Attorney R. General

Joshua Glenn wonders in the Boston Globe today why the adminsitration will not release what the R in "Alberto R. Gonzales" stands for. What's Gonzales got to hide?

Joshua guesses that R might stand for Rosebud, Ragnar, Reuben, Rico, Romeo or Rudyard. Or pehaps, he says, it's something French such as Rémy, Robbe-Grillet. Or perhaps Roewade, Rove or Rambo.

Personally, I think it's Alberto Roosevelt Gonzales, but I'm open to speculation.
