So, has anyone on either Congressional judiciary committees thought to ask former Attorney General John Ashcroft for the details of his relationship with convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff? And, furthmore, who are the members of Ashcroft's unnamed posse?
Think about the significance as well. We're talking about a football game on Sunday, September 30th, 2001, a mere 19 days after the US suffered it's worst terrorist attack ever. And the top law enforcement official in the US was spending it with a lobbyist?
