Former Ashcroft Spokesman: Gonzales Should Resign

Now the calls for Alberto Gonzales’ resignation are coming from veterans of Bush’s own Justice Department. Here it’s Mark Corallo, the Justice Department’s chief spokesman from 2002 through 2005.

In a piece on Bush’s loyalty to Gonzales, USA Today reports that Corallo thinks Gonzales should step down over “mismanagement” of the U.S. attorneys firings. As he put it, “Alberto Gonzales’ loyalty to George Bush has got to trump George Bush’s loyalty to Alberto Gonzales.”
