For weeks, the right has heckled Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. for his plans to try the alleged 9/11 conspirators in New York City and his handling of the Christmas bombing plot suspect. Now the left is going to be upset: an upcoming Justice Department report from its ethics-watchdog unit, the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), clears the Bush administration lawyers who authored the “torture” memos of professional-misconduct allegations.
Once again the Left made a mountain out of a molehill and got away with it long enough for it to have political impact at election time. I hope that in coming elections people will be reminded of just how very often Democrats lied and lied again about Bush and his administration.
