Breaking News: Gonzales Resigns

The CNN Political Ticker Reports:
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales announced his resignation Monday, telling reporters he informed President Bush on Sunday that he will leave his post “effective as of” Sept. 17. In a very brief statement before reporters, Gonzales offered no explanation for his decision and did not take questions. ”I am profoundly grateful to President Bush for his friendship and for the many opportunities he has given me to serve the American people,” Gonzales said. As the grandson of Mexican immigrants, Gonzales also said he has “lived the American dream.” ”Even my worst days as attorney general have been better than my father’s best days,” he said.
What does this mean for the Bush administration? I don’t think it will change much, the American public at this point in time, has their minds made. The only thing that President Bush can do now is just ride out the rest of his term, and serve the American people as best he can. What do you think?

I am just surprised it took so long for Bush to fire him; it truly shows his commitment to blind loyalty over competency. I feel the next president of the Unietd States wil have to show that he or she can spearate loyalty and competency when running their administration.
