Eventually, we were left only with the crowd demanding $5-a-gallon gas taxes [...]

  No, it isn't.
  
  Many of Holder's critics appear to have forgotten that the Bush administration used civilian courts to put away dozens of terrorists, including "shoe bomber" Richard Reid; al-Qaeda agent Jose Padilla; "American Taliban" John Walker Lindh; the Lackawanna Six; and Zacarias Moussaoui, who was prosecuted' [...]
