A quick note to all pet lovers and owners of all political persuasions. There has been a major recall of pet food for cats and dogs.

Mass recall of dog and cat food after pets die

We may disagree over Bush but we do share a great affection for our feline and canine friends.

Regarding Gonzales: The word is that he is about to go as Attorney General. In the same way that Libby is taking the fall for Cheney, Gonzales is taking the fall for Rove.

Please don't read this as a defense of Gonzales, I'm enthused to see him go.

Considering that it is George Bush who will be choosing his replacement, the prospects of someone better are virtually zero to none.

Bush will choose someone who will tow his line. What's his line?

Approve his unconstitutional policies such as torture, enemy combatant status, removal of habeus corpus, illegal wiretapping, the extension of his powers into the unitary presidency, etc etc.

The next Attorney General will probably be a neo-conservative American Enterprise Institute trainee, or a member of the Federalist Society, or an Evangelical of extreme right wing orientation, or a Bush family crony who will work with uncharacteristic alacrity to defend our poor encumbered president from his freedom and democracy oriented rivals (sic).
