Do I Smell Brimstone?

So, Alberto Gonzales finally jumped ship as the U.S. Attorney General. For that I am most grateful. I don't even have words to convey the depth of my dislike for that man. As soon as it was announced that Gonzales was leaving Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff's name began to float around as Bush's most likely nominee to replace him.

I remember when Michael Chertoff surfaced during the Katrina aftermath. The very first time I saw him I said, "He looks like Satan sans the horns and a tail."

However, who he really looks like is Anton LeVey, founder of the Church of Satan and the author of the Satanic Bible.

See....



Now, that's creepy! Does it smell like brimstone in here to you?

I mentioned this yesterday over at Daily Dixie.

Alabama's Two U.S. Senators Vote to Reverse Part Of Patriot Act

March 20, 2007 07:26 PM PDT

Alabama's two U.S. Senators, Jeff Sessions and Richard Shelby joined the majority to reverse a provision in the Patriot Act.

This vote concerns the Bush Administration's firing of 8 U.S. Prosecutors.

Shelby and Sessions took the Democrat's side, and voted to end the administration's ability to fill U.S. Attorney vacancies with White House loyalists.

The House has not considered the bill.
-------------

While this isn't a vote to repeal the entire Patriot Act it is a small step in the right direction. I do believe this is the first time Sessions and Shelby have done anything that I have approved of. They generally tend to be terrible embarassments to the state of Alabama. Please write them a note and let them know you appreciate their vote on this matter and push them to repeal the whole Patriot Act.
