Gone-zo watch (day 99)

US Attorney General and Bush succubus Alberto "Gone-zo" Gonzales has now been identified as the "Angel of Death" in testimony by former US Prosecuting Attorney Paul K.

The unaddressed question is why is the AG pushing increased use of the death penalty?

I also disagree with the testimony of David B. Muhlhausen from the Heritage Foundation.I am working on my own post on this issue.
