Hooray For Holder
Jeff Rosen likes the AG pick:
As deputy AG, Holder,
supervised all of the administrative and enforcement components of the Justice
department, and understands the importance of professionalism rather than
politics. This is particularly important in offices like the Division of
Justice Management, which recently approved Gonzales's request for taxpayers to
pay his private attorneys fees (rather than relying on DOJ lawyers) in the suit
against him by law students who allege he refused to hire them because of their
political beliefs. What a relief it will be to have a Justice department where
you can trust that these sorts of decisions are being made on the merits rather
than for partisan reasons.
