NRO On Gonzales

If you search for "Gonzales" or "prosecutor" on The Corner, there's not one mention of the prosecutor firing scandal - which currently leads the Fox News web site, CNN, NYT, Washington Post, USA Today, etc. Hell, even Reynolds' site is talking about it. It's incontestably, far and away the biggest news of the day, but as of now on NRO it doesn't exist.

Might this warrant a new "award" - for the current story so politically damaging to Republicans that it must not be whispered on NRO? Maybe the "Gonzales Award?" (Or is that taken?)

An intriguing idea. But they're just waiting for the talking points. Personally, I use the Corner as a check on whether an issue is actually hurting Republicans. If they don't talk about it, it's usually serious. If it's really serious, they tell jokes.
