Holder’s Firm Represents Detainees At Gitmo

by Stephan Tawney on Fri, Jan 23, 2009

How convenient. The prestigious D.C. law firm where Obama Attorney General Eric Holder is a senior partner, Covington & Burling, just happens to represent 17 detainees at Guantanamo Bay.

Just the latest disturbing development regarding a guy who lobbied for pardoning convicted FALN terrorists against the judgment of the FBI and U.S. attorneys.

Hey,  it’s not like there’s a conflict of interest here or anything. I mean, it’s not like he’s trying to get a job that is central to the detention of the terrorists that his law firm represents. Oh, wait, he is.
