Alberto Gonzales As Peacemaker?

I wish I didn't feel like I'm harping on this subject, but alas, this just grates my nerves. The Bush administration has so much gall, it's absolutely insulting to the American people.

Al Gore said in his speech, and I concur 100%:
Is our Congress today in more danger than were their predecessors when the British army was marching on the Capitol? Is the world more dangerous than when we faced an ideological enemy with tens of thousands of nuclear missiles ready to be launched on a moment’s notice to completely annihilate the country? Is America in more danger now than when we faced worldwide fascism on the march-when the last generation had to fight and win two World Wars simultaneously?

It is simply an insult to those who came before us and sacrificed so much on our behalf to imply that we have more to be fearful of than they did. Yet they faithfully protected our freedoms and now it’s up to us to do the very same thing!
Preaching to the frickin' choir here!! I mean, seriously! Do we think that we are in more danger than we were during all those times of crisis? It is an absolute INSULT to those who came before us, who stood up to the tests our country faced, and shone brightly in the face of adversity! These were true examples to be followed, not examples to be forgotten.

This is the kind of thing that we as the freedom-loving peoples of the United States, can't just let go by. Here, the students at Georgetown University put actions where words were:



How dare Alberto Gonzales make a visit to a law school, where level-headed, logical experts in constitutional law wander the halls in study every day. This isn't the capitol building, where everyone is a politician first, and lawyer second. The nerve of this guy and this administration is just unending.
