Politico: AG Holder Now Untouchable

Politico has declared embattled Attorney General Eric Holder untouchable after the many scandals, lapses, overreaches, and contempt charges have failed to induce the President to fire him.

After noting that politicians have been calling for his ouster for years, Politico says that “after years of trying to get Holder, the attorney general doesn’t seem at all worried” that he’ll be fired from his position as chief law enforcement officer of the United States of America.

Quoting only Holder’s friends on the direct question of the AG’s current status; presenting Holder as but a fall guy for Republicans to beat up on because they can’t attack the President directly; and saying that the GOP has no “discipline” and has repeatedly made claims that were “overblown or just plain goofy,” Politico says that he’ll be able to hold his job for as long as he wants to be there and with the President’s full support.

But while Politico tries to paint Holder’s tenure as beset by mere political attacks, and even as it plays it down, the Washington newser does point out some of Holder’s misdeeds in office.
