anti-porn advocate in justice department
Have fun and remember to reelect him.
Quote:
Washington -- The Justice Department quietly has installed an outspoken anti- pornography advocate in a senior position in its criminal division, as part of an effort to jump-start obscenity prosecutions.
The Bush administration's election-year move follows three years of heat from the Christian right, which believes that Attorney General JohnAss, a longtime friend and ally, has fallen down on the job when it comes to fighting smut.
Now, the appointment of a tough new cop on the porn beat and other recent moves by the department to bolster obscenity cases are galvanizing conservatives, while leaving representatives of the adult-entertainment industry to wonder whether they have become a political football.
