Take a look at Ashcroft's statements before joining the Bush
administration. He was rabidly biased towards state's rights. Since joining the Bush administration, he's taken a very federalist view. I've no idea what prompted this change. Is he burying his own opinions in favor of those of his boss (not unreasonable)? Did something actually change his mind? Bush himself was against nation-building and strongly in favor of free trade. You make your statement as if Ashcroft's and Bush's philosophical changes occurred in a vacuum. Both men have been influenced by 9/11, and the resulting war. It's hard to worry too much about state's rights and to be against nation building when you're leading a country at war. State's Rights and free trade are subjugated during wartime -- and always have been. Don't worry -- they'll be back again, after this one is over. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
