Holder should quit fast and furiously

Old military truism: The bad stuff settles at the bottom.

I wasn’t in basic training at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio for three days when I heard that. It came from S.Sgt. Wallace Tidwell, my military training instructor, who was a Tennessee good ‘ol boy.

Tidwell, who stood about 5 feet 8 inches tall and was as wide as a Sherman tank, didn’t use the term “bad stuff.” He chose a word that was a bit more scatological in nature.

That was the military; now that I’m a journalist, the truism has changed. The “bad stuff” doesn’t settle at the bottom. It kind of rises to the top.

That means when bad stuff happens, it’s those in charge, not those at the bottom, who need to be held accountable.
