Ex-federal Prosecutor Launches Probe Of Holder


A former federal prosecutor and relentless litigator whose enemies in Washington include politicians on both sides of the aisle has announced he is launching an investigation of Attorney General Eric Holder.

Larry Klayman, founder of Freedom Watch USA, still is known in Washington as the biggest enemy of the city's elite, and his battles against corruption in the Clinton administration became so well known the "West Wing" character Harry Klaypool was based on his work.

"Eric Holder is typical of the corrupt establishment crowd that voters rebelled against last Tuesday when they voted to elect as senator Scott Brown from Massachusetts," Klayman told WND.

"In fact, the decision by the Obama administration to go soft on non-citizen terrorists was a key factor in this vote. Now, it is time to investigate and create the climate to get rid of Eric Holder, before lasting damage is done to our national security.

Klayman, a former Justice Department prosecutor and founder of both Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, said his new organization has launched an investigation of Holder.

"The attorney general's refusal to prosecute admitted terrorists, like the Christmas Day bomber and the infamous Khalid Sheikh Mohammad (KSM), as so-called 'enemy combatants' has resulted in the hindrance of national security and law enforcement agencies," he said in a prepared statement. "This refusal by Holder not only resulted in Miranda rights being read to the Christmas Day bomber – preventing the FBI and other agencies from obtaining meaningful intelligence from him when his lawyer stopped the interrogation – but with regard to KSM, has also jeopardized the safety of New York City residents, due to the insistence of investigating an act of terror as if it were a common crime."

I'm all for watchdogs but this man's own words make it sound more like a witch-hunt. So you disagree with Holder's methods; vote out his boss. Instead under the guise of watchdog, you simply want to "create a climate to get rid of Holder". WTF?! Can you say sham investigation?

Holder is a corrupt, anti-American sleazebag that pardoned the Black Panthers from felonies ,his law firm defended Gitmo detainees and he refuses to reveal the names of his staff that participated in the defense. He is a son of a gun, and instrumental in destroying our Constitution.

9:58am would it be a witch hunt if you read that he also sued George W Bush for wiretapping, read the rest of the article. Holder is bad news and should not be anywhere near our gov't much less in the dept of Justice.
