WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal prosecutor in a major terrorism case in Detroit has taken the rare step of suing Attorney General John Ashcroft, alleging the Justice Department interfered with the case, compromised a confidential informant and exaggerated results in the war on terrorism.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard Convertino of Detroit accused the Justice Department of "gross mismanagement" of the war on terrorism in a whistleblower lawsuit filed late Friday in federal court in Washington.

http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2004-02-17-ashcroft-sued_x.htmThese guys really are incompetent. Ashcroft is like Colonel Klink without the cool hat. It's pretty scary actually that these guys are in charge of finding the terrorists. I used to think that they weren't incompetent and that things were going according to plan, but now, I dunno what to think. They actually compromised yet ANOTHER (think Plame) source of catching terrorists!
