Spineless, Hell-Bound, Lying Little Shit and the Mirth He Brings

Lately, the most laughs I've had while watching the Daily Show, Colbert Report or other political shows dealing in humor has been the clips of Alberto Gonzales' testimony to Congress. It's like I'm watching myself try and lie to my mom after she catches me sneaking out of the house, even though it's past midnight, I'm fully dressed, and there is a drunk girl at my window with another friend waiting in a running car across the street.

So, I decided I would post longer clips of the "testimony" for anyone who isn't furious that this guy isn't already standing in the unemployment line.

I just can't understand the loyalty Bush's underlings have for him. Or the loyalty they have to Rove and Cheney. In general, the entire culture of loyally defending corruption is mindboggling and brainfuckling.

Without further ado, watch a master dumbass at work.


With Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL)



Conyers does a good introductary summation before Gonzales starts talking. I like Conyers in this because he's so straightforward and makes so much sense in his questioning that it makes Gonzales' non-answers that much more frustrating.



And lastly, here is a clip of Jon Stewart on Bill Moyers' Journal as he discusses Gonzales' testimony and the larger subject of secrecy and incompetence within the Bush administration. As Moyers says, Stewart is able to "distill the essence of it," and explain to people clearly, and humorously, the attorney firing scandal.
