Alberto Gonzales: In Memoriam

Alberto Gonzales: February, 2005 – September 2008

Alberto Gonzales, the 80th Attorney General of the United States, ushered the American Public through a new era of political scandals.

The primary cause of death seems to have been political pressure.

As a boy, he will be forever remembered by his neighbors as, “that kid who always looked through my window.”

As he grew older, Mr. Gonzales became interested in the Texan governor George W. Bush. Mr. Gonzales served Mr. Bush faithfully until September 2008 when Alberto met his tragic end.

He presided nobly over the Guantanamo Bay prison program, the NSA wiretapping program, and the dismissal of U.S. attorneys controversy, even under pressure.

He will never be forgotten.
