OK yes this attutide of his bothers me.. but.. fine.. if Ashcroft wants to be a puritanical prude that's his privilege. And as somebody else said, surely there's another location for that podium, or a different room, where those briefings could be done.

But jeez -- come on -- $8,000? How do you spend $8,000 to do something like this? Were the drapes hand-woven silk? Were the rods used to hang them from made of the finest hammered gold/platinum alloy? etc. etc. I give up. I need to go finish my departmental budget for work. I could do a lot with an extra $8,000.

(Wait, I never saw all those extra smilies before.. tell me it's not my fault for posting those links....)
