WE NEED TO LOOK AT THOSE OVER AT THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AND WHERE THEY WORKED BEFORE THEY GOT THERE BECAUSE I THINK ONE OF THE REASONS PROSECUTION ISN’T THE LEVEL THAT IT SHOULD THERE IS SOME PARALYSIS IN SOME PLACES BECAUSE OF THOSE WHO ARE ABLE TO BLOCK A PLAY.

Bloomberg-

There’s an old saying in journalism that there are no new stories, only new reporters. The revelation that U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder’s old law firm used to represent the bankrupt brokerage firm MF Global Holdings is a great example.

Here’s the lead paragraph from an article yesterday on the right-leaning news website Breitbart.com, which was following up on an op-ed in the Washington Times:

“Those wondering why the Department of Justice has refused to go after Jon Corzine for the vaporization of $1.6 billion in MF Global client funds need look no further than the documents uncovered by the Government Accountability Institute that reveal that the now-defunct MF Global was a client of Attorney General Eric Holder and Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer’s former law firm, Covington & Burling.”
