Yesterday I highlighted a bit of dishonesty about the Elian Gonzalez controversy engaged in by Obama AG pick Eric Holder.  Today comes another example, this one courtesy of Jim Geraghty:

Eric Holder, the deputy attorney general, appeared on Fox News a few hours after the raid that morning. Judge Andrew Napolitano accused the Justice Department of taking the child at gunpoint. Mr. Holder denied the charge. What he didn’t realize was that he was appearing on a split screen, the other half showing the Alan Diaz photo. “Not taken at gunpoint?” an incredulous Napolitano shot back. “Have you seen the photograph?”

Here’s the photograph Napolitano is talking about:

Discussion question: How does this play into Holder’s opinions about the private ownership of guns?
