<"It seems to me that a lot of great Americans have died over the last 200+ years to keep Church and State separate, and it doesn't surprise me that Ashcroft doesn't think that should apply to him or his religion."

Where is this happening?



It isn't. Ashcroft hasn't done one single thing to threaten the First Amendment. This is just the Big Lie "Boogeyman" technique, one of the Democratic standards.

The nearly-hysterical reaction of the Left to anyone in politics who may actually be religious is way out of proportion to any serious concerns one might have about someone imposing their religious views on the American citizen. It certainly goes far beyond simple disagreement with someone's political positions.
