Breaking News! Going On the Record Zaps Long Term Memory
April 19th, 2007
Wow…this Senate testimony with AG Gonzalez is killing me! I’m not making an opinion on the issue at hand, it’s just amazing that Gonzo seems to have forgotten ALL the relevant information, meetings and discussions that pertain to the case. “Senator, I don’t recall…Senator, I can’t recall…Senator, I do not recall…” That pretty much sums up the hearing.
I guess I’m old skool, but I still take notes at most of my meetings. Further, even without notes I can remember pretty well almost every meeting of importance at the office in the past 3 years. Why is it that this guy can’t remember mega-important meetings and discussions from last November!?
Oh yeah…that’s why.

I am not defending this man, but as I get older…what were we tlaking about?
As I sit here watching The Daily Show with John Stewart on my questionable TVU player, I can’t help but laugh out loud. He just showed clips of the hearings. Apparently Gonzalez used the words “I can’t recall” 45 times before lunch. As Mr. Stewart put it so eloquently: “That is a lot.”
