Newsweek: AG Eric Holder "Leaning Toward Appointing A Prosecutor To Investigate The Bush Administration"

Newsweek writes: "'You have the responsibility of enforcing the nation’s laws, and you have to be seen as neutral, detached, and nonpartisan in that effort,' Holder says. 'But the reality of being A.G. is that I’m also part of the president’s team. I want the president to succeed; I campaigned for him. I share his world view and values.' These are not just the philosophical musings of a new attorney general. Holder, 58, may be on the verge of asserting his independence in a profound way. Four knowledgeable sources tell NEWSWEEK that he is now leaning toward appointing a prosecutor to investigate the Bush administration’s brutal interrogation practices, something the president has been reluctant to do."

Be sure to note the bias in Newsweek's article as the author talks about "brutal interrogation practices." Tweet
