Attorneys in partisan conduct of their office and Ashcroft, who was a very conservative Republican was also one of the more ethical members of an administration that tended to put partisan advantage over ethics. He himself not only refused to politicize the Justice Department bud advised his subordinates to do the same. Ironically, Inglesias, also very ethical, took Ashcroft’s advice and after Ashcroft left office was fired by the administration for not using his office in the interests of the party.
