Congress, Senate gone & Holder too. Matt Taibbi's back - and we do?

No one is really in shock about the way the elections went. Except for those of U.S. who wanted Wendy to win, McConnell and other tools gone too. Many are even relieved (for a short bit) about not getting 100 begs for money on a daily basis. Be that as it may, we must move on.

One good thing is - Eric Holder is (reportedly) - Gone!

Then, like a good dream coming at very bad times - BOOM - Matt Taibbi is back (again) at Rolling Stone. Doing so with a great piece; which also reminds U.S. how crappy things have been.

Is it President Obama's fault?

Yes and No!

POTUS Obama is at fault for picking Eric Holder; of that there's no doubt. Originally I reveled in the fact that we had both a non-Caucasian POTUS and USAG. Then, time and time again, my hopes for justice withered away. Holder was a tool of Wall Street; and Taibbi's articles documents that hands down.

How do we go foward? - What do we do?
