Holier and Out

Looks like John Ashcroft is headed for the dustbin of history. In case you don't remember, Ashcroft became Attorney General because Bush wanted to toss him a bone after Ashcroft lost his Senate seat to a dead opponent. The Bush family tends to practice an acquaintance-based nepotism that seems to work well for them but badly for the country, since Ashcroft, for example, hasn't managed to get a single conviction for terrorism in three years. Just one more example of this administration's incompetence and hypocrisy. "Tough" on terror, but totally inept in actually reducing it.
