Rove and Ashcroft, sitting in a tree...

Short post, since it's late and some of us have to work for a living.

However, after seeing this post by Billmon, I had to pick up the challenge. It was tough tracking down the connection, but lo and behold, that left wing rag comes through again:

Ashcroft was not an accidental choice for attorney general. Before Sept. 11, his conservative credentials on judicial nominees, enforcing federal pornography laws and protecting gun owners' rights were good. Karl Rove, Bush's trusted political adviser, had handled Ashcroft's political campaigns and Majority Leader of the Senate Trent Lott, R-Miss., favored his nomination.

And Tom DeLay wants us to believe that there's no conflict of interest here. Riiight. This is why Janet Reno investigated Monica Lewinsky, after all. No, wait...
