The vote on closure failed 53-38, but that still means that we had 53 Senators voting to express no confidence in Alberto "Abu" Gonzales.
Yes, the Republicans have weaseled out of having an official non-binding resolution, but still, a majority of the Senate has effectively and publicly expressed no confidence in Gonzales.
That is what our party leadership should be shouting from the rooftops and in front of every video camera in the nation.
Why do they even have a filibuster for non-binding votes? It's not like they are binding?
Perhaps had Reid delivered a letter to the Whitehouse signed by 53 Senators, we would see different headlines.
