 WASHINGTON (AP) - The Senate Judiciary Committee postponed Tuesday's questioning of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on the firings of eight federal prosecutors, saying the proceedings would be inappropriate in light of the Virginia Tech shootings. Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy made the decision to postpone the long-awaited hearing, said Tracy Schmaler, spokeswoman for the Vermont Democrat. The hearing is considered Gonzales' last chance to quiet a controversy that has prompted calls in both parties for his resignation.
