What does it take to get fired from this administration?

Apparently, nothing short of losing a war or an American city.

From the Washington Post:

The Justice Department said yesterday that it will not retract a sworn statement in 2006 by Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales that the Terrorist Surveillance Program had aroused no controversy inside the Bush administration, despite congressional testimony Tuesday that senior departmental officials nearly resigned in 2004 to protest such a program.

The department's affirmation of Gonzales's remarks raised fresh questions about the nature of the classified dispute, which former U.S. officials say led then-Deputy Attorney General James B. Comey and as many as eight colleagues to discuss resigning.

I think it's about time for Congress to exercise its constitutional prerogative and impeach the lying SOB.

P.S. I just realized that "lying SOB" could apply to any number of people in the White House. In this case, I mean Gonzales.
