mass Media, which is ignored and/or suppressed. I filter out the irrelevancies and trivialities to save both the time and effort of my Readers and bring consternation to the enemies of Truth & Fairness! When you read Tabacco, if you don’t learn something NEW, I’ve wasted your time.

AMY GOODMAN: I want to break into this discussion of Max Roach to bring our listeners and viewers breaking news. The latest we hear right now, CNN is reporting that Alberto Gonzales, the Attorney General of the United States, has resigned. Now, Amiri Baraka, we brought you here to talk about Max Roach, but your response, the political being that you are, seeing you on Saturday out in Newark marching with a thousand people protesting the war abroad and the war at home.

AMIRI BARAKA: Well, they stalled that long enough. Gonzales had to fall on his sword sooner or later. It was a short sword. It took a long time for him to reach it. But Bush's whole administration is sort of dying on the vine, you know. I wish it would happen more swiftly than it's happening. But -- I mean, because he's already violated the Constitution of the United States every kind of way you can think of. I mean, so to continue with this is to just march lockstep toward fascism. One hopes this will, you know, slow it down.

AMY GOODMAN: Charles Schumer, the senator of New York, one of Gonzales's chief critics, released a statement saying, “It has been a long and difficult struggle, but at last the attorney general has done the right thing and stepped down. For the previous six months, the Justice Department has been virtually nonfunctional, and desperately needs new leadership”, Schumer said. He went on to say, “We beseech the administration to work with us to nominate someone whom Democrats can support and America can be proud of”.

AMIRI BARAKA: I’m just sorry that Gonzales resigned before he could arrest himself. That would be the best arrest we’ve heard, basically, you know.

AMY GOODMAN: The protest that happened in Newark was one of the largest in decades.

AMIRI BARAKA: Yeah.

AMY GOODMAN: Scores of groups joining together with People's Organization for Progress.

AMIRI BARAKA: Well, you see, what I said then was that we need to join the antiwar movement with the anti-imperialist movement and the anti-racist movement, because people who want to fight against the war without seeing that war has its origins in imperialism, and that has to be countered. You have to start at the root, because otherwise, just by opposing this war, there might be a brief pause, and then there will be a war with Iran, and then there will be a brief pause, and then there will be a war with North Korea, then there will be a brief pause, and then some fool will say we should go to war with China. I mean, so it’s imperialism is at the root of the problem. You know, the war is just a reflection of imperialism, sort of an unbridled attempt to, you know, claim the world.

AMY GOODMAN: There are rumors -- just rumors, so far -- that President Bush is going to tap Michael Chertoff, the Secretary of Homeland Security, to be the next attorney general.

AMIRI BARAKA: Because he's done such a good job! I mean, Katrina should, you know -- I mean, I don't have any faith in Chertoff, since he used to be attorney general in New Jersey. You know, I mean, he's led a long and checkered career, you know. Appointment without, you know, accomplishment is what I see. http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=07/08/27/1425234
