It Only Hurts When I Laugh

The Alberto Gonzales comedy of errors is heading toward the final curtain. In a Friday night news dump, the Justice Department tries to slip past notice the fact that the A.G., who has sworn more than once he had nothing to do with firing the U.S. Attorneys, held an hour-long meeting in November "to review a plan to fire U.S. Attorneys."

Kyle Sampson was there, but so was his "Who me?" boss, the Deputy A.G. and four other Justice officials.

Adios, Alberto. You're not the first and won't be the last to fall on his sword for Karl Rove.
