There are lawyers who specialize in defending organized crime figures. That's fine; mafia dons have a right to legal representation. But should the attorney general hire a bunch of those lawyers to staff the department's organized crime section? And if he does, shouldn't we know about it?

It would be interesting to know if the lawyers represented these terrorists pro bono.

What a great point...how can Holder even retain his job with this type of conflict? It is amazing that a true revolt hasn’t happened yet.

Some of the department's critics see things this way: There are lawyers who specialize in defending organized crime figures. That's fine; mafia dons have a right to legal representation. But should the attorney general hire a bunch of those lawyers to staff the department's organized crime section? And if he does, shouldn't we know about it?

Damn straight we have a right to know.

Are there any FReepers out there that are naive enough to still think KSM will be found guilty?

Thank you Byron York.

I vote that from now on, we refer to Eric Holder as Stonewall Holder.

Great. Our top law enforcement official is one of the most criminal POS’s on the face of the earth right now.
