Whitehouse: We’ll Keep The Pressure on

Here’s Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) on Hardball earlier this afternoon on how long Alberto Gonzales will be able to stick around at the Department Justice.

Democrats are loathe to use the tool of impeachment, Whitehouse said, but added “I think that as we continue to put the pressure on, it may get to the point where even if the president’s highest purpose is to get his administration out of Washington without further indictment, it’s still not worth it to carry the weight of Attorney General Gonzales and his incompetent and very unprincipled administration of the Department of Justice.”
