Well, whoop-de-do. Some flunkies are thrown under the bus, and Holder is off the hook.
“The report says Attorney General Eric Holder was not made aware of potential flaws in the program until February of last year.”
So.....Holder announcing implementation, funding of the program in 2009 didn’t matter????

Holder knew. Imagine someone introducing a program under the name of Holder, and them not getting fired for it if he didn't initiate the process.
I've never seen a bigger bunch of liars in my life, as the Clinnton and Obama teams coupled with the DNCp.
