Frat boy wannabe Ashcroft spent his summer surfing the internet for porn. "Research" for his redirection of FBI efforts away from terrorist investigations that may have upset Bush's Bin Laden partners.

Preoccupied with his own domestic agenda, the attorney general had no time for international terrorism—although Justice must have thought something was up because Ashcroft began traveling by private jet.

Anyhow, Attorney General John Ashcroft and his Justice Department staff may have had their minds elsewhere. That summer, the AG was involved in Operation Avalanche, a scheme to crack down on child pornography. His people were trying to settle the Clinton-era tobacco suits. In May, Ashcroft caused a furor by sending a letter to the National Rifle Association backing an individual's right to own guns. He stirred up more controversy when he found there was no intentional racial or ethical bias in federal death penalty cases.
