Attorney General Alberto Gonzales rejected growing calls for his resignation Tuesday as scores of newly released documents detailed a two-year campaign by the Justice Department and White House to purge federal prosecutors.

He said he was ultimately to blame for those "mistakes" but stood by the firings. Democrats have suggested the dismissals were politically motivated.
