WASHINGTON - Sen. Joseph Biden, a senior Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, said Sunday he was leaning against confirmation of Alberto Gonzales, President Bush's choice to be the next attorney general.
Bush's choice of his White House counsel to be the nation's top lawman, "may very well do us more harm internationally because of its relationship with the terror memos," the senator from Delaware said on the ABC News program "This Week."
"My inclination right now is to vote against him," Biden said. He is the third ranking Democrat on the panel.
Last week, the Senate Judiciary Committee postponed a vote on Gonzales' nomination after Democrats charged he had evaded their questions about Bush administration policies on the treatment of prisoners captured during U.S. operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. He has been criticized for his role in shaping those policies.

Lol...Not the same thing? This one is a classic, even for you. You must be the King of the gun-grabbing freeperINO's.
You're preaching to the choir, brother.
I bought all the guns I wanted during the ten years the AWB was in effect.
And this is relevant because?
Yup a prime case of sufferin from delusions of relevance.
I see you have absolutely no intention of dealing honestly with the issue. Once again, you are deliberately twisting words and changing the argument - for what purpose?
The article clearly stated that Gonzales "supported extending the expired federal assault weapons ban.". You are lying when you misrepresent it by saying "assault weapons" as in small caliber automatic weapons, when you know full well that Gonzales was refering to the ban which included ugly semi-automatics rifles and shotguns, magazines capable of holding more than ten rounds, and other items included under the misnamed legislation.
I agree with you - I do not like Gonzales. Not only for his gun stand, but for his association with La Raza. I don't see anything good coming from his serving as Attorney General. And, I am a Conservative before being a Republican - the Republicans seem to have forgotten their conservative roots lately. In my opinion.
Doll-oll-oll-oll hair
it is as silly as can be
Joe's doll-oll-oll-oll hair
I laugh when he is on TV
Joe Biden had his doctor put plugs in his head
He should have superglued a critter that was dead
Now he has
doll hair
now he has
doll hair
It's a bad transplant
worse than James Traficant
Doll-oll-oll-oll hair it is as silly as can be
Joe lost his hair about the time he lost his mind
This liberal puke can kiss my rosy red behind
Now he has
doll hair
now he has
doll hair
It's a bad transplant
worse than James Traficant
Doll-oll-oll-oll hair
it is as silly as can be
Joe's doll-oll-oll-oll hair

Hey, Joe, will you put on a hat...we're laughing so hysterically
Hey, Joe, come on, put on a hat
my ribs are hurting, can't you see?
Agreed.
Some GOPers would rather those facts be hushed up, tho'.
No, I want some Private Eye to look into Joe Biden, Ted Kennedy, Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Chuck Schummer, Hillary, etc. and find out which fraternaties/soritities they belonged to and if there were any racial blackballing of members while they were there. I want someone to look into the golf clubs these folks and their spouses belong to and list what their racial policies were. I want someone to looking into the property that these folks own and see if there were any clauses in the titles that prohibited the sale to people of color. I want someone to dig for dirt and then repay these Dem's for all that their political party has done in the past when race was not involved, but they made it seem that way.
I don't know about you non-gun owners, but if someone supports the AWB, they oppose gun ownership.
is that because gonzales did not plagarize in college?
The old plagerist is trying to turn the Gonzales nomination into a bargining chip. He will eventually agree to support him in exchange for some yet to be named quid pro quo. I hope his hair plugs get infected!
Yeh, comb over his mouth..
Yeh, comb over his mouth..
Biden's vote is irrelevant. He is in the M-I-N-O-R-I-T-Y!
