THANK YOU GOD!!!!!

There goes one of my biggest objections to the Bush Regime. Good riddens, and may the lightning bolt from God hit you on the way out.

Drudge is the only one reporting it now, I think, so I'm a bit skeptical. Still, if this happens I won't be surprised.

Good fucking riddance. I never liked ASScroft. Hey Rudi Guilianni was a kickass prosecutor before he was Mayor of New York. Take the hint George!!!!

It would be good prep for Rudi in his upcoming battle with the QUEEN of Darkness in 2008 :D

Yay, Ashcroft gone without anyone having to resort to twelve-gauge redemption! That gets so messy, you know? Mmm...on a more serious note, anyone have any info on why he's leaving?

PRAISE!!! GLORY UNTO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!!!!

That having been said, the asshoole is finally leaving... maybe, just maybe, Bush will moderate his stances in response to not having to be re elected... it is a long shot.

Hmm. Perhaps my speculations on twelve-gauge redemption weren't inaccurate after all...

Is there a news link to this story at all? I've tuned into the networks, and it looks like they've gone to coverage of Bush's presser.

Of course it won't. We can just hope that Ashcroft's replacement is a bit more moderate. At this point, we'll take small victories.

:D Great news! I think that even Bush will be hard pressed to find a worst choice than Asscroft for replacement.

If Moore gets the appointment I guarantee there will be riots. I think the only appointes who would be more repugnat to democrats would be either Pat Robertson or Jerry Falwell.
