What is going on with Ashcroft?

[coloradodem2005]

People here seem happy in relation to him. What's the deal?

1. He could end up being held in Contempt of Congress

after his testimony in the Senate Judiciary Committee today.

2. The administration has cut him off, he is no longer Bush's Favorite

and he himself (while still a partisan Bastard) is beginning to look dissappointed in Bush...

3. well, he appeared before a Senate committee

and REFUSED to answer questions, refused to release documents and managed to piss off even the repugs on the committee.

he was an arrogant, "who cares what you think" POS and he may be called on 'contempt of congress' by Joe Biden among others.

if c-span repeats, it is QUITE a show!

5. Don't let the door hit you....

I think he's next OTD (out the door)

6. Biden let him know in an angry tone of voice

that abiding by treaties regarding the treatment of POW's helps protect US military that may be captured, and he mentioned his son in the military.
