BREAKING: DOJ Confirms Holder Personally "Vetted" Rosen Warrant
Town Hall ^ | 5/24/13 | Guy Benson

Posted on 05/24/2013 2:51:41 PM PDT by Nachum

A damaging Friday news dump before a holiday weekend? Who could have seen that coming? Dump away, Justice Department:

The Justice Department said on Friday that officials up to Attorney General Eric Holder vetted a decision to search an email account belonging to a Fox News reporter whose report on North Korea prompted a leak investigation. In a statement emailed to Reuters, the department said the search warrant for the reporter's email account followed all laws and policies and won the independent approval of a federal magistrate judge.

We're apparently supposed to feel better about everything because the DOJ "followed all laws and policies" and secured their warrant from a judge. That would be the same warrant that designated journalist James Rosen as a potential "criminal co-conspirator" in order to keep it secret. Details about the breadth of the investigation continue to emerge. Via The New Yorker's Ryan Lizza, another eye-opening scoop:

The first judge DOJ went to denied the search of Rosen’s g-mails. DOJ then went to another judge and overrode the first judges decision.

It's good that H0lder was so concerned about leaks involving NK carrying out nuke-u-ler tests if we pressured them.

Kinda like someone leaking that 0bomber is a lying POS.

What an utterly despicable and corrupt POS this Holder is. Think about it: Black Panther voter intimidation he dropped; Fast and Furious he orchestrated; Fox News search warrant he approved (and no doubt ordered).

Holder has to go. If he does not resign immediately he needs to be frog-marched to justice (and I don’t mean the Justice Department).

How's that for "In your face!" politics? Eh, conservatives? No one will do anything about it.

Perjury by Holder needs to be prosecuted right away.

Even the commies at the Huffington Puffington Post are calling for Holder’s ouster.

“this racist man should have been removed after the black panthers”

Holder is the worst partisan hack ever to be AG. He has killed the concept that the AG is the AG of all the people not just the president who nominates him nor the party he comes from. Once again, Obama and his minions have completely reversed their campaign promises in the raw pursuit of POWER.
