Ashcroft Plans Tour to Tout Patriot Act

WASHINGTON -- Attorney General John Ashcroft will embark on a multi-city tour later this month to talk about the war on terrorism and the benefits of the USA Patriot Act, officials said Monday.

Ashcroft plans to kick off the tour Aug. 19 in Washington and visit more than a dozen cities. The exact itinerary was still being completed and will be released later.

5. Four fucking paragraphs. Not one fucking city named. Surprised?
What a fucking joke. Another railroad job. This whitewash tour will be over and done with before we read another fucking paragraph about it. It will not play anywhere close to where it might attract protesters. It will be top secret. It will be played behind country club doors in the fortresses of GOP-dom. Mark my word. Verb Sap!.

Surely, under the Patriot Act, everyone has to be at home in bed reading the Bible by 8pm each night? Let's hope he keeps his speeches to the day time.......but then of course....
