Panicking and in desperation as things continue to look even worse for them, the Bush misadministration tries to move up the date for Alberto Gonzales to testify. Dems piss their pants laughing.
The push to more quickly get Gonzales to Capitol Hill reflects the frustration of Republican senators, the White House and even the Justice Department over how long it will take for the embattled attorney general to testify before Congress. Each passing day adds life to the story.I bet they can't!
Gonzales is scheduled to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee on April 17. White House counselor Dan Bartlett said the committee ought to reschedule the hearing for next week.
"Let's move it up and let's get the facts," Bartlett said. "Let's have the attorney general there sooner rather than later."
The committee chairman, Sen. Patrick Leahy, said Gonzales was offered earlier dates but turned them down. It was Gonzales who chose April 17 and now that "everybody has set their schedule according to that," that date won't change, said Leahy.
"We are absolutely confused by the White House position," said Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Senate Democrat. "For the longest time, Alberto Gonzales wasn't going to come, maybe much later. Now the White House can't wait to bring him in."
