Silence in the Senate

The editors of The New York Times write: "The most remarkable thing about the debate on Attorney General Alberto Gonzales this week was what didn't happen. Barely a word was said in praise of him or his management of the Justice Department. The message was clear even though the Republicans prevented a no-confidence vote through the threat of a filibuster - a tactic that until recently they claimed to abhor. The sound of Mr. Gonzales not being defended was deafening."
