Hallelujah!

Finally some good news in US politics. Today the attorney-general announced that he is resigning. This is fucking great news. Sure Bush gets to name a new attorney-general but he'd be hard pressed to find someone worse than Ashcroft.

For those who don't know Ashcroft's accomplishments include being heavily involved with the Patriot Act and the loss of personal freedoms that comes with that, having a dress put on the Statue of Justice because he thought it was indecent and saying things like this "Unique among the nations, America recognized the source of our character as being godly and eternal, not being civic and temporal. And because we have understood that our source is eternal, America has been different. We have no king but Jesus." (http://www.quotationspage.com/quote/32146.html) in speeches as the attorney-general (i.e. press conferences and the like) . If I remember correctly that was the same speech where Ashcroft broke into a song about the soaring eagle and how America has no king but Jesus. I, for one, will be quite glad to see him go.

This one is from Treehouse of Horror V. I'm quite shocked nobody got it.
