Why is this in the blogger section?

This should be front page news.

...Holder participated in a five-day occupation of an abandoned Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) headquarters...

Occupy an empty office? Wow, bold move! < /sarc >

Is anyone really surprised at this revelation? Columbia was known to be one of the nation's leading hotbeds of campus radicalism during the Viet Nam era (does anyone remember Mark Rudd?) and one would think that Holder's roots as a hard leftist and black racist go far back in his life.

Columbia's history of leftist student and faculty activity, BTW, dates back much further. In the 1920s and 1930s, it was home to many well-known communist and communist-sympathizing intellectuals.

Hylton described Sims as “the attorney general’s closest friend” and “a man Holder describes as his ‘consigliere.’"

This seems to be something rather important. The implication of this statement from Holder's old pal is that Holder regards himself as the head of a Mafia family!!!

Well, I suppose anyone given the authority to plan the kidnapping of Elian Gonzalez and to send him back to Cuba (as Holder did as Deputy AG during the Clinton era) is justified in thinking that way.
