Holder's law firm has over 600 attorneys. In addition, many of the Gitmo defendants are represented by US military officers who have called the proceeding a sham. You can do the research, but I bet the US military currently represents, and has represented, more Gitmo detainees than Holders law firm. So I guess the Pentagon, and officers such as Lt Cmdr Kuebler, must also be of questionable character?

While all should have their own opinion, in the interest of accuracy, allow me to point out that your 8 MONTH OLD article may or may not be accurate, HOWEVER, the fact the Mr Holder defended the FALN terrorists pardoned by President Clinton and his defense of Marc Rich's pardon AND the fact that the firm of which he is a senior partner does in fact represent 17 folks interred at GTMO (17 or about 9% of the total population that President Obama considers dangerious) are also pertinent.
I would consider those facts to be of interest !!!
Now, that may be ok with you...and with many others. It does bother me a bit !!!!
