Passing the Buck
During the presidential campaign and early on during his tenure as president, Barack Obama declared his administration would not look backward and investigate the CIA’s activities (during the Bush Administration) in its interrogation of proven or suspected Islamic terrorists.
Just last week, after Eric Holder, his attorney general, launched such an investigation after all, Obama stated he had nothing to do with Holder’s decision. Obama stated he has no influence over his attorney general.
Barack Obama is not telling the truth or he is unwilling to face it. He knows he has power over his attorney general. According to the Constitution, the president is the chief law enforcement officer of the land. Barack Obama has always known this, otherwise he never would have made the declaration that there would be no investigation.
Obama is unwilling to take responsibility for Holder’s behavior. Obama is acting like a full fledged coward. We need a strong president, not a weak coward!

Just another blatant lie from our socialist president.
Does anyone seriously think that Obama was not told about the release of the Lockerbie terrorist? He knew.
All cabinet members submit a letter of resignation when they are appointed. All Obama would have to do is tell Holder I accept you resignation
No, Joe. You think Bush was right in telling his Justice Department to fire people because they wouldn't prosecute Democrats. Obama is telling his Justice Department to enforce the law, and he's going to let his attorney general investigate things as he sees fit. But your conservative brain can't handle it because you've been brainwashed by the Bush/Cheney team to politicize the justice department.
