Obstruction of justice and perjury: a two-fer for Gonzo?

obstruction of justice and perjury were the two thoughts that kept circulating in my head while watching monica’s testimony yesterday… (of course, both have been circulating in my head for months about damn near every stonewalling action undertaken by the criminals that call themselves our country’s leaders…)

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) ... said “it is surprising how often a whiff of obstruction of justice has reared its head in the course of this investigation,” adding that the “standard of impropriety that Kyle Sampson and the attorney general and the Department of Justice, through its public spokesmen, have defined is, in effect — tracks almost exactly the standard for criminal obstruction of justice.”

[...]

Gonzales may also be guilty of lying under oath. His conversation with Goodling took place on either March 14 or 15, a week after Goodling found out that she was going to testify before the House committee. Yet on May 10, Gonzales told the Senate Judiciary Committee that he had “not gone back and spoken directly with…others who are involved in this process.”

here’s hoping the damn congress will start to move expeditiously and stop their goddam pussyfooting around…

(thanks to think progress...)
