Ashcroft = Bush's biggest mistake

Strangely, Asscroft used to be the sort of patriot that would have reacted strongly, even angrily, to anyone who would have attempted these sort of power grabs and this sort of Bill of Rights abrogation.

The fact he has done a 180 degree turn and now loudly favors a fascist state tells me they coopted him somehow. Now way he'd go against his core belief system for a few hundred thou a year.

".... to those who scare peace-loving people with phantoms of lost liberty, my message is this: Your tactics only aid terrorists for they erode our national unity and diminish our resolve," -- John Ashcroft December 6, 2001

"Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to greater danger." -- Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials
