*beats chest*

Eric Holder, who heads Mr Obama’s justice department, is said to have become “incensed” after being accused by David Axelrod of complaining publicly about political interference in his office.

Fight!!!

… author Daniel Klaidman ['Kill or Capture: The War on Terror and the Soul of the Obama Presidency'] … writes: “The two men stood chest to chest. It was like a school yard fight”

Popcorn!!

Mr Holder and Mr Axelrod were separated by Valerie Jarrett, a White House adviser and confidante to Mr Obama. Ms Jarrett “pushed her way between the two men, her sense of decorum disturbed, ordering them to ‘take it out of the hallway’,”

Hadda be broken up by a old broad pit viper guuuurl!!!

“sense of decorum” *splork*

The relatively mild-mannered Mr Axelrod is said to have told the attorney general: “Don’t ever, ever accuse me of trying to interfere with the operations of the Justice Department”, a taboo in US politics.

oh… nevermiind. Planted story.
sorry.

    I think it’s time someone dug into the facts about Miss Valery. The hell with those two—

    Looking at Ms Jarrett, I’m reminded of the statement that sharks roll onto their sides to bite.

    Also in the news, Politico thinks a political candidate making his own decisions is a bad thing.

    By objecting to White House interference in the Justice Department, Holder has now stuck himself with all of the blame when the indictments come down. Otherwise, he would have been able to claim “simple cog on the wheel” status. Smooth strategizing, there, Sparky.

    Of the three, she’s the most likely to possess a pair of balls.

    The other two are standard-issue male liberal fops.

    Looking at Ms Jarrett, I’m reminded of the statement that sharks roll onto their sides to bite.

    First, I had to quit laughing about the shark thing.
    Then, I tried to remember about human female body language (which eludes me, due to not thinking about it much).
    I thought, “Improbable as it seems, instead of ‘shark-rolling-to-bite body language,’ could this possibly be ‘attracted-&-courting body language?’”
    Then I thought, “Well, in this case, what would be the difference?”

    PS: I would so love for a special prosecutor to be going through the life and times of MS Jarrett. Well, actually, everybody else in the room too.
