Another One Bites the Dust
Why does it always hurt so much to say goodbye to the ones we love?
In a touching farewell speech this afternoon (Ahem…), John Ashcroft thanked America for four long, glorious years of service as Attorney General. Oh, and glorious they were, John! No, really... thank YOU.
In the speech, he affectionately referred to several helpful staff members as “Huey, Dewey, and Louie.”
He also made special reference to the position he held, one of the highest political appointments in the U.S., as (using finger quotations in the air) “the Office of the Attorney General.” Huh? Is it not normally called that? Or was he openly telling reporters (wink wink) that while that’s how WE all refer to the office, it’s really known internally as something else? Hmm…
No word on when his next album will be released, but foreshadowing was evidenced by the two flags with large eagle motifs in the background.
“Let the Eagle Soar”
Anyone, anyone?
And, yes, one more man is down. Let’s also not forget that yet another Department of Homeland Security official found the kitchen just a little too hot to handle.
