You’re An Irredeemable Monkey!

Okay, I couldn’t think of a relevant headline, but get this: John Ashcroft is all about prosecuting pr0n!

Thank Jah that the terrorists have been defeated, that the Enron scammers are behind bars, and that the narco-gangs are no more. Whew! Good job guys!

So I guess if the FCC boobie-blowback isn’t getting to you, maybe Ashcroft’s personal crusade might. You think the Powell v. Rumsfeld cat fight is a screechy mess? I wonder how Tommy “Abstinence” Thompson is dealing with Johnny “God Will Unleash A Terrible Rath” Ashcroft when the Attorney General is trying to take away some of the—ahem—tools that make abstinence possible.

Fire and brimstone stuff, people!

How does the political calculus add up for these people? Sure, the President has done a yeoman job of prosecuting the War. He’s certainly taken it to the enemy, even drawing the looniest of loons into our waiting arms in places like Fallujah (Syrian fighters amongst the “disaffected, but otherwise peaceful Iraqi freedom seekers?” Who could see that coming?), but in EVERYTHING ELSE the guy is a pure menace.

Or, rather, his guys.

Can Kerry do better. He’d better.

I certainly hope that some omniscient, omnipresent being can help us, because we’re in it pretty deep down here.

I think I’ll go take the dogs to a wide open, leash-free public open space now so they can hunt the Easter Bunny. Pictures to follow.

Your pal,
