Holder! Get Under the Bus!

It is now out in the open — Eric Holder personally signed on to the search warrant that targeted James Rosen of FOX News that described Rosen as a “co-conspirator” because he sought to be a journalist.

It is the job of the government to protect secret information, and it is the job of journalists to get information. Responsible journalists then must filter the secrets they do discover out of dissemination and those who don’t and cause demonstrable damage should be criminally charged.

Every journalism organization is justifiably outraged by the overreaching activity of the Justice Department, first by the AP disclosure and then by the Rosen discovery.

Holder is toast, and will be the Sacrificial Lamb of the administration, because someone HIGH must be sacrificed to act as a firewall for the president. There will be other people sacked, of course, although probably not as many as should be sacked. (Remember Fast and Furious? Not one person fired!)

Holder has been a great lightening rod for the administration. He has stalled investigation, impeded, slowed, and in the case of he new Black Panthers actually excused criminal behavior. No one can argue that Holder has not served his master well, only that he did not serve well was his ultimate boss, the American people.
