Aretha Franklin sang. Eric Holder lied. And Obama cried.
That pretty much sums up the good-bye (and good-riddance) ceremony for Eric Holder, out-going Attorney General of the United States.
From Breitbart:
Friday, President Barack Obama spoke at the portrait unveiling ceremony for outgoing U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, which led to the commander-in-chief breaking into tears that he wiped away as he finished his remarks.
The president said, “Having good men in a position of power and authority, who are willing to fight for what is right, that is a rare thing, a powerful thing. That’s something that shapes our future in ways we don’t even understand, we don’t always imagine. It made me very proud.”
There’s nothing noble about Holder’s tenure as Attorney General. Most of us are probably crying tears of JOY that he’s finally leaving.
There have been calls for departing Attorney General Eric Holder to resign ever since the Fast and Furious scandal broke, and maybe even before. Imagine our surprise, then, when Holder finally announced — last September — that he was leaving as a matter of choice.
It’s been the longest retirement ever, but today, Holder finally made his exit, leaving a tear in the eye of President Obama and a pile of “unfinished business” in his office trash can.
