Well, Senator Lisa Murkowski (RINO-Alaska) voted for Eric Holder to become the U.S.Attorney General. Remember Holder from the Clinton administration? He ushered through pardons for 16 Puerto Rican terrorists in the last days of the Clinton administration. To refresh your memory the following excerpt from the Los Anglos Times:

"The 16 members of the FALN (the Spanish acronym for Armed Forces of National Liberation) and Los Macheteros had been convicted in Chicago and Hartford variously of bank robbery, possession of explosives and participating in a seditious conspiracy. Overall, the two groups had been linked by the FBI to more than 130 bombings, several armed robberies, six slayings and hundreds of injuries."

In addition, Holder is a staunch anti-gun guy and has in the past advocated for several anti-gun legislation that would effect gun owners in Alaska and the country. Even in his confirmation hearing, he keeps the door open to future anti-gun efforts.

Remember these factoids when Senator Murkowski comes to town and campaigns. She Supports those who pardon terrorist and who supports anti-gun issues.
