Attorney General John Ashcroft was speaking at an elementary school about rights and freedoms in America. Any questions, he asked. A little boy raised his hand. My name is Billy, and I have two questions. First, why are you using the Patriot Act to limit Americans civil liberties? Second, why havent any weapons of mass destruction been found in Iraq? Just then the bell rang, and Ashcroft stated, Well resume after recess.

Recess ended and Ashcroft again asked, Are there any questions? A little girl raised her hand. My name is Julie, and I have four questions. First, why are you using the Patriot Act to limit Americans civil liberties? Second, why havent any weapons of mass destruction been found in Iraq? Third, why did the recess bell ring ten minutes early? Fourth, wheres Billy?
