Gonzo waves goodbye

The Rascal has learned -- well, actually it's an inescapable conclusion based on intensive study of all the factors involved -- that Attorney General Alberto Gonzales will resign within the next 96 hours.

Remember where you heard it.

Gonzo's situation is simply untenable. His web of lies is too much of a tangle to straighten out. Virtually everybody recognizes this fact. Consequently, all but the most buttheaded of Republican right-wingers want him out.

The man is saddled with the distinction as the worst attorney general in American history. Nothing's going to change that.

He's gone by Friday night.
