Attorney General John Ashcroft Resigns

Yes, read it again, it's true. Attorney General John Ascroft has resigned. In his resignation letter, he claims victory in the war on terrorism and crime.

I wish John Ashcroft the best as he prepares to leave the public arena for private life.

President Bush now has the opportunity to appoint a new Attorney General who will protect not only our safety, but our Constitutional rights as well.
