Yep, they both criticize it but haven’t read it. Just like most in Congress when they pass laws.

That's because he is criticizing what he perceives to be the intent behind the law - the cutting off of a critical supply of future Democrat voters.

Well, Mr. Holder is in deep $hit, because the law is just a state version of fed law. He won’t do anything, because he can’t.

Wasn’t that an amazing statement. An Attorney, the HEAD of the Justice Department. What an utter jerk.

Holder’s taking a page out of his boss Odumbo’s book: accusing Arizona of “acting stupidly” while admitting he knows absolutely nothing about it.
