John Ashcroft: a Christian, a citizen
----------
by Robert A. Sirico
Catholic libertarian Father Robert A. Sirico defends John Ashcroft. "We are a nation that holds firm to the conviction that a
person's religious commitments, or lack thereof, need not bar
him or her from public life. The Ashcroft nomination provides an
opportunity to reaffirm the best of this old liberal virtue of
tolerance." NYT site requires registration. (01/17/01)

The Executive Order, once a constitutional tool for carrying out the legitimate (i.e. - constitutional) powers of the presidency, has become - at least since Lincoln, and especially since FDR - the tool of the tyrant.
