Eric Holder is a reprehensible disgrace who has transformed the federal department that he heads into the Department of Just Us.
Even before being named to his present position, he disqualified himself for it by his having circumvented established procedures to grease through the pardon of the international financier and fugitive Marc Rich in the closing nighttime hours of the Clinton Administration. How his appointment came to be confirmed by the Senate is another story for another time.
His next notable achievement was to give a free pass to truncheon wielding New Black Panther Party thugs who had engaged in voter intimidation and to institute racist policies in his department to overlook similar transgressions -- black crimes against white victims -- throughout the United States in the future. Details of Mr. Holder's oversight of the current administration's reverse racism are spelled out by the estimable
economist and social scientist Thomas Sowell in this excellent column.
Most recently, he has engaged in a cover up of, and led efforts to thwart an investigation into his department having provided vast quantities of assault weapons to Mexico's drug cartels, members of which have used those weapons to murder American law enforcement officers. As is made clear by this letter from the head of the congressional investigation into this latest travesty, the only remaining question about Mr. Holder is whether he is (i) hopelessly incompetent, or (ii) a felonious perjurer.
