He has not earned the right to say this kind of thing in a public forum. He has no idea what it means to be a President. Alberto Gonzales has been a loyal lackey, not even a <strong>law<\/strong>yer &#8211; much less a White House Counsel or an Attorney General. Torture&#8217;s fine.Eavesdropping is fine. Republicanizing the DOJ is fine. Giving away hiring and firing powers to junior staff is fine. Bullshitting Congress is fine. Trying to get his predecessor to sign papers in extremis is fine.
