Alberto Gonzalez Resigns As Attorney General
« on: August 27, 2007, 04:03:14 pm »
(According to Congress.org.)  I've been expecting this; I think he has hampered Bush for some time now. Bush's loyalty to him was counterproductive to whatever sucess his administration may have in the remaining months. Therefore, I'm of two minds about this :)
On a personal level, however, it must be such a crushing blow for one of the highest ranking Hispanics in government.

Once you lose your credibility, you don't have much on which to trade.

That's a very good way of putting it.  Although, I have to admit, I was all excited when I heard Gonzalez resigned.  I was thinking Fredi.

Maybe Fredi could go to Houston (Astros)?

You two are a hoot.  Can't wait to get together and argue like fricking hell over lunch out in the Utopia of Rockville...sometime in September?

Nospin, I work in Germantown, and can wear something sexy if you want me to stand-in for the WNFF women    ;) 

Just don't start tapping my foot with yours, we don't know each other that well yet.

Yes, formerly Advancis Pharmaceutical Corp.  We own and sell the branded drug Keflex, which is one of the most often prescribed antibiotics, but 99% of the time it is switched for generics by pharmacists.  So don't blame us if your lower extremity soft tissue infection doesn't heal up properly.

I am going to put the lunch on my calendar, and make a point to attend unless something comes up that I have to do instead (like, work interfering with my social agenda).

We do offer free product to indigent patients, if your doctor requests it from us.  But, I wouldn't recommend taking antibiotics just because the price is right!

I WAS KIDDING. I AM ALREADY IN THE DOUGHNUT HOLE AND PAYING CATASTROPHIC FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR AT FIVE PERCENT. PLUS SOME OF MY DOCS GIVE ME PLENTY OF FREE SAMPLES.
