I nominate Mike Papantonio for US Attorney General

[mountain grammy]

America's lawyer! A voice for the people and the environment! Unafraid of Corporate power!

[Octafish]

1. Mike certainly would stand up for the 100-percent.

Don't know him personally, but I do know where he stands.

[Autumn]

2. I doubt he would stand an ice cubes chance in hell

sad state of affairs.

[bigdarryl]

3. Not going to happen

To liberal.It would be nice though

[Autumn]

4. He is too liberal. I don't think Obama would even

nominate him.

[jwirr]

11. And if he did the Senate would not confirm him. Same reason - too liberal.

[Capt. Obvious]

13. How about in a ring of fire?

[CanonRay]

5. Every CEO in the country would crap his/her pants in the same instant

Great idea!

[mountain grammy]

15. I know, right?

[Veganhealedme]

6. Pap would actually bring justice back to the DOJ..

that makes him 'unqualified' in the eyes of our oligarchs.

But still, he gets my vote.

[Cleita]

7. Pap himself has said that the new AG will be another

Wall Street friendly one like Holder. He said not to look for a big change.

[zeemike]

12. Yep...that is the only one that will be allowed to serve.

There are lots of gate keepers.

[adirondacker]

8. That would be THE ticket!

Imagine the fucking spectacle it would create. That alone would be worth it, even if they managed to block the nomination.

[mountain grammy]

16. It'd be the Revolutionary War all over again. Bring it on, it'd be so worth it!

[adirondacker]

18. On second thought, I think Anita Hill would make an EXCEPTIONAL AG!

I think both would be Exceptional nominees.

[mountain grammy]

19. Now we're thinking outside the box... good choice!

[HereSince1628]

9. And a voice that's regularly calls the R's names

I would think that would keep him from holding that office.

[Savannahmann]

10. I know who I'd like to see.

Susan N. Herman.

[mountain grammy]

17. Good choice, I'll second that..

Mike's a dream, and I would like to see a woman appointed.

[DrBulldog]

14. A timely opportunity to nominate an Attorney General with balls ...

... but its not clear at all whether Obama could recognize a pair if he saw them.

[Jamaal510]

20. Yeah he's great,

but I wouldn't bet on the Republicans letting that happen.

[Sanity Claws]

21. That would be a good way to make Eric Holder stay as AG

The Senate wouldn't approve him. Eric H will stay as AG until his replacement is approved. That's not bad.

[mountain grammy]

22. Actually, I can't see the Senate approving anyone Obama appoints

so he might as well go for it.

[Not a Fan]

23. Papantonio for AG

That would rock. Love his "take no prisoners" way of doing things.
