Moveon.org has started a petition opposing the appointment of Alberto Gonzalez as the new U.S. Attorney General, replacing John Ashcroft (a case of out of the frying pan into the fire, if ever I saw one). Anyway, click here to add your name to the petition. For some background on this whole situation, check out this CNN article. I had hopes that a second term would lead to some moderation on the part of the president: some searching for a middle, more moderate road with less strident America first conservatism.
Oh well, there’s always 2008. 🙁
Addendum: here’s another petition. This one is asking for the resignation of Donald Rumsfeld. Here’s a depressing link to check out if you’re pondering whether Rumsfeld should stay or go.
