Sen. Coburn Calls for Gonzales to Resign

Filed under: General — Patterico @ 6:25 pm

When Patterico blazes a trail, Senators follow.

Sen. Tom Coburn joins my call for Alberto Gonzales’s resignation.

Oh, sure, Sen. Coburn didn’t mention my post specifically — but the idea that it had no effect at all is as outlandish as the idea that the U.S. Attorneys weren’t fired to affect political corruption prosecutions.

And I mean that.

By the time you get through diagramming that sentence, to figure out what I really mean, the scandal will be over.

TPMmuckraker has video of Coburn calling for Gonzales’s resignation here.

Good for him.

  1. I swore I would never diagram another sentence after high school but I got the gist of your point and it was well-made. In addition, I’m impressed with your correct use of “effect” and “affect.” Maybe you should file this under Grammar.

  2. Bye Bye ‘Berto?…

    I didn’t try to keep up with the Gonzales hearing but Patterico did and he says he’s toast. Click here, here, here and here. Captain Ed wasn’t too impressed either. Adios, muchacho….
