Very interesting:

At post #3, RJCogburn says

Ashcroft remains a sanctimonious fraud and a dangerous man.

But, then at #10, he says

It makes a whole lot more sense, IMO, to discuss the message, argue against it if you will, rather than just use ad hominem criticism which seems to me the lazy way and convinces nobody who does not already agree.

Did I miss something, RJ, or is it just that you are the only one who carries a license for launching ad hominem attacks?

Sorry, officer, I must have left my license at home. ;^)

Since you asked.....

Ashcroft, while presenting himself as a moral person of faith who will always do the right thing and seek justice,disbanded the campaign finance task force...which means Chinagate...which means our national security. Or, does Ashcroft just get top pick which aspects of national security he will sanctify with his blessing.

Ashcroft sent away Robert Conrad, the head of the task force. It was Conrad, you may recall, who told JReno to appoint an IC to investigate Gore.

Still wearing his righteous hat, Ashcroft signed off on the deal that fined the shareholders of Loral $millions while agreeing to let the criminals go free.

Ashcroft, snactimonious as always, chose to ignore government corruption in the matters of the lynx fur scandal and the BIA backdating scandals....though one would expect a truely moral, righteous, dedicated public servant to pursue corruption in the government he has swore to serve, 'so help me God'.

Moving along, he decided to overturn the will of the people of a sovereign state by his own fiat, even though that will had been clearly expressed in referendum, dangerously to the concept of liberty. (I'm speaking about Oregon, for those who may not have been paying attention.) He decided to block release of information of the abuses in the Boston FBI office, where the criminals are protected and the innocent incarcerated.

His current plan would allow him to incarcerate you at his whim. Oh, yes, he is a both a sanctimonious fraud and a dangerous man, alright.
