		<description>Eric Holder&#039;s Conflict of Interest
by Dana Jill Simpson     Page 1 of 1 page(s) 
www.opednews.com
For months, we have been trying to get to the bottom of why Eric Holder would not really investigate the cases of Mr. Siegelman and Mr. Scrushy,  Mr. Minor, the two other judges in Mississippi and Charles Walker. Well, I finally have the answer .  I got it from writing my Greg Craig article that was located on the Jason Leopold website Public record.

I got a tip and I researched it. And boy, was I shocked at what I learned.  Seems Mr. Holder, before being selected Attorney General of the United States of America, worked for a firm called Covington and Burling.  The tip I got was that the firm had a very important client whose name was George W. Bush and they represented a very important organization I am sure ya&#039;ll all have heard of - the Republican National Committee.  I was in shock when I checked it and it was true.  My favorite research item I ran across is when they were protecting the RNC from having to turn over Karl Rove&#039;s emails that were run on the RNC Servers. It shocked me.  Plus I found it mighty interesting that AG Eric Holder never enlightened anyone about his conflict of coming from a big Washington DC law firm that represented the Republican National Committee and George W. Bush in the 2000 election contest.

 But then, it all made sense to me. He would have had to appoint a special A.G. to be over the Stevens case, over the Tobin case, and over the Kott case, and over the Abramoff/Feeney case. But if he just kept his mouth shut maybe just maybe no one would catch him dismissing all those cases. Which no one did until the tip came in.  It has long been reported that the expenses in those cases were picked up by the RNC.  That same RNC that paid A.G. Holder&#039;s law firm, that same law firm  then paid A.G. Holder over two million dollars last year.  Shame on A.G. Holder! He had an ethical duty to tell the citizens of America he had a conflict in investigating all these cases and all the torture cases. Instead, he tried to ignore it or hide it instead of doing the right thing and getting out of the cases. 

 Additionally, he has ignored to date all the Democrats in this country who are complaining and have proof that they were politically targeted by the RNC and Karl Rove. He has not done the right thing -  ask President Obama to appoint a special counsel, all along knowing he has a conflict because of his firm&#039;s representation of the RNC.  Since Holder has done all this, he should be immediately removed from this position of power. Innocent men are in jail and he has played games.  


The United States citizens should have the right to know when their A.G. has a conflict of interest;  the A.G. has a professional duty to tell them and take appropriate action. Mr Holder failed to do the right thing as A.G. He should be removed.   If you doubt me,  google Eric Holder and Covington and Burling.  Then google Covington and Burling and George W. Bush, and also google them and Karl Rove and RNC emails.  Shame on you, Holder!  You are caught!

		<description>&quot;It is always easier to ask forgiveness than permission.&quot;     
 -- US Marine Proverb

	The Bush administration did not ask for our permission to break laws which it had assumed were liabilities in war.  To fail in war, after taking so much power to ones self, without even a weak apology!

	The laws the Bush administration broke did more than maintain the balance of power between the branches of government. They were also to prevent a single incontestable personality from dominating the decision processes of going to, and in prosecuting, a war. 

	He hid and distorted facts, so that any independent or contrary point of view would not have any support.  The facts that he released would only support his predetermined actions. The laws he broke were the ones that would have had more eyes looking at the information and more minds looking for patterns that would bring success in avenging 9-11.  

	He restricted our options and bungled our opportunities to avenge 9-11. He put us in a position where the enemy could kill more of us. He has made himself Shogun to a hostage Constitution and the only acceptable apology would be Seppuku.

	But Bush is not a Shogun,
		 and he is not above the law.</description>

		<description>Britain is investigating Tony Blair for his part in the run up to the Iraq War.  There have already been many threats by the European community to arrest various Bush administration members should they present themselves inside their borders.  Who do we think we&#039;re fooling?  We would just make ourselves look even more foolish than we do now with our ridiculous arguments about whether a technique for which we have already tried, found guilty, and punished severely war criminals from other wars.  The investigation has to be thorough and soon - or Europe will do it for us!</description>

		<description>What is the definition of Colonialism? The invasion of weaker countries by the Europeans and Americans through the centuries, on their corporations and conglomerates behalf, to plunder their natural resources and lands for colonization. As well as the enslavement, slaughter and genocide of the Indigenous inhabitants. Theft and Murder. 
 India, Iran, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Phillipines,  Algeria, Hawaii, Venezuela, Canada, America, South America, the Europeans and Americans were there, assassinating, manipulating, and setting up puppet regimes to ensure their access to their resources. Like leeches and other parasites.
 The Neo Cons and their bought off American government will never admit their policies of Colonialism is Theft and Murder and results in Terrorism. To do so, they&#039;ll have to admit they&#039;re guilty of Theft and Murder and are ultimately responsible for the attacks against the United States, including the bombing of the Marine Barracks in Beirut, the USS Cole bombing, and the 1993 attacks against the World Trade Center and again on 9/11 with the murder of 3,000 Americans.
