http://thinkprogress.org/2007/05/14/mcnulty-i-did-it-for-my-kids
"NBC News chief Justice correspondent Pete Williams reported that McNulty wrote a letter to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, in which he explains, “I intend to step down sometime this summer. The financial realities of college-aged children and two decades of public service lead me to a long-overdue transition in my career.” - thewaz, on 10/11/2007, -3/+14Bush and Gonzales should be the ones to go! they probably bribed this guy with a nice severance package to take the blame hoping it will stop at him. don't let it stop..
- CaptainNoPants, on 10/11/2007, -3/+12Not really breaking at this point, is it?
- EntropyMan, on 10/11/2007, -6/+14"McNulty: I did it for my kids."
(aka The "Domestic Rehab" Exit)
Translation: I didn't want my kids growing up thinking I was a crook, like my bosses.
However, I don't know if this will save him that much in legal expenses. - ronito, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10Headline should read: BREAKING: Bush Administration finds Fall Guy for Attorney Gate.
- kushed, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6"I need to spent more time with my family" = Please don't sent me to jail, think of my children.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -6/+10The thing that bugs me when people use "Breaking" in the title is that by the time people start noticing, the article is already 20 hours old and far from being breaking news.
- shawnfassett, on 10/11/2007, -5/+9Does Gonzo have some family that he could spend extra time with???
- edrift101, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3It would be interesting if McNulty came forward to clear his name.
Hey McNulty, if you're reading Digg - do it for the American people! We want these bastards to be held accountable for their illegal actions. - EntropyMan, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Gonzo is still in office. So how is it not relevant?
- Alphabet, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Ugh, resigning won't do a thing. He'll probably just be given another cushy job elsewhere. I want his ass to go to jail as well as all the other criminals.
- Dumbledorito, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3There's no reason why you both can't be right.
- thewaz, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3"paul mcnulty" leaving is hardly a sign of them crumbling.. rove is cracking though, and hopefully if the dems step it up a notch the house of cards will fall
- mlvassallo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I wish his name was "McNutley".
One typo away from Comedy Gold. - krebcycle, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Thanks entropyman, I hadn't seen that stuff. I saw that he was resigning last night, and nobody had blamed him yet. I can't believe I wasn't cynical enough to believe that yet.
- Dustin00, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2This is a distraction and not news (thus not being announced on Friday) -- no digg. Apparently Rove gave Gonzo the nod to try throwing an underling under the bus.
FIRE GONZO NOW! - EntropyMan, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3"He's not resigning and taking the blame."
True. But Gonzales is giving it to him anyway:

Especially the Americans among us, and with good reason, might I add. And this ploy is another to tack up on the wall of shame. - edrift101, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Just was listening to Gonzales while he shuffled all the blame over to this guy. I hope he got paid well to take the fall for the criminals in charge.
- krebcycle, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3He's not resigning and taking the blame. He's resigning to distance himself from it. He said a while back he would resign, but remain in position until they could find a replacement.
- HyperJack, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3This isn't breaking. Just count the number of people who give a ***** what is going on with the "bush administration".
Nearly everyone on here hates the "bush administration", even the Americans among us. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3If only he would take his boss and the other cronies with him...
- krebcycle, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2He's not the fall guy, he's resigning to distance himself from the scandal. He wants nothing to do with it.
- ichbinladen, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1BREAKING: Farts stink.
- jimmy72, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1It's a lot like a pack of roaches right as the kitchen light comes on. Has someone coined the term, "cut and run conservatives?"
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Those who say everything is fine and dandy in the Bush administration don't know *****.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Those who say everything is going fine and dandy in the Bush administration don't know *****.
- thewaz, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2he wanted to spend more time with beady.
- krebcycle, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I'm just surprised to find I'm not as cynical as I thought I was.
- lukehh, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1no, we want Gonzales!
- polyGone, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2He means buried as 'bad publicity for the party I hold so dear'.
- dattaway, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1And in this case, "breaking" means its fixed. Breaking is broken in this case.
- EntropyMan, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1@kreb, it's better not to be too cynical. Blind cynicism is just as dangerous as blind faith.
- wheresjim, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2And this is why you don't put "Breaking" in your title, it took 21 hours for this to reach the front page, and the story is pretty well broke. You are not Matt Drudge!
- EntropyMan, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1You *are* both right. See my links above for the video and another article on what Gonzales is now saying...
We shall see, krebcycle, if McNulty takes the scapegoating quietly, or defends himself. - Orderplex, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0...who?
- Dumbledorito, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2McNulty's good police! Just reinstate the warrant for the wire, and he'll bring down Marlo!
- Wartz, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1am I just a sicko or did anyone else read "General McNudity" in the title?
- runbmd, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1BREAKING: Man lands on the Moon!
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0@meltingrobot,
Every story at some point is "breaking" and every story at some point becomes old news. When the story was submitted it was breaking news. Not everyone waits to read stories that only make the front page. If you are, you're sometimes a day or two behind. So don't be so surprised when you see breaking and sometimes it happened a little while ago. - EntropyMan, on 10/11/2007, -4/+3In fact, it's been sitting near or at the top of the upcoming queue for a very long time. Only six hours to go before it dies on the vine and the fools who bury any URL with the word 'progress' in it get their way.
Digg really needs to fix this limbo land. Stories reach the top of the queue, sit there for half a day, and then disappear. At least put them on a "didn't make the front page" page for posterity sake. Currently, the only way to find interesting stories that got buried by 'the brigade' is see what friends have clicked on. Kind of hit and miss. - Chetan7, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0Hopefully Bush is next...
- Jaymoon, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1@EntropyMan
If you want to see the SPAM that got buried...
Digg has put it all on one convenient page: http://digg.com/users/pitviper/news/submitted - mlock2k, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1This was yesterday.
Buried as not relivant anyomore - meltingrobot, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1@jsearch
Well then, with that knowledge, the submitter should stop putting "Breaking" in the title if he/she knows it is going to no longer be just released news when it hits the front page. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -5/+3it was either going to be the kids,
or to pursue opportunities in the private sector - Fhionnlaoch, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1Ever play that map in Battlefield Vietnam with the NVA propaganda: "It is best to leave a sinking ship."
There was also something like, "Your bombers will destroy you, GI. They will give you medals only after you have died."
Once again, video games prove relavent to modern political discourse. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1My favorite color is grey, so really, you're just doing me a favor.
