1. "Correct his testimony"???
Boy, I bet regular people in real life wish they had something like that when they get caught in a big lie.

6. Either way he is screwed
He either lied yesterday or back in June, but Lie he did and I believe an obstruction charge could easily be made as well. If he corrects his testimony to say the plan discussed with the gang of eight was indeed the Terrorist Surveillance Plan then he lied in June and an aside is that he intended to coerce a sick man into doing an illegal act. He stepped on his dick this time..

9. Here's a clue: Gonzo is still in office.
All the "ripping" in the world aside, he's still the AG. I'd rather see some action instead of the "ripping" and the posturing. Idle words have gotten this Party where it is today... in power, but without power.

Spare me.

10. Whatever Gonzo does, he's cooked.
If he doesn't change his testimony, he lied.
If he does change his testimony, he lied.

As far as I'm concerned, Tuesday was his "chance" to change his testimony. No more "chances".

11. I think they are hoping he will roll on the white house
because remember he said he didn't remember etc etc. Maybe they think he will now remember everything that happened rather than have a grand jury convened at his expense.
