"Court Rebuffs Ashcroft... ...saying officials misused the law and misled the court dozens of times." -- Washington Post, August 23, 2002.

Rush points out that the heart of the criticism is 75 applications for search warrants and wire-taps. Although the 75 applications were requested back in mid-2000 while Janet Reno was Attorney General, and Ashcroft was busy running for re-election to the Senate, you'd never know it to read the article. Reno's name is never even mentioned.
