Sneed is told that Attorney General Eric Fast and Furious Holders days are numbered.
Sneed hears President Barack Obama, who is this/close to Holder, has set his sights on Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick as a possible replacement when the heat dies down on the latest hot-button scandals to hit the U.S. Justice Department, said a top White House source.
Last year, Holder became a hot button over a congressional probe of the sale of government guns to drug cartels.
This time its the double whammy of an IRS scandal and the U.S. Justice Departments seizure of Associated Press reporters phone records which has caused a media uproar.
The president will wait until the heat dies down and a little time has passed beyond that before he does anything to Holder because Holder is a close pal, and thats a big deal in the White House, said a top Dem source. Holder is also a close buddy of Obamas senior adviser Valerie Jarrett, the source said. Obama knows a change has to be made, but he wants Holder to leave with his reputation intact.
◆ Cool under fire: Patrick, who hails from Chicago and will not run again for governor next year, got high marks for the way he handled the Boston Marathon bombing and its aftermath.
◆ Translation: The president will chose either Patrick, who has been a great governor, or Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano, although Patrick is in the lead, the source added. Obama would have to replace Napolitano, but Patrick would be available.
What? Hank Jonson not considered?
Confirmation hearings would be great. Assuming that the GOP would use them to grill Patrick on the Black Panthers case and other violations of the 14th Amendment by the Civil Rights Division.
Not sure if Obama (or more correctly Obamas handlers) are dumb enough to give the GOP that kind of opportunity and platform.
Coup d’val....wow. Not much difference between and him and Holdup so don’t expect many changes.
Who backfills in Mass??
Yeah, that will do nicely in this most transparent administration in our country's history.
Hysterical!
Whites Need Not Apply
= = = = = = = = = = = =
HEE HEE!
If “WE” ever get a White, Male, Straight, Christian, NON PC President I am sure when he picks an ALL WHITE cabinet etc, not caring who is eligible or available etc, he can just say “Well, Whites have been under represented these last few years, actually long before BO, so I am just trying to ‘even’ the playing field”.
Nothing will be said or noted by ANYONE. /sarc/
Funny how when Nixon ‘fired’ Archibold Cox, a bumper sticker popped up “IMPEACH THE COX SACKER” which, by early 1970’s ‘standards’ was risque - to say the least, and did garner a lot of ‘snickers’.
Patrick fundraises in a radical mosque in Roxbury
“Several of its leaders past and present do have ties
to terrorism...”
Civic leaders like Menino and Patrick supported the mosque
project
“to celebrate the opening of the Islamic Center”—Gov Patrick
—MUSLIM ACTION WITH GOVERNOR PATRICK
RECOGNITION OF OUR PRESENCE, OUR PAIN, AND OUR POWER
(5:50 into the video)
‘The governor agreed to these radical demands and accepted
the money’
What? No crooked white lawyers?
Only when you run out of crooked black lawyers to give a cushy job to.
I am sure the tax payers will be glad when Billy does not come down for breakfast.
>>The same POS that said on local radio ....we have the freedom of speech. I wish we didn’t, but we do.
Yes I remember that!
For years Patrick was a regular guest on Jim & Margery on
WTKK 96.9. When Greater Media changed the station’s format to
rap, Jim & Margery fled to publicly funded NPR affiliate
WGBH 89.7 where they now do a noon show—and yes Ask The
Governor is now there...
From the WGBH site:
Boston Public Radio
12:00PM - 2:00PM

Yesterday’s topic:
Roxbury Imam Reflects On Muslim Life in Boston
After the Boston bombings Imam William Suhaib Webb grieved with the rest of the city. Webb is Imam at the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center in Roxbury. The past month has been particularly trying for his community, and for Boston Muslims in general.
The worst day of my life was on Fox News, Webb said. There was a guy who said I was an Al-Qaeda operative, a Muslim Brotherhood sympathizer. My mother in Oklahoma was watching and so she calls me. You never want your mother to see that about you.

Straight Whites Need Not Apply.
With our luck both Billy and “Jimmy” will live past the century mark, but who knows.
Hope you are right. Other reports that he is about to appoint Susan Rice to national security advisor!! Can you imagine? That is ‘in your face’ thuggery.
IMO
I believe Holder was talking about leaving before the last election. He knows he’s just a blocker for Team Obama. The real question is “Who is the owner of Team Obama?” Does anyone, anyone think that the American taxpayers own Team Obama?
Obama: “Wanted, one crooked black bro’ to cover my back.”
Deval Patrick: “Dat’s me, bro’. I da Man.”
*The dullard-in-chiefs is such a constitutional scholar that he believes this would make Justice blind again.*
I am of the believe Dear Leader will require the next DOJ to be acutely aware of skin color. Blind justice doesn’t really fit his regime.
