Holder will soon break that promise. Here in CA the State Senate passed eight (8) new anti-gun laws, including one that requires ammo registry and an ammo permit to buy ammunition. Once the 2nd Amendment is no longer protected, the 1st Amendment will follow.

“Yesterday, Attorney General Eric Holder pledged to protect the first amendment rights of the media at a closed door, off-the-record meeting. “
1. It wasn’t the “media”. It was only a few of them.
2. Why is this news (an AG saying he would follow the Bill of Rights)?
3. Why does an AG even feel compelled to state the obvious - that an AG must follow the Bill of Rights?
4. Does this mean he will follow the 1st Amendment from now on and acknowledges that he didn’t follow it before?
5. why is this being provided via off-the-record session? is the message here that he can’t say something this “extreme” in an on-the-record session?
Impeach this evil SOB

Amen. Hope he hates breaking rocks.

Lie-beral Argument: The founders didn’t know about Twitter, Facebook, Websites, Radio and Television.....
Because they think they can ban an AR-15 because the founders never knew of them, just you wait, the morons in the Main Stream Media press will cut their own throat by claiming the same stuipid logic applies to their own trade.....

But talking down to muslims is criminal.
What amendment was that again???
Well if the Liberals will let us have “Musketts” Can we use a old timey press to print out anti Mooselimb pamphlets and there would be nothing they could do about it.....

Holder has always been a vigorous defender of his right to free speech. I’m not certain why the Little People feel it applies to us too.

How do we know that's even what he said since the meeting was a 'closed door, off the record' affair? How do we know what disclaimers and caveats were running around in his head behind his beady eyes? It's like not one thin dime but hundreds, if not thousands. Bastich.
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise. Thanks.

Of course he will. Unfortunately he thinks the 1st ammendment only protects speech he agrees with.

If you have to assure the media you’re going to do your job...
To: tennmountainman
Lets see. He has an off the record meeting with media sycophants to tell them he believes in Freedom of speech? Yes, and he gave the journalists permission to say he believes in a free press. That's how they were able to report that part - he gave them 'permission'...

The vile, contemptible, nothing is lower Dick Durbin says the rest of us non media slobs don’t have First Amendment Rights. Will Holder denounce him?

Holder will protect the First Amendment rights of the media, but he won't do that for any other non-minority American. I'm sure that is what he is really saying here. This admin is all nudges and winks.
