Mr. Holder Goes To Afghanistan

The man who believes that admitted terrorists who have killed thousands should be tried in civilian court, that the US federal government should sue individual states for protecting themselves when that federal government will not and that his own country is a "nation of cowards" with regard to race has been sent to Afghanistan to foster the development of that country's justice system.

Speaking about his international mission, US Attorney General Eric Holder said, "Fighting corruption and supporting the rule of law in Afghanistan are top priorities for this Administration, and we will continue to assist the Afghan government in creating and sustaining the effective criminal justice system to which the Afghan people are entitled."
Perhaps those are the administraion's top priorities in Afghanistan, but here at home Obama & Company's idea of "fighting corruption" is fighting charges of corruption (see Sestak, Romanoff, Blagojevich, et al) and "supporting the rule of law" is using the civilian court system to dodge the administration's responsibility to defend the nation. This radical politician poorly disguised as a champion of justice is not the person anyone, let alone a war-torn developing nation, should be looking to for expert advice.
Remember, this is the man who, while Deputy Attorney General in the Clinton administration, was instrumental in obtaining a presidential pardon for fugitive and Democratic contributor Marc Rich. Certainly there are plenty of more qualified legal minds without Mr. Holder's political baggage and challenged ethics who could assist the Afghan government.
