Seedy Gonzales

I think the U.S. Attorney-General's ouster is pretty much inevitable now. (See also Slate's discussion of same here.) Frankly, I don't see how President Shrub can justify keeping him on at this point. Then again, I don't see how President Shrub can justify keeping himself on. Dangling apricocks and noisome weeds and all that.

This blog, however, can't help but observe that it's a chap named Sampson bringing the house down. In an Allen Drury novel, such a coincidence (should we call it onomastopoeia?) would have been considered a little too "on-the-nose. "

Follow-Up: Andrew Sullivan brings my attention to this seconder (or thirder, or...) of the Shrubbie jiggering of the justice system.
