This is troubling to say the least:
Obama's AG Choice was Key Figure in Clinton Terrorist Clemency Controversy
Thursday, November 20, 2008
Eric Holder, the long-time Washington lawyer chosen by President-elect Barack Obama to be the next attorney general, was a central figure in the
controversy surrounding the clemency petitions of 16 convicted terrorists during the Clinton administration.
Holder, who was deputy attorney general from 1997 until 2001, oversaw all of the requests for clemency filed during those years, including requests
from former domestic terrorists, drug traffickers and a number of disgraced politicians.

So the corruption that was rampant in the Clinton Whitehouse, will be also present in the Obama Administration.
Why is this no real surprise?
We knew all about the connections during the election process, yet I suppose that we held some hope that this would truly be a "different"
administration and not just more of the same.
With a House and Senate spouting an approval rating of just over 10%, the lowest in history, we now have an Administration that will cater to the same
ideology.
Sell your stocks and horde your money, it's going to be a rough ride.
