Arizona's top law enforcement official has acknowledged that Attorney General Eric Holder has a duty to challenge the state's new immigration law if he thinks it's unconstitutional.
Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard was grilled by a Democratic congressman during a House hearing Thursday about criticism of the Obama administration's challenge of Arizona's new immigration law.
Congressman Al Green of Texas asked Goddard whether Holder is duty-bound to uphold the Constitution and to challenge the law if the thinks it's unconstitutional.
Goddard responded, "If that's his sincere belief, he has no choice."

One more nail in the coffin of Terry Goddard's bid to become governor.
He won't. Brewer will win it in a landslide.

So, Holder is duty-bound to challenge a law that he considers unconstitutional? Wow! I am so glad to hear that! I have been pointing out various unconstitutional federal spending, like money given to states, foreign entities, private American interests, and anything else beyond the constitutional functions of the federal government. But, Holder hasn't challenged any of that. Hmm.......confusing.
