Let’s be blunt here: The Marc Rich pardon was one of the most disgraceful chapters in the history of the Justice Department. Not the modern history, the entire history. Rich was accused of mega-crimes: millions in fraud, tax-evasion, and trading with the America’s enemies. In 2000, he was a fugitive. He had been one for nearly two decades, during which the government had expended immense resources in a futile attempt to apprehend him.

Shocked, I tell you, to learn that a president who pals around with terrorists is appointing an Attorney General who has arranged for terrorists to be pardoned.

Well, Lanny Davis says he’s the most qualified nominee, so I guess he must be.
