I cleaned up the introduction to make it sound less like a high school yearbook article. --User:RWest 12:21 26 July 2007

It makes no sense at all to call a person "intellectually rigorous". Well, it makes some sense, but it's certainly not within the usual usage of the phrase.

Also, there are plenty of scandals more serious than the firing of the attorneys in which Gonzalez has been involved. Some mention of the NSA domestic surveillance scandal and allegations of perjury would be nice.

As for the attorney incident, though I'm sure there are people who think the actions taken were illegal, the event can be scandalous without being illegal. It is reasonable to object to the overpoliticization of government offices, and to deny that purely political firings are bad. It is, however, pretty childish to complain about the "liberal media", as if the desire of the public for its administrators not to fire public officials without explanation was totally manufactured by some monolithic liberal media monopoly.

Is it really objective to use the phrase "...the liberally-biased media..."? -- User:Fez

I don't believe this site's purpose is to be 'objective' where it compromises the truth of the matter. On another note, can we update this page with the end of his term and create a page for the new AG, Mukasey? EddieBurke 00:04, 13 December 2007 (EST)
