Eric Holder To Be Obama’s Attorney General?

Posted by: Flap in Barack Obama, Eric Holder

Former Deputy Attorney General Eric Holder and Pardon Attorney Roger Adams testify on the pardon that former President Clinton gave to Marc Rich during a Senate Judiciary Hearing February 14, 2001 in Washington DC

Another Bill Clinton administration retread for Barack Obama?

Apparently so.

Washington attorney Eric Holder is President-elect Barack Obama’s top choice to be the next attorney general and aides have gone so far as to ask senators whether he would be confirmed, an Obama official and people close to the matter said Tuesday.

Holder, a former U.S. attorney who served as the No. 2 official in the Justice Department under President Bill Clinton, would be the nation’s first black attorney general.

An Obama official and two Democrats in touch with the transition team confirmed that Holder is Obama’s top choice but the Obama official said the decision has not been finalized.

PLUS CA CHANGE and Marc Rich…….

   It feels like the new beginning is becoming more of a retread than I expected. As always, the politicians all have to play ball with each other. Please President Elect, tell us you won’t cheat on the First Lady and will buy your kids a puppy.

   Sad sack conservatives not willing to see all that is happening … go ahead and keep crying a wailing about how horrible things are going to be in the future; as the future leaves you behind and for the better
