President Bush is the main force holding up the resignation of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, GOP sources say tonight. CBS News reports:
Republicans close to the White House tell CBS News chief White House correspondent Jim Axelrod that President Bush is in “his usual posture: pugnacious, that no one is going to tell him who to fire.” But sources also said Gonzales’ firing is just a matter of time.
The White House is bracing for a weekend of criticism and more calls for Gonzales to go. One source tells CBS News he’s never seen the administration in such deep denial, and Republicans are growing increasingly restless for the president to take action.

And that's how he took a stand on Rummy until the Democrats took over in the last election. I am sure there will be a turning point, but seriously who would want this job under this administration? So you can go down with this sinking ship? Have a special negative place in history? Not a lot of incentive to want Attorney General with this group.
Yup, as you said. The Gerbil stood by Rummy and Rummy got fired. Gerbil, himself, won't hire Gonzo. He will to Poppy Bush and they will have someone else give Gonzo his walking papers. Gonzo will be replace with one of Daddy's friends.
