Gonzo Has A Job!


From the Austin American-Statesman:

Alberto Gonzales, who resigned as the Bush administration’s embattled attorney general nearly two years ago, has lined up a fall-semester teaching spot at Texas Tech University, the university confirmed today.
....

Lawrence Schovanec, interim dean of Texas Tech’s College of Arts and Sciences, was quoted saying: “Judge Gonzales brings a unique experience to our classroom. His career in law, government and public service will provide our political science students a rich perspective of the executive branch and issues and challenges facing our nation. ”

There’s no hint in the announcement that Gonzales had difficulties as attorney general.


You can't buy a "rich perspective" like Gonzo's for mere money. He must have a soft spot in his heart for Texas Tech to grace their campus with his presence. I wonder if the students will heckle him in his classes.

  2. This was especially fun to me because "gonzo" in my mother tongue means "rat"

  3. I was greatly amused that Gonzales was chosen to teach any sort of political science course. Maybe it's a how-not-to-do-it course.

    Rudo, no credit to me for the name applied to Gonzales. Then there was the Muppet, a fearsome creature.

  4. If he's teaching legal ethics, I'd transfer.
