Stimulus Funds Finally Working

It's true. Just ask former United States Attorney General and George W. Bush lackey Alberto Gonzales. It seems like there was nowhere for ol' Torquemada to go after leaving the Bush administration Department of Justice (or as Sarah Palin would call it "your department of law there in the White House"). No one would hire him. We all thought it was because he had subverted the rule of law, claimed he had no idea what was going on at the DoJ or didn't know who was actually running things in his office. But now I realize that it was the result of the very early stages of the recession. Now that President Obama's recovery package has started to disburse funds, good ol' Fredo has found employment.

Gonzales, who was Gov. George W. Bush’s lawyer, Texas secretary of state and then a Texas Supreme Court justice before joining Bush in Washington, will be working as an visiting professor in the political science department, teaching a “special topics” course on contemporary issues in the executive branch, according to Dora Rodriguez, a senior business assistant in the department.
...Lawrence Schovanec, interim dean of Texas Tech’s College of Arts and Sciences, was quoted saying: “Judge Gonzales brings a unique experience to our classroom. His career in law, government and public service will provide our political science students a rich perspective of the executive branch and issues and challenges facing our nation.
