Eric Holder, at some point, is going to realize that his position on going after interrogators is morally and politically untenable, and that he himself will become a sacrificial pawn. Why?

1) Given his disreputable role in the Clinton pardons of both the odious, pay-for-play Mr. Rich, and the creepy Puerto Rican terrorists (tied by the FBI to at least 130 bombings, serial armed robberies, six murders, and general mayhem), Holder ever since has had little moral authority on anything to do with attorney general office prerogatives, and especially no standing to begin reopening cases of those who were trying to jail and question terrorists in the national interest, rather than, as in his own past efforts, free terrorists for careerist purposes.

2) He is already on record in a CNN interview once explaining why the terrorist detainees at Guantanamo and elsewhere are neither prisoners of war nor are they warranted protection under the Geneva accords. The only thing that has changed since that admission is his job.

3) He already lost a great deal of public support with his silly collective slurring of Americans as “cowards,” who purportedly do not wish to talk of race ad nauseam in terms defined by Holder’s elite identity politics.

I think Holder is one or two outbursts or one more inept decision away from being Obamized under the bus.
