Ashcroft: Some Justice

NBC Nightly News had quite a piece tonight indicating that John Ashcroft snapped at people saying he didn't want to hear anymore about terrorism or Al Qaeda before 9/11, that he blew off Clinton people trying to give up warnings and his own people who seemed to bore Mr. Ashcroft.

Soon, Mr. Ashcroft will leave office, wanting to spend more time with his family. You know, 40 yr old sons demand a lot of time, wanting you to play ball and take 'em to McDonalds and shit like that.

Of course, if you wanted to take the snicker out of saying "the Department of Justice under John Ashcroft", you'd kick Ashcroft out on his pious ass and perhaps send him down to Gitmo for six months of those lovely fruit baskets and "leisurely barbecue field trips" the right wing tells us occurs there instead of torture. I wonder if Gitmo is large enough to hold the entire administration.
