Alberto Gonzales found a job teaching at Texas Tech
AAS Postcards blog 7/7/09
Alberto Gonzales, former U.S. attorney general, expected to teach at Texas Tech University

By W. Gardner Selby | Tuesday, July 7, 2009, 01:27 PM

Alberto Gonzales, who resigned as the Bush administration’s embattled attorney general nearly two years ago, has lined up a fall-semester teaching spot at Texas Tech University, the university confirmed today.

Gonzales, who was Gov. George W. Bush’s lawyer and Texas secretary of state before joining Bush in Washington, will be working in the university’s 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.

I’m trying to reach Gonzales as well.

He recently told The Houston Chronicle that he wanted to re-settle in Houston or Austin and work on a book recapping his ups and downs by Bush’s side. "You serve and you move on," he’s quoted saying here.


Isn't that special? I wonder what kind of "special topics" course he's going to teach. Maybe the defense of torture? :grr:

Poor Texas Tech.

3. He's certainly got that down pat
Hell of a lot of good it did him. Wasn't he out of work for about 2 years?

On second thought, I bet the G.W. Bush reference did him some good at Texas Tech. :shrug:
