Ashcroft and Evans Quit

Commerce Secretary Don Evans and Attorney General John Ashcroft have resigned today. This will take away a lightning rod from the liberal elites. They loved to hate Ashcroft.

Choice quote from Ashcroft's resignation letter:

The objective of securing the safety of Americans from crime and terror has been achieved. The rule of law has been strengthened and upheld in the courts. Yet, I believe that the Department of Justice would be well served by new leadership and fresh inspiration.

Well, that was the objective after 9/11. What about his objectives before then?

Now the fights begin on fresh meat for the confirmation process.
