Eric Holder with one of his corrupt clients Gov. Rod Blagojevich
During a Jan. 7 news conference on Capitol Hill,Maryland’s Democrat U.S. Sen. Ben Cardin declared:
“Eric Holder is an experienced and dedicated public servant who will restore trust and confidence in a Department of Justice that recently has strayed far from its role as a non-partisan protector of the rule of law and the civil rights of all Americans. I have no doubt that Mr. Holder will be an attorney general who will serve the American people and not just the White House. He will vigorously enforce the civil rights laws to protect all Americans from unlawful discrimination and help close our nation’s justice gap.”
And speaking of justice – as Sen. Cardin mentioned (along with other participants in this press conference,including the NAACP,the National Council of LaRaza,the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights and the National Women’s Law Center),where was candidate Holder’s alleged devotion to the cause of justice in the case of Mr. Marc Rich?
I looked carefully at the press release issued by Sens. Cardin and Sheldon Whitehouse,D-R.I.,and those four organizations. I could find no mention at all of the Eric Holder outrage in the case of Marc Rich.
