The Clintamanation Administration is in full swing, where is Sandy Hamburglar when you need him?
Why did you tools vote for Obama when you got mostly Clinton people? Clintons you can believe in?
Holder was to Justice what Raines was to Freddie Mac, or is that a racist comparison now?

What’s the matter? Isn’t Lani Guinier (spelling dubious) available?

Hah, I forgot about her. How about Zoe Baird?

Yep, apparently Obama is going to dig up Goebbels, Himmler and Hess.

“President-elect Obama has decided to tap Eric Holder…”

Ok, that’s just gross, and more information than I need. Let’s keep his private life private, huh?

I read that 30 percent or so Cuban Americans, my fellow Cuban Americans, voted for Obama.
Look what they got. You damn drones!

And if I remember rightly Holder is one that believes the 2nd Amendment is not an individual right. Here we go!

Here's just a bit of Eric Holder's good works:

To settle the Justice Department's claim for monetary damages, today's agreement requires Chevy Chase to pay $11 million to the redlined areas through a special loan program and the opening of bank branches and mortgage offices. The bank will pay at least $7 million by offering special home mortgage loans to all residents of majority black areas in Washington, D.C. and Prince George's County, Maryland, resulting in approximately $140 million in special financing for the communities. The offering will make home loan financing available at either 1% less than the prevailing rate or 1/2% below the market rate combined with a grant to be applied to the down payment requirement.

IMO, the most important thing to know about Eric Holder at this point in time is that he was also Janet Reno’s right hand man in pursuing DOJ lawsuits against banks for “redlining”, which ultimately forced banks to give bad loans, which led to the housing crisis, which caused the economy to tank.

Great pick, Barry! Way to cover Barney Frank’s ass, et al.

Damn, if you’re from Massachusetts like me you are really upset at this point. We were looking at a chance of getting rid of both Deval and Kerry, at least that was one change Barry could have done for us. Now it looks like there’s no way we’re getting rid of either one.

Obama is a fool if he populates his administration with Clinton cronies. First sign of trouble they will sell him out. He would off starting with a clean slate of incompetent idiots like him instead of the old retread incompetent idiots.
