Crooks and Liars: "The position of attorney general, although it's appointed by the president, is very different from all the rest of the appointments. Because he is all of us, every citizen in this country, the chief law-enforcement officer of this land. His loyalty is not to the president, his loyalty has to be to the Constitution. It has to be to the responsible bodies that guide this country."
This is Senator Tom Coburn's statement on the nomination of Eric Holder for AG in the Obama administration. Where was Senator Tom Coburn, R-Oklahoma, when anyone asked Attorney General Alberto "I do not recall" Gonzalez, anything. AG Gonzalez' only real competence was his loyalty to GWB. Period. I do not believe you can find one reference by Senator Coburn that questions the AG's ability to represent the country and not GWB. I do not think that the current crop of Republicans have any credibility on this issue.
