And he's out!!!!! Talking about bushwhacked...sorry I meant bush backed A-G, alberto Gonzales. He tendered his resignation, my darlings and well it is claim that Bush reluctantly accepted.
It is not UK news, but still significant as the US as influenced by British history has a common law tradition permeating their legal system. Though suffering from constitutional differences, the concept is the same..judicial review. Public authorities and bodies need to realize that they are not above the law..no matter how low the law gets, the are always under its rule. Or ideally that is the essence, right. I hate when these people speak of rule of law and fail to see that their actions is in contradiction of certain tenets of the concept.
His resignation is welcomed, that is the pressure that should come to bear on any public authority accountable to the electorate, if they fail to respect such accountability.
Cheers
