| #3 mr. Ashcroftwill be a member of the board of directors, not an executive officer, according to the article. Boards generally meet between one and four times per year to hear reports from the senior executive officers, approve general philosophy, and have a nice dinner. It's a good idea to have a lawyer, an accountant, and a couple of CEOs from other companies on the board...the kind of people who'll recognize trouble creeping in on little feet. |

| #1 Seeing how he was in charge of surpressing dissent and rounding up all opposition to BushCo and putting them in the detention camps, AshKKKroft should be good at this. Oh, wait... |
