No one asked Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales at his recent confirmation hearings about his intentions with regard to "Lady Justice," the 12-foot semi-nude statue at the Justice Department that former attorney general John D. Ashcroft had covered with a large blue drape.Thank heavens that the Depression-era semi-nude bronze body won't be able to corrupt America.
But Loop fans predicted overwhelmingly that Gonzales would keep "Minnie Lou," as she's called, behind the big blue burka. Appears they were right. A senior department official told us recently she'll stay covered. "I've not even heard any discussion about" dropping the drape, he said.
Now, if Tortureboy could just intern SpongeBob Squarepants at Guantanamo, we'd be secure.
