Gonzales Yet Again

It's now pretty clear that the Attorney General--the chief law enforcement official in the land--has been engaged in a determined effort to obstruct an obstruction of justice investigation.

Ms. Goodling told the panel that at a meeting in March, just before she resigned, Mr. Gonzales asked her questions that made her uncomfortable, as though he was trying to coach her so their accounts would be consistent.

When Gonzales breaks the law, he drags our entire system of laws down into the mud with him.

Anyone who cares about the rule of law should be appalled by his performance in office.

But you'd expect an independent-minded, clear-headed, moderate, centrist senator in particular to want to call him out for his bad behavior.

Clearly, Sen. Collins isn't that senator.
