A heart warming story about a man who just "loved too much". And then they pretend to be offended by this:

In the past, Ashcroft has joked: "The only thing you find in the middle of the road is moderates and dead skunks."

It seems as though Sen. Herbert Kohl, who is a self-described "moderate Democrat" from Wisconsin, found that too "offensive" to let slip by, so -- of course -- he "questioned" Ashcroft about it, prompting the nominee to apologize: "I really regret it if anyone is offended by it. … I mean no injury or disrespect to those individuals who don't have my views."
