JOHN ASS-CROFT UNDER THE MICROSCOPE
I really can't do it any better than Eleanor Clift has done in this week's Newsweek... so I strongly urge you to check out her column here about John Ashcroft's selective enforcement of federal regulations... specifically, how he'll subpoena the medical records of women who've had late term abortions, but issued a directive ordering law enforcement personnel to destroy records of gun licenses within 24 hours where they had been allowed to keep them up to 90 days. Abortion restrictions get vigorously prosecuted, while gun laws are virtually ignored. Ashcroft's more committed to his own far-right agenda than he is to upholding the Constitution. Sad.
