- even more amazed Holder deigned to respond to it (notice I did not say “answered”)

- and absolutely thunderstruck that a piece about it appeared in the Washington Post.

Somebody must be getting scared, and I sincerely hope that their fears are justified. This gang of Chicago thugs is a disgrace to our nation.

Holder defends keeping Petraeus inquiry from White House until after election

Would it have made a difference? Would the media have reported it?

Not condoning, just not sure why the media would care at this point when anyone remotely sentient knows they’d have tried to bury it as well.

The FBI notified the executive branch with a call to Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper Jr. on the evening of Election Day, Nov. 6. Holder said the call was made then because the bureau had “conducted a critical interview the Friday before. When we got to that point, we thought it appropriate to notify the president.”

So how come you didn’t notify the President the Friday before, champ? Why take four days?

“What we did was conduct the investigation in the way we normally conduct a criminal investigation,” Holder said in a news conference in New Orleans.

From a competent AG, that would be reassuring. From Holder, not so much.

Same Holder/Obama investigate Petraeus right after he decides to testify.

How does the Earth not open up and swallow such charlatans?
