If you want to see the true face of the Obama administration, you need look no further than the president’s embattled attorney general, Eric Holder.

By turns whiny, shifty, obfuscatory, petulant, insulting and arrogant, Holder has become a fixture before congressional investigating committees, fending off one Obama scandal after another, while proclaiming that he — the nation’s top cop — doesn’t know anything about anything and highly resents any implication that he does.

Indeed, all the Obama scandals — the murderous gunrunning scheme called Fast and Furious, the secret monitoring of the Associated Press and Fox News reporter James Rosen (personally approved by Holder), even the Internal Revenue Service’s targeting of conservative and Tea Party groups for special scrutiny — find their nexus at the top of the Justice Department.
------
The reason is simple: Holder is the id to the president’s massive ego, busily helping to bring about the president’s wish for the “fundamental transformation” of America from his post at Justice. Along with super-ego Valerie Jarrett, Obama’s chief consigliere and all-around Madame Defarge, he’s likely to be among the last to go.

We have a corrupt justice department head and a corrupt president. Where do we go from here? Does Congress have no power to stop Holder?

"...whiny, shifty, obfuscatory, petulant, insulting and arrogant..."

What a perfect description of holder.

Yes, it is simple, but the author still missed it: Neither Holder nor Obama is swift enough to orchestrate the “fundamental transformation” we're witnessing, especially Obama.

Then who is wrecking the country? Holder was chosen for a specific reason by Obama and the answer is very clear.
Both of them are practically above the law in their positions that protect one another, regardless of what happens.

He's black,and federal law says that means that he can't be fired. Lawyer Algonquin J. Calhoun from the old Amos and Andy radio and tv show has come to life,and is now our Attorney General.

As far as that goes,Barry Obummer is a perfect real-life replacement for George "Kingfish" Stevens,their lodge leader.

SUMBODY PLEASE cue the theme music from "The Twilight Zone"!

BTW,all tv episodes of Amos and Andy are now available on DVD.

When the history books are written about the multitudes of failures of the Zero-bama years, at least one chapter should be devoted to "what could have been."

Consider - a mere 40 or so years from the race riots of the 60s - and the King assassination - this country elected a black man as POTUS (well, half-black, anyway). The possibility to finally put this racial BS behind us was finally at hand.

That's what could have been. But what was? Well, the sheer incompetence of Zero and his racial thug side-kick Holder has - rather than advance them - set race relations in this country back to pre-1960s levels, if not further.

And the really sad part is - I believe it has been intentional on their part.
