Andy Griffith or John Ashcroft: Best Law Enforcement Officer?
There could be reasons to vote for either. There are strong and weak points for each. When you look at the two, and their public records,

Why would you vote for one or the other?

1. I am not starting a copycat thread...but....
Keystone Kops or the Ashcroft DoJ: Best Law Enforcement Agency?

I vote for the Kops. They could have found more than two dozen hookers in New Orleans.

Andy is the Sherriff, Ashcroft is Barney Fyfe

4. I disagree
True, Andy was the sherriff, but even Barney was a better law enforcement officer than Ashcroft.

5. How unfair of you! At least Barney Fyfe always was able to realize
when he had gone down the wrong path.

6. Hey, I offended that you besmirch a fine officer like Barney by comparing
him to a lying clown joke of a idiot like Asscroft.

7. By the way, what are the "strong points" for Ashcroft?
Not jumping on you, I'm just wondering what you had in mind.

and lied! He has no strong points!

12. Ashcroft is in law enforcement?
I thought he was the grand imperial wizard of morality, decency, appropriate behavior, saintly conduct, crisco customs, dogmas (and calico cats), ethics, habits, ideals, integrity, manners, mores, policies, scruples, high standards and dumbshits. But law enforcement?
