Despite the partisan beginning, the ranking Republican on the Judiciary Committee, Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, said Holder made mistakes but was well-qualified for the job and should be confirmed.

Holder said he would reexamine a ruling by former Attorney General Michael Mukasey that immigrants facing deportation do not have a right to government-provided lawyers.

Here we go again... *sigh*

"Eric Holder has taken a constricted view of Second Amendment rights. Millions of law-abiding Americans exercise the right to keep and bear arms. Mr. Holder's opinion is that the people have no such right unless they are commanded to exercise it in a formal militia, which renders the right meaningless. He has advocated requiring that all firearm owners be registered with the government and that failure to comply be punished as a felony with substantial imprisonment. The restrictions he favors threaten traditional civil liberties."
-Stephen P Halbrook

And from the NRA website...
"Holder's history of antagonism to gun rights includes support for the imposition of a waiting period on handgun sales even after the instant check system became available. He also supported one-gun-a-month handgun rationing, and gun show regulations that would have given the federal government the power to shut down gun shows across the country.

Holder's record is clear: he opposes individual ownership of guns, and said the appeals court decision leading up to the Heller case that struck down the D.C. gun ban "opens the door to more people having more access to guns," as if that fact alone was bad..."

I guess the thinking is - First take their guns, then take their religion. Then they will have no hope at all.
