#1 Methinks he ought to get a grip on himself before he tries for anything else.

#3 He is not even a good lawyer. He's a political hack. Before he starts nosing around into an area that requires rational thought, research, logic, dissernment and years of experience, he might want to apply those traits to his own work.

Can we impeach an Attorney General?

#6 I kept asking myself, "why is the Attorney General involved in national intelligence?" The article answers that: Holder, with Obama's permission, seized a role.

He has no role. He's not supposed to have a role. We're supposed to keep domestic law enforcement and foreign intelligence separate to ensure that we don't have one person grabbing too much power. Yes, yes, the two sides have to cooperate (9/11 results when they don't) but one person is not supposed to be in charge of both sides.

This is a naked power grab, pure and simple.

We have to get these guys out of power in 2012.

#7 Dr. White, Isn't this the way everything is done in Chicago? I thought that's why they called it the Chicago way.
