Ashcroft - 0 for 5000

Remember back right after 9/11 when Attorney General Ashcroft was touting all the suspected terrorists they were arresting in the Justice Department sweeps? Do you remember how many convictions there were out of all of those arressts ( 5000 of them ). Here's a hint more than zero less than two. That's right 5000 suspected terrorists arrested 1 conviction. But wait! There's more! on Sept. 2nd of this year the courts overturned that conviction. So now there are no convictions. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. None. Our Attorney General has gone 0 for 5000 at catching terrorists. Whee! Ain't the war on terror fun. Don't you feel so secure when we can arrest 5000 people and not one of them is a terrorist? Does Ashcroft and or the Justice Department have any idea what they are or should be doing? If you need me I'll be hiding under my bed.
