Usually the Solicitor General [SG] is a top-notch nonpolitical officer, but Clement has followed the Bushies rather than agencies' recommendations and is just another suspect choice for AG. Example: the SEC staff position favoring investors was overruled in the Stoneridge securities case now before the Supreme Court, where Clement argues against investors.

Somebody from Texas (WACO no less) agrees with the president?
NO WAY!

Gonzales was never more than a "gofer" for the president and had no idea how to conduct his job. It appears that he had no concept of what the constitution is all about. His resignation is good news for the American people.
