Another day, another display of the passive-aggressive relationship the Obama administration has with the CIA and the overall intelligence community. This latest threat to prosecute CIA officials is not only a threat to the those involved in the interrogations but will only serve to hamper current and future information gathering.

Those involved will now be hesitant to act for fear of being prosecuted by an overly sensitive Eric Holder. In the end if he does not prosecute the damage is already done. It reminds me of how metropolitan police departments react when they are guided by activist citizen groups in so called police brutality cases. In this case Eric Holder is the leader of the activist group hampering the role and stoking fear within the intelligence community.
