Gonzales' Greatest Hits

Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert picked a helluva week to go on vacation (again, guys?).

And here's a roundup of internet columns on the matter... Glenn Greenwald implores the Democrats to take the confirmation hearings for Gonzales' replacement seriously, and use them to address what has happened to the Justice Department. Slate's John Dickerson looks at why President Bush hangs on to his incompetents for so long. And the Washington Post's Andrew Cohen passionately makes the case against Alberto Gonzales.

Finally, the cultists at Red State demand that... President Bush politicize the Justice Department even further by putting in even more cronies. Yikes, I'm outta here!
