This is after contemplating a variety of legal action which of course made big headlines - i've yet to see this one in the local news

Quote:
Mr. Holder is conducting a review of the law, at President Obama's request, to see if the federal government should challenge it in court. He said he expects he will read the law by the time his staff briefs him on their conclusions.
"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," Mr. Holder told the House Judiciary Committee.
This weekend Mr. Holder told NBC's "Meet the Press" program that the Arizona law "has the possibility of leading to racial profiling." He had earlier called the law's passage "unfortunate," and questioned whether the law was unconstitutional because it tried to assume powers that may be reserved for the federal government.
Holder hasn't read Arizona law he criticized - Washington Times

regardless of your stance on this particular issue, I don't know how you can't find this offensive ...

as the AG your words should carry some additional weight .... with that comes the additional responsibility of actually being judicial with your words

i wonder if he is only going to read 1070 and not the follow up law when he finally develops his own opinion......... after all, that is what many on TV are doing

his loose lips can cause damage and as such he should at least have a clue about what he is commenting on
