In the ongoing feud between the legislative and executive branches of our government, Rep. John Conyers has served the subpoena authorized a few weeks ago to compel Attorney General Gonzales to give more information on the firings of the US Attorneys.

It’s important for everyone to remember the Executive Branch has total control over whom they hire, whom they fire and for whatever reasons, including no reasons.

Admittedly, the spokespersons for the Justice Department, including Gonzales, did themselves no favors in the way they botched up the testimony they already gave.

Just sit there and say you did it and quit trying to dig a deeper hole making up a story about why. Say you did it because it was your right to do so and that’s it.

Why congress thinks this is something they need to involve themselves in seems to be just another way to force Gonzales out of office so we can have another food-fight trying to confirm a new Attorney General.

Dear Lord, how did this great country ever come to this?
