Breaking down corruptocrat AG Eric Holder’s stonewall
My column earlier this week spotlighted corruptocrat AG Eric Holder’s national security cover-up on jihadi lawyers inside the DOJ.
The Washington Times has done terrific work pounding at Holder’s stonewall.
And they continue to get results. The Times editorial board today publishes two more names of DOJ lawyers who have done work for terrorists. Names that Holder refused to give up. Names that you won’t find on any of the public disclosure websites of the most transparent administration ever. When you want transparency from Team Obama, you have to do it yourself:
Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa is rightly unhappy that the Justice Department won’t divulge the names of the nine Justice Department lawyers who directly represented suspected-terrorist detainees, or their cases. Grassley identified two himself, Neal Katyal (an aside: Katyal is a very impressive guy and very charming and level-headed) and Jennifer Daskal. Well, we’ve identified two more of them: Deputy AG counsel Eric Columbus and Office of Legal Counsel lawyer Jonathan Cedarbaum.We also reminded people of a Legal Times report that named 14 DoJ attorneys who likely would hav to recuse themsevles from specific detainee cass because of the work of their former law firms. We also remind people that back in November we reported, in an exclusive, that Associate Attorney Genreal Thomas J. Perrilli had to recuse himself at least 39 times, and we named the names of the detainees involved…
…Anyway, now we have four names identified (Katyal, Daskal, Columbus, and Cedarbaum), with at least five more to go. And again, that doesn’t include another substantial number who, like Mr. Perrilli and Mr. Holder, had law-firm-related recusals.
Here’s that contact info again. Use it. As always, sunlight is the best disinfectant:

Why don’t they just check to see which ones are on Rashad Hussain Facebook page?
What’s the over/under on when Holder is going to have to fall on his sword?
I hope it is a very dull, rusty sword.
“This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.“
We will be given the names only after the sanitization of their recent activities is complete. So much to delete, so little time.
What would you expect from an administration that appointed a Treasurer who has to recuse himself from virtually all of the important issues (AIG, Goldman Sachs, etc…) he oversees? This administration should recuse itself out of power.
Would that we had some Spartans in the House and Senate. (sigh)
Just pictured Barry as Xerxes from 300, complete with piercings. Excuse me while I clean the barf off my shoes.
You raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacists never give up do you?
Ya’ll shud be shamed o yoselves!
Wouldn’t a good investigative journalist be able to get the names?
FOIA the visitor list to GITMO, check who they were visting and who they represented, learn who their employers were and then cross-reference the DOJ lawyers to the law firms they formally worked for.
Janet Reno with all her crimes and cover-ups did not resign. I strongly suspect that neither will Mr. Holder. Both creeps will play a variation of the Diversity Card. No surprise — it works every time, particularly against Republicans.
Like I have said before… if the GOP wins enough seats take control of the House and/or Senate…there will be total grid lock in DC with the Thousands of Investigations, Calls to testify, and Indictments of the whole mess of Corruption from the Chicago Mafia… Not counting Rangle, Murtha, Dodd, and others who have been able to continue in the face of Criminal Activity.
Be hard to subpoena Murtha now, unless the constable wears asbestos underwear.
….it was in reference to the whole Tangled Corrupt web he and HIS family Profited from, with the Bushiness/Military contractors. An investigation going nowhere right now..
I can see Holder sitting in the corner, rocking back and forth. His fingers are in his ears, his eyes are shut tight, and he loudly repeats, “NA,NA,NA,NA,NA…”
The confusion is understandable – he’s probably still a registered Dem voter.
Yeah. But I bet he “votes” in the next election in Philly.
I’d like some sunlight shined on Obama’s entire past….it’s virtually all in the dark, but no one has the courage to turn on the light.
