"Look over there! Don't look over here!" is the tried and true way of trying to get out of trouble. Whenever I see a candidate or official trying to persuade the public to look at something off in the distance instead of the business at hand I wonder what's up.
So it was with great perplexity that I read the press release from Republican candidates for Montgomery County Commissioner and District Attorney providing the text of a letter they wrote President Bush calling for the resignation of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. Have any of these three, Jim Matthews (incumbent commissioner), Bruce Castor (current DA and candidate for commissioner), and Risa Vetri Ferman (currently first assistant district attorney and candidate for district attorney) ever commented on President Bush's personnel choices before? I don't recall any comments but it is possible they have.

Does anyone else think it is funny that in the first paragraph the press release asks for the ouster of "Roberto" Gonzales?
I think it's funny. Very, very funny.
