This situation is unacceptable, particularly in light of the abuses of justice performed by the Executive Branch and particularly by previous Attorneys General. The Senate needs to get back in session immediately to prevent this and require Senate confirmation of any appointees. We the people require an Attorney General that will swear to defend the Constitution, not the President. The Senate must refuse to confirm anyone that has any ties to the White House, and must demand that they investigate wrongdoing and malfeasance whereever they occur. This trend toward unchecked monarchy must end. And Senator Reid is right: Gonzales's resignation shouldn't end the investigation into his own personal misconduct.

The Democrats innovated far too many tactics over the past 8 years that will come back to haunt them once one of their own gets into the White House. Whoever they appoint as Attorney General won't be able to sack a single lawyer without angry Republicans seeking payback crucifying him. Any Democratic administration is going to need to contend with judicial filibusters as a widespread tactic. Cabinet appointments will be put through an absolute ringer and also potentially faced with the threat of filibuster. Something I've been quietly saying for years with every new tactic the Democrats have been throwing at the Bush administration, what goes around comes around.
