Given his intellegence and reputation for competence, it is very
diificult to believe Eric Holder's contention that he thought
Marc Rich was just another tax crook and that he had no idea that
he was also an arms dealer. Also, his contention that Bill
Clinton's pardons of FALN terrorists were "reasonable"
because they served time, hadn't harmed anybody (tell that to
Joseph Connor), and the pardons were supported by an
impressive list of
luminaries, is disturbing. The pattern here seems to be one
of deference to authority, and it's questionable whether Holder
would be willing to stand up to Obama if necessary. During the
Bush administration, Democrats made a fuss about the lack of
independence of the AG's office, but they seem to abandoning that
now tha the administration is Democratic.

"During the Bush administration, Democrats made a fuss about the lack of independence of the AG's office, but they seem to abandoning that now tha the administration is Democratic."
Get used to saying that about a whole lot of things over the next few years.

Bush could have made Clinton very uncomfortable over the Clinton pardons , but he elected to not, is that a class act for a president or not,Hillary may not be where she is today if he had.
