But, the thing is, nobody else ever seemed to have a problem with it, even people more prudish than Ashcroft. And the DOJ is not Ashcroft's "personal space," even though he might see it that way. > I support > it, as we are not talking about PBS art programs, where the context is > clear.

Again, this was never a problem before now, not even for Ed Meese ... and the statue has been there since the 1930s. > Do you really believe that the Department of > Justice is where you want to appreciate the joy of the human body? > Ylgghhh... > Outright pornography is exactly what I said it was.

"Violent and vulgar exploitation of the human body?" You really need to get a clue, Bates, or at least take a look at the statue for yourself. Do you find Michaelangelo's David to be offensive? "Denial of women's rights ..." What crap.
