The ACLU has issued a Press Release and Report on what the Senate should ask Albert Gonzales about his Civil Liberties record during his up-coming hearings for appointment to the position of US Attorney General.
By policy, the ACLU does not take a position either for or against a candidate for appointment. The press release is an excellent summary of the questions they want asked.
The New York Times today has a good article on his nomination proceedings. To quote:
Even some of Mr. Gonzales's detractors say they do not expect to prevent him from becoming the nation's 80th attorney general, as well as the first Hispanic holder of the office.
Instead, they say, they hope to lay down a record that will make it difficult for him to be confirmed to the Supreme Court.
