DOJ: Seeping with the Enemy?
Few pockets of the Obama administration have been a greater liability to this President than the current Justice Department. With Attorney General Eric Holder at the helm, this DOJ is responsible for more controversies in 12 months than most administrations face in an entire term. Last year, the Department kicked off a new era by announcing its relaxed policy on obscenity cases, followed by a statement on its casual enforcement of America's drug laws. For an encore, Holder botched the NYC terror trials, mishandled Christmas bomber Umar Abdulmutallab, and now admits to employing at least nine terror sympathizers. At a hearing last year, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) raised the concern that some of the DOJ's attorneys had legally represented U.S. detainees. "This... creates a conflict of interest problem for these individuals," Grassley said. He asked Holder to follow up with the names of any Justice Department employees who have a history of advocating for terror suspects.
That was three months ago. Attorney General Holder only recently got back to Sen. Grassley, shrugging off the GOP's concerns. "[A]ll department appointees understand that their client is the United States," he claims. In all, Holder said that nine department officials had previously worked on terror cases for detainees but admitted that he only surveyed a select group. Obviously, as private attorneys, these individuals are free to advocate on the cases of their choosing. In most instances, it's entirely ethical. What bothers Republicans is that these Justice officials agreed to work for people who are committing or plotting acts of war on America. In their current capacity, the country depends on them to represent the United States' best interests--a role complicated by their past ties. What makes this situation unique is that it involves a conflict of interest with national security, not, say, the financial district. Most of us would agree that it seems counterproductive to send our soldiers to fight the enemies while our own Justice attorneys defend them.
For a Department with its share of black eyes, these lapses are only fueling the distrust Americans feel toward their government. And this isn't the only area where Holder has credibility issues. Americans for Limited Government (ALG) submitted a Freedom of Information Act request to the DOJ in response to reports that Dawn Johnsen, a radical Justice nominee, has been working for the Department without Senate approval. So far, the DOJ has ignored ALG's request. Back in October, National Review Online warned that Johnsen may have been "involving herself in OLC's decisions on hiring junior lawyers. If those reports are accurate, Johnsen's actions would seem a serious violation of the Senate's understanding of pre-confirmation etiquette." Although people like Johnsen can serve as contractors to the Office of Legal Counsel (OLC), there are limits to what they can and cannot do. In the midst of this inquiry, Johnsen's nomination is scheduled for a Senate Judiciary Committee vote on Thursday. If you need motivation on why you should contact your Senators to oppose her appointment, visit FRC's new webpage, which highlights why Johnsen is unfit to serve.
