Enough Of This Goose-Cackle About Garland Being Impervious To Political Considerations

[The Magistrate]

If a man's posture is that he is unmoved by political considerations, he must be unmoved by them from whatever direction they originate.

The fact is that Garland is primarily moved by political considerations, and never in an appropriate direction. He does not move quickly in a matter that needs speedy action, for fear of political fall-out if he does, and he moves quickly in a matter requiring no action at all for fear of political fallout if he doesn't.

I am very tired of people so concerned with what a righteous figure they cut. Strip this down to the bone Garland has the same fatal flaw as Comey: nothing is so important to him as showing everybody he's the last boy scout in Washington.
