Attorney General Eric Holder arrived in Kabul Wednesday to discuss the "rule of law" with Afghan President Hamid Karzai, the Justice Department said.

"We have watched with interest from Washington the positive steps President Karzai and his Cabinet have taken to help improve governance and enforce the rule of law," Holder said in a statement after meeting with Karzai, Minister of Justice Habibullah Ghalib and Attorney General Mohammad Ishaq Aloko. "We applaud President Karzai for his actions and encourage him to continue his efforts as much work remains to be done."

Isn't that rich? One has to wonder just what it is the Karzai administration is doing specifically to "improve" when the miserable hack that runs the Justice Department is praising those efforts with respect to the rule of law.

Holder is the last person on this planet to be assessing the merits of anybody's good governance or committment to the rule of law.
