Legacy Closes In: A Naming Contest

There isn't much that can be said good about the departed and unlamented pretender to the title of Attorney General, but I find it notable that he's getting a further kick from our Dallas media giant. Splashed across its editorial section today, the Dallas Morning News prints a nice selection of unfriendly parting shots kinda epitomized by William McKenzie's "I thought President Bush had made a good pick ... I was wrong".

From the News' Washington Bureau chief Carl Leubsdorf comes: "...the inadequate and inept....Mr. Gonzales was a yes-man with little background for his job as counsel."

From a selection of editorials all over the country, heads up given to mildest knife wielder of all, Paul Mirengoff; "Often the biggest gavor a president can do for a friend is to not appoint him or her to very high office." (Yes, the split infinitive kind of fits anyone who sympathizes with a supporter of torture and violation of the constitution.)

In all, the News - which has previously editorialized that Gonzales should go - concludes "Top law enforcer should be above politics".

Looks to me as if Gonzales, whom I usually refer to as 'Abu' has earned a place in a political hall of infamy that places him very much below any recently set standard, he's reached the reverse pinacle, wouldn't that be the stalagmite, of rejection.

The cretin in chief has his place in history for the worst appointment ever made, and the resulting worst executive branch ever created. It will look pretty horrible on their resumes. I estimate that the only solution to reward time at the pigs' trough that this cabal made of the public 'service' will be creation of lots of Pepperdine's (sounds like pay per dine) - a whole bunch of thumper thing tanks.

May I suggest some appropriate names (other than Nuremberg): Trough One Founderation? C'Rim En Al College? Crupshun U?

Please join with your suggestion, in comments.
