'And he achieved what?' Harry Reid's praise of Eric Holder's 'lasting legacies' questioned

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is probably best known as a master of obstruction, so it’s no wonder that he’d be a fan of Attorney General Eric Holder and his “determined effort” to prevent justice being done in a number of Obama administration scandals. Oh, and his efforts on behalf of civil rights.

One of Eric Holder's lasting legacies will be his determined effort to address issues affecting the civil rights of all Americans.

@SenatorReid And he achieved what?

@SenatorReid as much of a lie as saying Obama deserves the Nobel Peace Prize…

@SenatorReid @woodhouseb lasting legacy will be contempt of Congress and making John Mitchell look ethical. But that"s just me.

Great effort, Attorney General Holder.

@GallSueJoe @SenatorReid 4 out of 5 Mexican gun runners agree.
