Sister of 9/11 Victim Calls Out Eric Holder

The sister of a 9/11 victim poked holes today in Monday's statement by Eric Holder, who made his decision to have the 9/11 conspirators tried in military tribunals instead of civilian courts only because Congress tied his hands.

Her criticism is not regarding the military tribunals, which she supports; instead, she calls the attorney general out for being a hypocrite in saying concern for the 9/11 families was his first priority in his decision: "That is a crock. It is a disgrace for him to say it. That Justice Department and this attorney general has ignored us, has tolerated us,  has pushed us aside, has not kept us informed."
