2. Everything he says is true, however

Holder has been a really crappy Attorney General. He has failed to take any action against the various misdeeds of the bush administration, he hasn't done anything about suspected election fraud in many states, he has kept hands off the various Wall Street felons, he has let political prisoners like Don Siegelman rot in jail while he goes around busting medical marijuana clinics around the country.

It pisses me off to have to defend this douchebag because I really think he needs to go. He is only a surrogate for the president, however, and they are using him to get to Obama. At this point I hope the president has realized that playing nice with assholes accomplishes nothing but misery for him.

I sincerely hope that after Obama is reelected he replaces Holder with an AG who will actaully go after the real criminals in this country. Or that Holder would have the decency to get the hell out so that Obama doesn't have to fire him.
