Politics / News Eric Holder's Mustache Will Keep No Secrets From You, Not Any More

Well, in a reminder to you, me, and everyone else on the MoveOn mailing list to calm down, be patient, maybe breath into a paper bag for a minute if necessary while we wait for things to get just a little better, the Justice Department is set to announce an overhaul of the process by which the government asserts the states secret privilege; it will involve a formalized, exhaustive (and thus, hopefully, stringent) review policy that will require, among other things, for Attorney General Eric Holder's Heroic Mustache to sign off on any claim of state secrets.
There is good news out there, especially if you're so fucking depressed about all the bad news that you just reflexively skip any and all news stories pertaining to healthcare, climate, financial regulatory reform, Afghanistan, the Middle East... Basically, this news item is the part where my mother tells me, "You're here in Brooklyn. Brooklyn is not expanding", except instead of my mother it's Eric Holder, and his mustache.

There's a rumor going around that Eric Holder penned the book Ransom X - a pretty racy fiction thriller book about an FBI interrogator who goes too far (does that sound familiar?). The name on the book is I.B. Holder, but that sounds like a pen name. The book is pretty good, but the crimes in it are pretty graphic. I can see why he wouldn't want his name on it. If he did write it, I think it's pretty cool. I like the fact that he’s got a wild side.
