Rehnquist is in poor health and is very old, he cannot continue to make the heavy decisions required for that position. It is true that Gonzales may not be as strict as Ahscroft although he has already whole-heartedly agreed to support and demand the continuation of the U.S. Patriot Act, which is crucial for our country in this time of worldwide catastrophe. Gonzales has also hardly been in office so how can you begin to bash his record and say that he will be worse than Ashcroft? Yes, Ashcroft is a brilliant guy, although so is Gonzales, he will prove to be a worthy choice for that position, you just watch in the next three years to come.

I will be quite pleased if "Gonzales will not become a Justice any time soon." Trust me on that one. I disagree strongly with you about Gonzales being a better AG than Ashcroft. The latter was an excellent AG and I fail to understand what the former has done to convince you that he is a perfect choice for AG. Let me just clarify that the post is based on Kristol's speculation that it will indeed be O'Connor who steps down next week. Like you, I would have thought it far more likely that Rehnquist, who's done an admirable job, would have been the to retire. We will soon find out who's right. Richard,

Justice O' Conner has no near future plans of stepping down whatsoever. Chief Justice Rehnquist is and has been in poor health for a while now and the fact is, he will more than likely soon step down. Justice O' Conner was only appointed to the Supreme Court in the 1980's by President Reagan about twenty years ago, when Chief Justice Rehnquist was appointed by President Nixon over thirty years ago. The fact is Rehnquist is getting up there in age, and Alberto Gonzales will not become a Justice any time soon. I believe that Gonzales is a perfect choice for Attorney General and may even prove himself to become even better than former Attorney General Ashcroft, which in my belief will not be hard to do.
