	Flashback by Ramesh Ponnuru on Alberto Gonzales on National Review Online
		Gonzales was raised, with seven siblings, in a two-bedroom house in Houston.
		Appointing Gonzales to office seems to have become a habit for Bush: He has since served as the secretary of state for Texas, a justice on the Texas supreme court, and now White House counsel.
		Gonzales won high marks for sending the ABA a tough but civil letter informing it of the decision.

	Speedy Gonzales & The Rule of Law
		Gonzales stands as the apostle of torture in the administrative councils of the American policy.
		And, in fact, Gonzales' staff played a role in preparing the memo which found those loopholes: Timothy E Flanigan, his deputy counsel, talked about a draft of the memorandum with lawyers at the Office of Legal Counsel before it was finalized.
		The fact that Gonzales solicited and then passed along advice which defined prohibitions against torture as quaint and obsolete is not as egregious as the fact that he passed that advice along without saying, 'This is a legal opinion, but anyone can offer an opinion.

		The original Speedy had a gold tooth and no hat (his hat would be one of his trademarks later)was thin and not like what we know today.
		After his debut appearance Speedy was not seen much until 1955 when Freleng and Halwley Pratt redesigned his look and attitude into the famous Speedy of today with his bright eyes and huge sombrero.
		Speedy Gonzales first appeared in 1953 in "Cat-Tails for Two," an animated short directed by Robert McKimson from a story by Tedd Pierce.

	Matthew Hunter's Unofficial Speedy Gonzales Page
		Speedy himself is never seen smoking, and only two cartoons show characters consuming alcohol, and in both of these Speedy cuts them off and, in one, the Academy Award-nominated Robert McKimson classic, "Tabasco Road", escorts them home.
		The Speedy cartoons were directed exclusively by Friz Freleng and Robert McKimson until 1965 (when Friz Freleng and David H. Depatie began producing Looney Tunes from a new studio, and commissioning several Speedy and Roadrunner shorts from Rudy Larriva at Format Films).
		The last time Speedy Gonzales was seen on the network was during late-night and Saturday morning showings in the fall of 2000, but then only a few cartoons appeared and only once.

	Speedy Gonzales Fan Site - About Speedy Gonzales (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Speedy Gonzales (or Gonzalez), "the fastest mouse in all Mexico", is an animated cartoon mouse from the Warner Brothers Looney Tunes series of cartoons.
		In the 1960s, Speedy's main nemesis became Daffy Duck - a move which some fans consider an unusual combination (Sylvester's appropriateness, being a cat, was never questioned) and as depicting the already morally ambiguous duck as excessively malicious.
		Speedy's cartoons have come under fire in recent years for their alleged stereotypical depictions of Mexicans and Mexican life.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Speedy Gonzales
		It was in his second cartoon, Speedy Gonzales (1955), directed by Friz Freleng, that he was re-designed as the sleek little speedster we all know today.
		It was an unfortunate partnership, but an enduring one — for the remainder of his career as a cartoon star, Speedy shared billing with Daffy.
		Speedy Gonzales has not been a prominent part of the Looney Tunes revival (he didn't even have a speaking role in Space Jam), possibly because of fears that he might offend members of the Hispanic community.

		Now is it just me, or do Hispanics who love Speedy and consider the "fastest mouse in all Mexico" a good role model and a hero to many Hispanics or do just they find him offensive?It seems that Mr.Cunningham does not have a clue on what he's talking about.

		Anyway, I wouldn't consider Speedy to be a negative stereotype at all.
