Gonzales Hearing Postponed Following Virgina Tech Tragedy

The Senate Judiciary Committee has just issued the following statement on postponing Tuesday's heaing with Attorney General Alberto Gonzales:

“We have consulted with the Attorney General and all understand it is appropriate to postpone Attorney General Gonzales’s appearance before the Judiciary Committee until Thursday, in light of the tragic events that occurred Monday at Virginia Polytechnic Institute.  Our thoughts and our prayers are with the victims of this senseless and horrific tragedy, their families and the Virginia Tech community.”
