Resisting calls to appoint a special prosecutor, Attorney General Eric Holder has assigned two Justice Department attorneys to investigate national security leaks that may have originated in the White House and are widely seen as bolstering the president's campaign for re-election.

Ronald Machen, the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, is one of the attorneys assigned by Holder to the leak case. In a 2010 profile in the Washington Post, Machen referred to Obama as a "legend" at Harvard and admitted that he was a great admirer of Obama and donated money to the president's 2004 senate campaign.

I'm sure we can expect Mr. Machen to do a thorough job...of looking the other way.

Machen was recommended for the job by Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.), who submitted his name to President Obama. Obama nominated him, and the Senate confirmed him.

Machen has long admired Obama -- since his days at Harvard Law School, where Obama already was a "legend," Machen said. In 2003, Machen was one of the first people to donate to Obama's U.S. Senate campaign, long before he emerged on the national political stage.

Attorney General Eric Holder should resign


We know these leaks came from the Obama administration, and some may have even come from the Justice Department. Mr. Holder faces a clear conflict of interest. This is exactly the type of situation that calls for a special prosecutor.

Unfortunately, Mr. Holder has rejected that option and instead chosen Ronald Machen, the US Attorney for the District of Columbia, to lead an investigation. This decision offers yet another example of Holder’s poor judgment. Mr. Machen has donated thousands of dollars to President Obama’s political campaigns; he vetted vice presidential candidates for the Obama team in 2008; and he got his first job as a federal prosecutor from, you guessed it, Eric Holder.

In short, Mr. Machen’s inquiry will not seem truly independent. It is insulting for the attorney general to pretend otherwise. Once again he has shown his penchant for putting politics ahead of justice.

Americans deserve an Attorney General who will uphold basic standards of honesty, transparency, and accountability. They deserve an attorney general whose loyalty to the justice system will trump his loyalty to the White House. They deserve an attorney general who will treat Congress and the public with respect, not contempt. They deserve someone better than Mr. Holder.

There are two, count them two, U.S. Attorneys investigating the leaks. The FBI is also involved. I guess it doesn't fit their narrative to include the Bush appointed Attorney and the FBI in the investigation.

The bush appointed person is probably as sleazy as bush and would do anything for money and power same as the obama.

The f.b.i. has very little credibility left.

The story is obviously biased and implies there is a coverup when no such evidence is apparent. I am "filling in" the details they "forgot".
 Quoting: Major_Payne


Anyone following this case already knows who the other Attorney is. You are just making a sad attempt to shill for Obama.

There obviously is a cover-up in both the leaks case, and fast & furious. Eric Holder, Barack Obama, DOJ, and the white house refuse to release all of the infomation and documents they are holding... and covering-up.

Now... Answer these 3 questions.

How about we find a special prosecutor that doesn't have deep ties to all of these corrupt politicians?

Why doesn't Eric Holder, DOJ, and The White House release all of the information on the leaks, and fast & furious...?

Wouldn't that be going by the "Transparency" Barack Obama promised the American people?

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 17851605


Would you like them to put it on the internet? Every single document that has anything to do with Operation Fast and Furious. I'm sure there is confidential information in a lot of it. And the Leak case is being handled by the FBI. Isn't that sufficient for you?

In a previous post Payne you said essentially holder has released all the documents. Now you are asking what do you want them to do ? put it on the internet?

Well no. Releasing the documents to the Oversight committee isn't quite the same thing is it?

and you are using the F.B.I. STRAWMAN. You don't see the desparate illogic you are employing in defending a bunch of criminals.

Have you ever considered that your blinders might be because of your sad ideology?

(( Last month, a prominent Republican Senator explicitly asked the FBI to investigate a possible leak related to the AQAP operation involving John Brennan, chief counter-terrorism advisor at the White House.

In a letter to Mueller, Senate Intelligence Committee vice chairman Saxby Chambliss asked the FBI about a Reuters story last month which disclosed that a briefing by Brennan may have inadvertently tipped the media to sensitive information about an undercover informant who played a central role in the case.

The FBI wrote back that it shared Chambliss' concerns and would investigate all leads, according to a source familiar with the matter.

Still, it remains unclear how large a role Brennan's actions will play in the investigation into leaks regarding AQAP.

The briefing by Brennan, came after an Associated Press report disclosed that US counter-terrorism officials had disrupted a plot by the al Qaeda affiliate to plant an underwear bomber on a US flight.

ON-AIR TV ANALYSTS BRIEFED

In a subsequent conference call, Brennan told former counter-terrorism officials who appear as on-air TV analysts that the bomb plot was never a real threat because the US had "inside control" over it.

Within hours, one of the former officials who was on the call with Brennan speculated on the air that the US "had somebody on the inside" of the plot.

By the next day, news outlets were reporting that the US had planted a double-agent inside al Qaeda affiliate.

Because of the leaks, US and allied officials said they were forced to prematurely end the operation.))

All the national security leaks... to make Barack Obama look good for his election.

On the other hand the murderers Barack Obama & Eric Holder won't release all of the documents for fast & furious.

There must be some pretty damning evidence in the fast & furious documents they don't want the American people to see.
