Meanwhile Gonzales came under more scrutiny Tuesday when Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, filed a complaint with the State Bar of Texas requesting an investigation into misrepresentations Gonzales made in a written response to the Senate Judiciary Committee. The complaint alleges that Gonzales inaccurately portrayed what happened when he appeared before a Texas court in 1996 representing Bush who was then Governor of Texas. Newsweek reports that Gonzales was in court to ask a judge to strike Bush from jury duty, claiming, that as governor, Bush might one day be asked to pardon the defendant. The judge reportedly found the argument QUOTE “extremely unlikely” but allowed Bush off jury duty. Had Bush been on the jury he would have been forced to disclose the fact that he had been arrested for drunk driving in Maine in 1976. The arrest remained secret until just days before the 2000 election.
