Obama Pushing Another Radical Anti-gunner to the Federal Bench

“Liu believes that judges have the authority to impose their views… using clever verbal camouflage to disguise what they're doing.” — Ed Whelan, a one-time clerk to Justice Antonin Scalia and now president of the Ethics and Public Policy Center (3/4/10)
