"In recent months, Mr. Ashcroft, once regarded as a peripheral, even clumsy, player in the Bush administration, has not only honed his skills as a bureaucratic infighter, he has also patched his tenuous relations with President Bush, who told Mr. Ashcroft last month that he was doing "a fabulous job." With the addition of nearly 5,000 law enforcement officials from the firearms bureau, Mr. Ashcroft has again expanded the policing authority of the Justice Department, a hallmark of his tenure as attorney general. And with the fight against terrorism as his soapbox, he has pushed the powers of federal law enforcement in directions few thought possible before the Sept. 11 attacks. His reach extends not only to counterterrorism, but also to issues like the death penalty and gun policy, which he attacks with equal aggressiveness. Despite a years-long effort as a senator from Missouri to shrink government, Mr. Ashcroft has significantly broadened the reach of the attorney general, legal scholars and law enforcement officials agree. All of which has left his many critics increasingly worried.
"Even some of his conservative peers complain that Mr. Ashcroft may have grown too powerful. To his critics, Mr. Ashcroft is a Big Brother figure: an attorney general whose expanding scope has allowed the Justice Department to use wiretaps, backroom decisions, and an expanded street presence to spy on ordinary Americans, read their e-mail messages, or monitor their library checkouts, all in the name of fighting terrorism [and the WOSD failure] And the department's consideration of proposals that could give it still greater, secret counterterrorism authority has provoked a fresh round of concerns. The former Republican congressman Dick Armey, on his way out the door last year as House majority leader, said he thought Mr. Ashcroft and the Justice Department were "out of control."
Ashcroft is an incompetent patrician legislator who has NO CLUE about how to enforce laws...he just wants MORE LAWS!! He needs to RESIGN and let someone do the job who ain't aFRaid to do what needs to be done!!
