Holder May Appoint Special Prosecutor

FoxNews.com is reporting that U.S. Attorney General is still contemplating prosecuting Bush Administration officials on interrogation tactics.

The report states:

Attorney General Eric Holder is considering whether to appoint a criminal prosecutor to investigate the Bush administration's interrogation practices, a controversial move that would run counter to President Barack Obama's wishes to leave the issue in the past.

Holder plans to make a final decision within the next few weeks, a Justice Department official told The Associated Press on Saturday night. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak on a pending matter.


If it is decided to go forward with an investigation, it will cause a major partisan war in Washington. This is something that President Obama doesn't need since his popularity numbers have been dropping recently.
