Embattled U-S Attorney General Alberto Gonzales will be in Atlanta Thursday to speak to the National Association of Attorneys General. His predecessor, John Ashcroft, spoke to the group yesterday.
Ashcroft addressed the current scandal of the firings of eight federal prosecutors, saying the issue has not hurt the Justice Department. Congress is looking into whether politics played a role in the firings, under the current leadership of Gonzales.
