[Always Right]

My God, I agree with someone. That was extreme. He covered legitimate art. That is censorship too far.

That's Aschrofts place of work. If he finds it offensive, as some people do, he has every right to cover it up. No one has a right to have their work displayed in a government building. Decoration and art are personal taste, and since Ashcroft is in charge, he has every right to excercize it. If someone put something up you found offensive at your business, you have no right to take it down or cover it up. What kind of twisted idea of the first amendment is that. If someone wishes to display this work of art, that is completely up to them. It is not like he destroyed it, which I would of had problems with.

Wow, I find myself on the other side now. Ashcroft is a prude if he thinks that "art" that has been in that building for over 50 years is offensive.

It's not Ashcroft's business. He is the employee. He has no right to change the appearance of the work of art installed by his employer.
