The Attorney General is a crook

Friday, January 16th, 2004

John Ashcroft ran for the U.S. Senate in 2000, and lost. (to a dead man). Before his defeat he was given a mailing list worth &/036;1.7 million by the Spirit of America political action committee. Turns out he failed to comply with federal election law by concealing the gift from the PAC. The National Voting Rights Institute and Public Citizen have called for a investigation by a special prosecutor.
