"Mistakes were made," says Gonzales.

Really! After a little preamble I won't dignify with a comment Gonzales just comes right out and says it:

I believe in accountability. Like every CEO of a major organization, I am responsible for what happens at the Department of Justice. I acknowledge that mistakes were made here.

OK, so he's a little confused about what his job is but still, "mistakes were made," Gonzales say.

Only not by him.

ATTY. GEN. GONZALES: I stand by the decision. Again, all political appointees can be removed by the president of the United States for any reason. I stand by the decision, and I think it was the right decision.
(Chicago Tribune)

So "mistakes were made" by some damned peon who blabbed, perhaps. Not by him.

Why are these guys not behind bars yet?
