Ok I’m confused. What made Ashcroft the most reviled man in left America? I’m trying to figure it out and I’m stumped. I can’t see what he did as attorney general that was so horrible.

He was religious…ok….
He shouldn’t sing…ok….

Where does the hate come from, it doesn’t compute. Looking at some wacky left wing web sites all I can find is hate of the man, and hate based on him being religious. There are of course the irrational fears about the patriot act, but Ashcroft didn’t pass it, its not his job to debate it but to implement it.

So splain to me what’s the problem with Ashcroft?
