Fed up with having his picture taken during events in the Justice Department's Great Hall in front of semi-nude statues, Attorney General John Ashcroft has reportedly ordered massive draperies to conceal the offending figures -- which have been displayed since the 1930s!
The draperies were installed last week at a cost of just over $8,000, reports ABCNEWS.com's Beverley Lumpkin.
At the center of the controversy: two enormous and stylized but largely naked aluminum statues.
The female figure represents the Spirit of Justice; the male on the right is the Majesty of Justice. The male is clad in only a cloth draped over his essential parts; the female wears a sort of toga-style garment, but one breast is entirely exposed.
Last November, during a press conference announcing new challenges of fighting terrorism, Ashcroft was photographed with the naked breast right over his shoulder!
The snap ran in major papers.

So what!? Who gives a flying fig what the freakin' left stereotypes the right as or what they brandish against us!? By changing one's desired actions so as to avoid the derision of the left you give the left that much power over you. I say 'To Hell with the left!'
Screen name ,has always been to mock impeached EX-potus- toon as in airforce 1
LOL!
Really? Never heard of "wet nurses"?
WOW! Is that a THREAT? I guess I'll have to give up my goal in life.
Please keep your fantasies to yourself and not include me in them.
I dunno. Where are you going to see all these paintings? Or are they a part of your personal collection? At any rate,there ARE men who find fat women sexually attractive. Look at the ass on Jennifer Lopez for proof of this. LOTS of people are running around talking about how "hot" she is,and it looks like she has her own ass and another one she stole from some fat chick stuffed into her pants.While I can't say I prefer fat women myself,I do MUCH prefer a woman 10 or 20 lbs overweight to one 10 or 20 lbs underweight.
Actually, just TWO replacements would do the job quite nicely. Two giant Furbies. Naked, dressed and cute at the same time.
