A lot of good those contributions did him, he still lost to a dead guy. And you thought Gore was stiff! LOL

I'm sure he will have himself investigated and charged. It is good to know we have people of Christian moral fiber running our Justice Department


Edit: There is always the possibility as will be suggested further into the thread, that he's not personally responsible.

As much as I detest Ashcroft it might be a case where his underlings or campaign staff were at fault, not him.

Yeah but we can still blame him.

His meritorious service redounds, however, to the credit of his appointer.
