You can't criticize the views of any Hispanic person?

Alberto Gonzales is definitely against apprehending and returning illegal alians where they came from. He basically admitted that during an interview on the Sean hanitty Show.

He is Not Supreme Court material.

My deep and profound concern really comes from Gonzales' specific failure to join with Kelo on the New London landmark Private Property 5th Amendment TAKINGS case while WH Counsel, and his office having sided with the City ("the takers") and its allies.

If so, as I was told, this represents a grave weakness on Property Rights, both as WH COunsel, and as AG, and as a potential USSC nominee.

George W. Bush always tells the truth, I think.

I understand direct quotes, and know that anything anyone says or writes can be placed in a different context and made to sound as one wishes.
I can also say that I have listened to and read what these people have said.
My reaction is still the same.
They are untrustworthy at best and devoid of morality and ethics at least.
Their concept of the United States is distorted and skewed beyond the recognition of the Founding Fathers.

I may have misunderstood the nature of your comments. I thought you were implying that I was merely criticising Gonzales for his ehtnicity. You apparently mneant something quite different. I am truly sorry that I took your comments wrongly and hereby withdraw my Abuse filing.

Apparently we both AGREE on the policy matters (and Alberto G.'s historical writings) in making him a suboptimal choice for the Court.
Sorry again for misconsturing your remark.

Excellent links on La Raza and Gonzoles being weak on the 2nd Amendment (Right to Bear Arms).

The Right to Bear Arms is certainly related in some manner to the Right to Protect Private Property from Arbitrary Takings (5th Amendment, last sentence).

Many thanks!

Overreacting? Not happened yet? In my opinion, almost nothing is as cirically important as a lifetime USSC appointment. (Look at GHWB's deeply regrettable, for decades to come, appointment of "Stealth" Justice David Souter, if you don't get the point.)

An ounce of prevention is worth more than a ton of cure, Mom. At least my Mom says so..

Context, smontext. Read them.

Res ipsa loquitur. ("The thing speaks for itself.")

I will concede, however, that Gonzales has said many, many worthy and excellent things,

---- its just when he goes off the Strict constructionist reservation (often enough) as a Judical Activist (yes) that he becomes clearly dangerous and undesirable as a potential USSC nominee.

I MAY have misunderstood the nature of your comments. I don't think so, however.

I thought you were implying that I was merely criticising Gonzales for his ethnicity, as implied by the "Another Sipanic BAD Hispanic Thread-- Yawn" comment.

Apparently at least one other poster thinks we both AGREE on the policy matters (and Alberto G.'s historical writings) in making him a suboptimal choice for the Court.

Sorry again for misconsturing your remark, IF I did, which, upon re-re-reading I don't think I did.
