I'm all for protesting the vile Ashcroft -- indeed, the guy should be impeached -- but this "concern" for Constitutional rights coming from a Leninist is a bit rich. I mean, how does one who reveres the now-stuffed autocrat reconcile her beliefs with the bourgeois Constitution and Bill of Rights (written by, lest we forget, white male slave owners)? Or is it only a rightwing police state that you oppose?
