Mukasey for AG?

President Bush plans to choose Michael B. Mukasey, a former federal judge who was nominated to the bench by Ronald Reagan, to replace Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, Republicans close to the process told The Politico.
How does this bode for gun owners? At this point, I don't have anything but inferences--look for more to come to light in the coming days.

First, we know the guy is for Giuliani. A Constitutionalist who believes in the Bill of Rights could not be.

More troubling is this guy who wanted him on the Supreme Court and/or as AG:
In June 2003, Democratic New York Senator Charles Schumer submitted Mukasey's name, along with four other Republicans or Republican appointees, as a suggestion for President George W. Bush to consider for nomination to the Supreme Court. On the March 18, 2007, episode of Meet the Press, Schumer again suggested Mukasey as a potential Attorney General nominee who, "by [his] reputation and character, shows that [he] put rule of law first."
I haven't had time to look into the record of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York as it pertains to guns, or what Judge Mukasey's history is--I'm hoping someone on our side with legal expertise will weigh in and give us all some insights.

  1. As an inference, I think the fact that Schumer is for him leaves me confident that he is our enemy.

  2. If he is for Giuliani and Shumer is for him you know he does not give a good Goddamn about the Constitution or liberty.

    Decent men cannot live in that slime pit. Only anaerobic, infective, parasites and deadly organism that emit toxins to the body politic thrive there awaiting their chance to invade a healthy society and destroy it through pustulating sores on it's vital organs.
