the smoking man? (Score:2)

No way, Ashcroft is a bible thumpin', hymn singing at executions freak...even the smoking man would have the character and decency to just light up and smoke in a semi-reverent silence while they kill the intended. Ashcroft is simply the second coming of Heinrich Himmler only this time with a less sexy uniform. Now, with more singing! :) Every day there is something new to make me happy that my days in the country are numbered.

As far as I know, the Smoking Man never wrote bizarre patriotic songs and sang them at assemblies of his subordinates, and I don't believe he ever had himself anointed with cooking oil. I doubt he was interested in covering up naked statues either.

Besides, you can't very well be running things from the shadows when you're occupying offices like senator and attorney general.
