Gonzales: It's Time to Impeach or Jail

Geese Louise, it just gets more shocking by the minute!

It is time for politicians, on both sides of the aisle, to stop playing politics with this administration and start acting on behalf of the people of this country and our Constitution.

Impeachment and trial by the senate is the only re-course given to us, by our founders. They gave it to us for a reason. This administration is the very incarnation of that reason.

Gonzales: It's Time to Impeach or Jail | Democrats.com:

"Leftblogs are boiling mad at James Comey's dramatic testimony about the 2004 trip by Alberto Gonzales and Andy Card to then-AG John Ashcroft's hospital bed to pressure Ashcroft to approve the illegal NSA wiretapping program.

('Loyal Bushie' David Johnston of the NY Times featured Bush's role in ending the conflict by siding with Comey, but failed to report that Bush started the conflict by approving the blatantly illegal program and then personally calling Mrs. Ashcroft to arrange the shocking visit.)

Bush, Gonzales, and Card would have gotten their way if Comey hadn't raced over to the hospital and arrived before Gonzales and Card. Even more shockingly, Comey had to persuade FBI director Mueller to order the FBI agents outside the hospital room to ignore any order from Gonzales and Card to eject Comey. Ultimately, Comey and Ashcroft had to threaten to quit in order to get Bush to reluctantly agree to something resembling the rule of law - although the 'legality' of the final action remains a deep dark secret.

So it's no wonder that leftblogs are now calling Gonzales and Card 'thugs.' But there's infinitely more at stake than name-calling.

First, it looks like Gonzales committed perjury before the Senate Judiciary Committee, as looseheadprop details:
