"...one Obama appointee, Principal Deputy Solicitor General Neal Katyal, formerly represented Osama bin Laden's driver...
and
"Holder says other Obama appointees, like Holder himself, came from law firms which represented detainees but did no work on behalf of the terrorist prisoners."
and my MOST FAVORITE line:
"...it is possible that there are MORE THAN NINE political appointees who worked for detainees. Holder tells Grassley that he did not survey the Justice Department AS A WHOLE but instead canvassed several large offices within the organization."
It is time to impeach.
Well, actually we need to wait till we get the house, but the evidence is overwhelming.
heads up.
Agree.

What’s Holder Hiding? [Robert Costa]
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R., Iowa) is warring with Attorney General Eric Holder over potential conflicts of interest in the Department of Justice over the handling of terrorist detainees. In a recent letter to Grassley, Holder admitted that nine Obama Justice Department appointees represented or advocated for terrorist detainees before joining the department. Holder acknowledged only two by name — principal deputy solicitor general Neal Katyal, a former attorney for Osama bin Laden’s driver, and Jennifer Daskal, a former detainee advocate at Human Rights Watch.
In an interview with National Review Online, Grassley fumed. Holder’s letter, he said, which was sent in response to a request Grassley made last November, leaves much unanswered. “The country has the right to know what the predilections of people in the Justice Department are toward terrorism, especially if they’re giving constitutional rights to terrorists,” he says. “They’re going to regret hiding names. I don’t know why they’re hiding, unless they have something to hide.”
“To me, this is a case of our own public servants or political appointees having an agenda of their own instead of being concerned with the national security of the United States,” Grassley says. “This letter creates a lot of suspicion about conflicts of interest, and it’s out of character for an administration that promised transparency. If I was in the majority, this would demand a hearing or an investigation.” He adds that all attorneys who have been involved with terrorist detainee cases before joining the department should reveal themselves, or be revealed by Holder, and recuse themselves from any case involving terrorists and national security.
Calling Holder’s response simultaneously “obnoxious” and “ludicrous,” Grassley concludes that “without the names and details, we have a reason to question what’s really going on here.”

This is the kind of gate, HolderGate, that will turn people with pitchforks into people with rifles.
The Republicans should filibuster anything and everything until these 9 are named and swiftly fired.
THANK YOU,

Eric Holder successfully argued for the pardoning of the FLAN terrorists for Clinton.
Obama has known Islam on three continents as part of his daily life and he has seen Islam at work first hand on his PREinaugural trip to Europe in 2008.
Note especially the text of Obama’s speeches in Berlin and Cairo, especially, were he was welcomed as a native son; his father’s Muslim ancestors of the Luo tribe migrated out of Egypt to Sudan and across Somalia to Kenya.
