Tom Maguire Pins Holder to the Mat

In this short but sweet denouement  Tom Maguire whose blog, Just One Minute, is always a must read,  pins Attorney General  Eric Holder to the mat.

Eric Holder provides the smile du jour for this rhetorical surge:

Holder also lashed out at some of the more extreme charges being leveled by Republican lawmakers, such as a statement this week by Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) that federal officials who approved the “gun-walking” technique should be charged as accessories to murder.

“Such irresponsible and inflammatory rhetoric must be repudiated in the strongest possible terms,” Holder wrote. “Those who serves in the ranks of law enforcement are our nation’s heroes and deserve our nation’s thanks, not the disrespect that is being heaped on them by those who seek political advantage.”

That would stand in contrast to the investigation of CIA professionals on the front lines in the war on terror who have been investigated for their role in the enhanced interrogation program.
