We have made much commentary about the fact that pretend democrat Ken Salazar was a great fan of Alberto Gonzales back in the good ol days, when the only scandal Alberto had to worry about was advocating torture.
(Fortunately a little thing like torture and violating the Constitution didn´t get in the way of having our very own first Hispanic attorney general….

But even the most loyal Hispanic friend can turn against you in the Washington political winds (even after sitting next to you during your confirmation hearing and sending notes back and forth) … especially if that friend actually has to get reelected some day…. so here it is:
Salazar Tells Gonzales to Resign
He says the Department of Justice is too Politicized
Senator Ken Salazar is calling on Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to resign saying the Department of Justice had become too politicized.
He joins a growing number of democrats and a handful of republicans saying gonzales should step down amid allegations that federal prosecutors were fired for political reasons.
But don´t worry, at least Salazar clears up that this bold move, of calling for the ouster of someone that everybody hates already, was done with un corazón partido…
Salazar considers Gonzales a friend and says he sees so much of the American dream in his story of growing up poor and going on to Harvard. (and married a blond)
Salazar says he called Gonzales to inform him of his decision today saying he reached it with a quote “heavy heart and disappointment.’
What next? will Hispanic “civil rights” organizations like the National Council of la Raza turn against you to? No need to worry…
(As I was writing this breaking news happened… Gonzales to replace Wolfowitz at the World Bank)
By the way here is the text of Salazar at Gonzales confirmation hearing before the sad break up…

Unfortunately my real job is interfering with my important blogging activities so I don´t have a chance to add my snide comments to each and everyone of these important stories. The oneliners will have to do:
Gingrich doesn´t even like Hispanics who speak English only.
You know its bad when Latinos want token Latinos to resign
Richardson López is running for Secretary of State by visiting the axis of evil
The Balarts keep forgetting they can talk about topics other than Cuba.
AND Ken Salazar keeps forgetting that as a pretend Democrat he doesn’t always have to vote as a Republican
As we mentioned way back, the 100 Primer Impacto Hours agenda for the Hispanic Caucus included getting us an Official Museum to exhibit Selena’s dresses and all that Chicano art on loan from Cheech Marin.
And yes, our very own museum is moving forward, faster than immigration reform or universal healthcare.
Now you may think this is a non-controversial bill, with not much conflict in sight (other than where the hell are they going to find room for it on the Mall).
Well, think again.
According to our nonbinding unconfirmed sources, there is growig tension among Hispanic legislators who, despite their public bipartisan bigender support of the Museum, are privately shouting at each other and arguing about everything from the name of the building to the order in which the 7 foot wax statues of themselves will appear.
(It is only a matter of time before the gringo media does this story, so please credit us exclusively, with the exclusive details you will only find here).
Here are some of the names they are fighting over:
- The Cesar Chavez Chicano Si Se Puede Museo, proposed by Hilda Solís
- The Si Se Puede Cesar Chavez Museum of La Raza, proposed by Joe Baca
- The Cesar Chavez-Dolores Huerta-Ricardo Montalbán Si Se Puede Museum, proposed by Grace Napolitano
- The Elvira Arellano Latino Immigrant Contributions To America Museum, proposed by Luis Gutiérrez
- The Hispanic-American Third World Country Museum of Freedom, proposed by Ileana Ros Lethinen
- The We Have Been Here for Five Generations Museum, proposed by Ken Salazar
- The Latino-Chicano-Mexitlán Museo de Nuestra Raza, proposed by Lucille Roybal Allard
- The Valentina Frida Kahlo Latina Power Museum, proposed by Loretta Sanchez
- The Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe Virgen Morena Patrona de América Museum, proposed by Ciro Rodríguez
- The Humble Beginings From a Dirt Floor In Texas to the Mall Museum, proposed by Silvestre Reyes
- The Xavier Becerra Nuestro Orgullo National Latino Museum on the Mall, proposed by Xavier Becerra
Some of the exhibits and items that may be featured:

As Hispanic Caucases are desintegrating by the minute, we are pleased to announce that a new one has just formed (17 years ago)!!!!
Under the name of Senate Democratic Hispanic Task Force (HTF) which has 2 co-chairs and no members, Bob Menéndez and Ken Salazar will: build a bridge between the Hispanic community and the Senate Democratic Caucus by promoting important policy issues.
We are sooooo excited about this, and so is Menéndez:
“With more Hispanics serving in the U.S. Senate than ever before (3), this is indeed an historic opportunity for Hispanics and for our nation,†Menendez said.
Considering this caucus, Task Force has 2 male members, both Senators, gives it a better chance of survival… However we are keeping our fingers crossed.
UPDATE-CORRECTION: One of our alert readers has pointed out, that this is not a new group, despite our total lack of awareness of it. It was formed way back in 1989 by gringo Senator Jeff Bingaman of New México, and actually has members, other than the 2 co-chairs.
They also have a website that says Joe Lieberman is in charge.

Pretend democrat Ken Salazar is up to 89 in some Senate ranking system.
He used to be last. Apparently because of his new status, he can pick a better seat and no longer has to sit in the back of the room.
Comes to show that speaking Spanish can be good for your career.
(On the House side, Grace Napolitano, still last on virtual congress internets game)
