Gonzales to Spend More Time Eavesdropping on His Family 

‘Domestic Surveillance Begins at Home,’ Former A.G. Says

Attorney General Alberto Gonzales resigned today, effective immediately, 
telling reporters that he wanted to spend more time eavesdropping on his family. 


Mr. Gonzales, a champion of domestic surveillance and warrantless wiretaps 
while in office, said he was “totally stoked” about turning his prying eyes 
on his own family. 

“Domestic surveillance begins at home,” Mr. Gonzales said at a White House 
press conference. “That means nobody in my family is above suspicion, not 
even the little ones,” an apparent reference to Mr. Gonzales’ children. 

Standing by Mr. Gonzales’ side, President George W. Bush praised his former 
Attorney General, singling out his “courage” for ramping up his domestic 
spying program on his own family. 

“If every head of every household was as willing to eavesdrop on his own 
family as my man Alberto is, we wouldn’t need a Homeland Security Department,” 
Mr. Bush chuckled. 

Mr. Gonzales was noncommittal when a reporter asked him a question about the 
role that waterboarding and other forms of torture might play in his 
interrogation of family members. 

“Nothing is off the table,” he said. 

Asked about his tenure as Attorney General, Mr. Gonzales was candid about 
his stormy time in office: “Frankly, I can’t believe it took this long for 
them to shitcan me.”
