John Ashcroft: Pr0n Warrior
John Ashcroft has decided that the most pressing threat in America is…
Tits. That’s right, tits. And everything that goes along with them. This is the man who spent OUR money to cover up a statue because it had an exposed breast. He is now turning the massive budget and power of the Justice Department on pornography. Not just child-porn, or rape films, or snuff films either. He’s coming for your Playboys, too. Oh, and Maxim. How much you wanna bet he doesn’t do anything about all those damn dick-pill ads that pollute my TiVo on Sunday afternoons.
I don’t know what George was thinking when he picked this guy, but Ashcroft’s gotta go. Problem is, anybody other than Bush is likely to get this country decimated by terrorists. Attorney General needs to be an elected position.
Volokh says everything I think about this, and far better than I ever could.
