Opinions on Ashcroft?

I never said that I played soccer with his son. Out of curiosity, where did you get that idea? :confused:

For those that are interested in some of his decisions, check this site out. This gives his general record: [url]http://www.opposeashcroft.com/facts/all.phtml[/url].

Here is one on his civil rights record: [url]http://www.opposeashcroft.com/facts/civil.phtml[/url]

And here is his 1st ammendment and religious record: [url]http://www.opposeashcroft.com/facts/first.phtml[/url]

I know this is a leftist site, but it does state the facts.

I'm still not sure about the guy. I watched some footage of his hearing and he seemed like he would do a good job, even saying he would look at the law (my main point). But I ask this: If he is so strong in his religious beliefs, how can he just throw them aside and say he'll support such things as [i]Roe v. Wade[/i]? Either he's full of it, or his convictions aren't that strong.
