Specter calls Gonzales testimony 'very damaging'« Thread Started on Apr 22, 2007, 11:06pm » --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Specter calls Gonzales testimony 'very damaging'POSTED: 6:03 p.m. EDT, April 22, 2007 read at source> http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/04/22/ ... WASHINGTON (AP) -- Attorney General Alberto Gonzales has hurt the Bush administration and the Justice Department with his poor handling of the firing of eight federal prosecutors, a leading Republican said Sunday.Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said Gonzales was certainly undermining himself and his agency's law enforcement efforts."The attorney general's testimony was very, very damaging to his own credibility. It has been damaging to the administration," Specter said of Gonzales' appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee this past week. "No doubt, it is bad for the Department of Justice. It is harmful. There has been a very substantial decrease in morale."But Specter stopped short of adding his name to the growing ranks of lawmakers, both Democrat and Republican, calling on Gonzales to resign.
