Holder probe hardly a witch hunt

An immigration officer was murdered with weapons ultimately supplied through an idiotic scheme of the U.S. Justice Department, and a justice-loving nation wants to know who was responsible.

The two highest law-enforcement men in the U.S. government, the president and the attorney general, now hiding behind the claim of executive privilege, are not willing to allow elected government representatives to investigate.

And hordes of defenders have shamefully arisen to defend them. A good man is dead. How dare anyone call the pursuit of those responsible a “witch hunt.”

No one is looking for witches — people are looking for those responsible for a murder, and the two people hindering the search are the very two most responsible for justice.

This tells me all I need to know about why this present administration needs to be ushered out of office this November.
