AG Eric Holder Credits Bush For Terrorist Plot Discovery

Even Obama's attorney general credits the Bush Administration counterterrorism policies for discovering a plot in New York:

Attorney General Eric Holder credited counterterrorism tactics put in place in recent years for the federal arrests in Denver and New York that investigators say pre-empted a bombing plot by an alleged al Qaeda operative.

Mr. Holder said Tuesday during a briefing with reporters that the arrest of Najibullah Zazi, a 24-year-old Colorado airport-shuttle driver, and two others disrupted "one of the most serious terrorist threats to our country since Sept. 11, 2001."

No, he doesn't credit President Bush by name, but it is very clear now (even to liberals like Holder) that Bush and Cheney were absolutely right on national security.
