Why You Should Care Deeply about James Cole’s Nomination to Deputy Attorney General

Dear 9/11 Families and Friends:

President Obama has nominated James Cole to be the Deputy Attorney General (DAG) at the the Department of Justice. This is a critically important position. While Attorney General Eric Holder is the nominal head of the Justice Department, it is the deputy attorney general who actually runs the day-to-day operations of the entire department. For instance, it was Mr. Holder who, as DAG during the Clinton administration, orchestrated the Sept. 1999 clemencies of 16 terrorists belonging to the FALN, a Puerto Rican separatist group that carried out 146 bombings which killed 9 people and maimed NYPD bomb squad officers. Mr. Holder also facilitated and pushed through the pardon of fugitive Marc Rich, who made billions of dollars engaging in illegal oil trades on behalf of Iranian ayatollahs. Today, the DAG has a pivotal role in formulating and executing decisions dealing with the policy issues surrounding the capture, detention, interrogation and prosecution of suspected Islamic terrorists.

Wake up folks, another mole to whack! This administration is just dismantling the national security infrastructure pput in place post-911 bit by bit. We cannot let them turn it back. This is insane. And, this is Obama.

Debra Burlingame has never given up. And neither should we. Thanks for posting this.

Another Marxist. Wow.
It would seem to me that when the American people elected a Marxist President this would follow.
It has been 50 years since conservatives would openly address the issue of what the left really was after. Watch Republican Senators and Congressmen pussyfoot around the issue.
