John Ashcroft is a putz.

From the NYT's:

A federal judge threw out the terrorism convictions of two Arab immigrants on
Thursday, undoing what the Justice Department once proclaimed was its first
major courtroom victory in the war on terror

And:

"The case fits into a broader pattern of the Ashcroft Justice Department
overplaying its hand in terror cases and making broad allegations of terror
without the evidence to back it up," said David Cole, a law professor at
Georgetown University.

You know what...it's not that he's a putz that upsets me, it's that he's a fucking fascist that bothers me.
