Why does Holder still have a job?

[Sgt.Murtaugh]

whatever happened with all the heat that was on him following F&F? wasn't he on the verge of being thrown in jail? It seems like all this just disappeared.

 

[Tommygunn]

Because he's Obama's friend, that's why.

 

[Bobson]

He's a personal friend of the President of the United States.

so did obama step in and put an order to seal access to all communications on the matter so as to shield holder from further investigation?

Of course it has.

Holder still has a job because he was just doing what his boss wanted him to do.

Since then, the administration and congress have had bigger fish to fry with the elections to win, "fiscal cliff" to resolve, holiday recess to enjoy, and the looming gun control fight.

The attention span of the average American is shorter than the standard news cycle. Holder has the most influential friends a person can have. No telling what he would have to do to lose his job. Would the replacement be any better?
