The White Housecleaning advances

With Libby and Rummy swept out, it looks like Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez--once George W. Bush's personal lawyer and top Texas cheerleader for full spead ahead on as many executions as possible--may now be headed to the dustbin of contemporary history. Good heavens, even the profoundly conservative Senator John Sununu of New Hampshire has put his hand to the broom. (For anyone watching news from the Bahamas and Hollywood instead of Washington, D.C., be advised that the legal arm of the Bush cabal fired eight federal prosecutors for not dancing to the flute of Karl Rove. Apparently their sins ranged from not throwing dirt at targeted Democrats to daring to prosecute big shot Republicans. (For example, fired prosecutor Carol Lam of San Diego sent the notorious Republican congressman Randy “Duke” Cunningham--who can truly be called the Prince of Bribes--to prison for eight years.)

Let the sweeping continue! All the way to impeachment of the boss.
