Obama’s attorney general pick wants to throw the book at convicted Hillary Clinton bundler

As she faces confirmation battle, U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch’s hard line could help with Republicans

The U.S. attorney nominated by President Barack Obama to be his next attorney general is asking a federal judge to impose a stiff prison term of up to four and a half years on a former Hillary Clinton fundraiser convicted of making more than $180,000 in illegal campaign contributions.

The request by Loretta Lynch, the U.S. attorney in Brooklyn, to reject leniency for wealthy hotelier Sant Singh Chatwal and have him sent to federal prison is the latest example of the tough stance Justice Department prosecutors are taking with those convicted of making so-called conduit contributions — campaign cash that is falsely reported as being made in the name of others.

Hmmm, the author, Michael Isikoff, is a big lib.

Something else going on here...

But the court filing by Lynch’s office this week also comes at a time when she is facing a potentially tough grilling from Republican lawmakers on her nomination to succeed Attorney General Eric Holder.

Cozying up to the 'pubs, huh?

No confirmations this lame duck session, she's worse than Holder!

Uber-Lefties sending a message to potential Hillary supporters.

No one to the right of Mao will be acceptable to them for 2016.

This is a piece of red meat. Confirm this leftist out of revenge, out of a desire to “go after” a low level nothing, and end up with her for two years of fervent Constitutional destruction as the other part of the bargain.

No thanks. We are really dealing with Machiavellian, demonic forces with this regime.

That is why Hillary had a ‘sit down’ with Obama recently! Hillary: “Look you goofy ass lookin’ muslim, call off your dogs on this or every video I have of YOU and Reggie rumpin’ away is gonna be sent to Limbaugh and FOX News!!!” Barry: “Oh yeah? same deal as we had in 2008 Cankles.....you pull that crap and every video I have of YOU and Huma carpet munchin’ to beat the band is going out to Limbaugh and FOX News!”

Despite the Clintons going to bat for him in 2012, Zero would rather die [OK, maybe rather forego the back nine at Andrews AFB] than turn the ship over to Hillary. War is brewing between Barry’s people and Slick Willie’s. Yahoo.

Holder needs to start his War On Sneaky Crooks!, by throwing that same 20 volume book at himself. Or, ask for a patriotic american volunteer to throw it for him.

If the Dems are going after Hitlery, who are they grooming for 2016?

I suspect somebody much worse than Obama, if that person is even
possible to find. Maybe they'll lower the bar from Stupid to retarded.
America's first retarded President is coming. They've already over-done Black.

When she is willing to start working on Benganzi and Lois Learner we might be willing to sit down and talk.
