I was watching MSNBC yesterday and a reporter or, suppose to be, was saying Ashcraft was in the back poket or the NRA and this is the reason gun records were not checked on the suspects. I came unglued, its the law, not the NRA. Why oh why is there so much hate towords Ashcroft, he is a good man and doing his job well.

Well written and to the point. Thanks for posting this editorial. I particularly enjoyed the likening of the Clintonistas to a Chinese Tong. Given their Chinese/Indonesian connections, a subtle and telling description.

Leahy and his Democrat pals have always had 2 rules of law -- whatever Clinton did (and other Democrats for that matter) in violation of the law was justified because they were liberal -- whatever Republicans do in strict support of the law is not justified because they are conservatives. That rule is the only one that makes sense of Leahy's inability to be consistent and demand observance of the law from all regardless of party or politics. Leahy reduces himself to an apologist for the left, for Democrats and for the Clintons in particular. Pardon terrorists, lie under oath, sell the Lincoln bedroom -- whatever -- just so your name ends in Clinton and you're a Democrat, it's okay. Leahy needs to be defeated and removed from the Senate.

Clinton's defenders don't have the credibility to criticize Ashcroft. Clinton's defenders don't have the credibility to file a loan application, if it comes to that. But does this mean Ashcroft is beyond criticism? The administration's declaration that rights come from citizenship is a death-blow to the idea of natural law, without which the American experiment has no moral base.

What an absolutely wonderful article to wake up to on a Monday morning. Finally a voice of some weight has broken through the fog of the Clinton years to reveal the incredible landscape of the Clinton White House to the non-believers.
The WSJ has at long last taken off the gloves and begun to excoriate the warts belonging to those in power, starting with Bill Clinton and Janet Reno and Ms. Clinton. It is mind boggling to hear and watch Senator Leahy who lay himself at the feet of corruption for Bill Clinton and the DNC defending a man who so adulterated and defiled his office, try to place John Ashcroft in a disfavoring light. The senator should have cared enough about his country, the constitution and the rule of law at the time to throw Janet Reno out. He did not! Nor did Senator Kennedy and the rest of the Clinton defenders. They put party before principal, politics and self before the American People.
John Ashcroft has put them all to shame. President Bush has had to mop up after this mess while governing and leading a bedraggled country into the light. Now because of Clinton policy, President Bush's job as defender and protector of America, (something Clinton never did) is many times more difficult, he must also fight terrorism around the world.
Thank heavens, for the clear thinking of President Bush and his choice of people to run the country. Because of them, we will win this war on terrorism and Bush will return this country to its former bright and beautiful self.
My condolences to the Democratic Party and its "ME" factions like the Black Caucus and the Democratic Socialists of America.

Great Post. Slowly but surely the fence sitters who would not speak or vote against anything Clinton while the economy was booming and the press was covering, are at long last waking up. It is reflected in the mood of the country, any poll you want to look at and in the popularity of news programs that are at least somehat balanced. The stench of the past eight years has finally been detected by those who pinched their noses for too long. Thank God.

Thanks for the post. A bump to the top as this writer absolutely lays bare the hypocrisy of the majority of the Democrat leadership in government and the media.

I am personally offended by Ashcroft's statement. I have some reservations about his plans and, yes, some may be unconstitutional. It appears to be a step towards the final stripping of 4th Amendment rights.
However, just because I care about rights in my country, this pr!ck is going to accuse me, a war veteran, of aiding the enemy? Did you notice how close his wording got to "aid and comfort"? He's just this close to accusing millions of loyal Americans of treason.
Food for thought from "A Man for All Seasons":
Roper: So now you'd give the Devil benefit of law. More: Yes. What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get after the Devil?
Roper: I'd cut down every law in England to do that.
More: Oh? And when the law was down--and the Devil turned round on you--where would you hide? Yes, I'd give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety's sake.
