Irony: Gonzales resignation effective on Constitution Day
Gonzales says quitting as of September 17

Constitution Day

Irony:

NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim September 17, 2007, as Constitution Day and Citizenship Day, and September 17 through September 23, 2007, as Constitution Week. I encourage Federal, State, and local officials, as well as leaders of civic, social, and educational organizations, to conduct ceremonies and programs that celebrate our Constitution and reaffirm our rights and responsibilities as citizens of our great Nation.

Accountability:

...even with Gonzales gone, Congress must keep pushing until we get truth and accountability on unanswered questions involving everything from illegal wiretapping to the US Attorneys scandal. -- John Kerry

2. Wonderful! I knew that date sounded familiar,
and am ashamed did not know it immediately. Been over 30 years since I taught American History - but that is no excuse for me.

It is guaranteed that Gonzo does not know it - nor anything else about the Constitution.

4. How did he know?
That's exactly what I wanted for Constitution Day!
And I thought he wouldn't recall.
