Obama, who has criticized the Arizona immigration bill (has he read it, has anybody asked "The One" if he's read it?), has tasked Holder to find stuff in it to attack the State of Arizona and its good citizens.
Holder has had some things to say about the legislation. On "Meet the Press": [The Arizona law] "has the possibility of leading to racial profiling." He has said repeatedly the law was "unfortunate". Holder thinks too that the law may be unconstitutional because local law enforcement would be enforcing Federal law. How did this knucklehead get to be AG? Local law officers enforce Federal law all the time. 'So how come you let that murderer/rapist go local officer?' 'Federal crime, I ain't touchin' it.' Federal crimes include burglary, arson, rape, robbery or kidnapping, with a lot of caveats because we're talking about lawyers and politicians creating these laws.
Texas Rep. Ted Poe asked Holder in a hearing: "It's hard for me to understand how you would have concerns about something being unconstitutional if you haven't even read the law."
Holder: "I've just expressed concerns on the basis of what I've heard about the law. But I'm not in a position to say at this point, not having read the law, not having had the chance to interact with people are doing the review, exactly what my position is."
We are living with a political system where legislators don't read bills they pass. Gentle reminder: Pelosi's famous 'we'll have to pass the [health care] bill to find out what's in it', and Holder threatening to prosecute a State regarding legislation he hasn't read, in addition to his public attacks based only on Jurassic Press reports and other lap dogs of the Dems.
