Omega, you've failed to provide any evidence that he will actually do this.
Having said that, there are worse people Bush could have chosen. And Ashcroft apparently (according to Salon, no less!) has a good record when it comes to privacy issues. I'm not too worried, frankly. If we kept everyone with stupid ideas out of D.C., there wouldn't be a D.C.

Hey, you're the ones claiming he won't enforce the law. I'm simply pointing out that there's no reason to believe that he won't. As for my belief that he will, that's just me. I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt.

And you know so much about my character as to make that determination? You make yet another baseless assertation.
If you were so inclined as to go back through every post I've ever made here, you'd find that I usually only attack liberal ideas, and the few liberal people I've attacked I've had darned good reasons. I've never attacked liberal people on the basis that they're liberal. I give people the benefit of the doubt, unless I have some reason not to.

I seem to remember you on one occasion saying that by attacking your ideas, YOU were being attacked personally. Now it's the other way around, eh?

I seem to remember asking about flaming ones opinion and ones character, several people, Omegao also, said that a persons opinions/beliefs being flamed isn't the same as the person getting flamed. I still think that flaming opinions is the same as flaming a person.
