In the Jan. 6 editorial, the Sun Journal listed the strikes against Alberto Gonzales. But the writer, David Farmer, left out one that makes the others dwindle to insignificance. He shouldn’t feel alone. It’s never mentioned by the mainstream media nor by liberal pundits and politicians.

What’s the real sin committed by Mr. Gonzales? He’s a minority member who dared to escape from the Democratic plantation. He joined a small but growing group, including columnist Walter Williams and economist Thomas Sowell and, of course, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

From first to last, the lead inquisitor is Ted Kennedy, panting over the lurid details.

When the “systematic abuse” gets the attention it deserves, then I’ll try to whomp up some sympathy for those butchers forced to wear inappropriate headgear in “countless” places.
