But Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. made it clear Monday that he’s not going anywhere.

In a speech at the Justice Department headquarters in Washington, he defended his two-year tenure and sketched out his priorities going forward, vowing to fight terrorism, violent crime and financial fraud.

4. Probably the most ineffectual AG in my lifetime

Giving war criminals and Wall Street Con men a pass, while vigorously prosecuting more whistleblowers and pot growers. I hate this guy.

5. could someone tell him about Wall Street and the Bush Depression?

I would love to see at least one of them mother effers in jail before I die.

16. I think

We're going to have to settle for congestive heart failure (ironic) and early onset Alzheimers (also ironic). Who knew the guy with no apparent heart would have CHF and the guy with no apparent brain would end up with a brain disease? I don't think either will see a jail cell but neither will have easy retirements.

12. A speed bump on the road forward

If you look hard, way in the distance you can see Holder, like flattened roadkill baked in the sun. He slows down the haves and have-mores as they try to figure out what it was before it got squashed.
