".....He noted, however, that the Bush administration "left us an infrastructure that I think is very good," and that national security officials are constantly striving to put the country in a safer position.

"The American people would be surprised by the depth of the threat, but also reassured to see the assets that have been deployed around the world," Holder said, adding that the United States interacts closely with its foreign partners. ......"

As an aside Mr Holder. It appears I've been "asked" to open my trunk more times than you - and I'm white.

Yes, the Bush administration left a good counter-terror infrastructure…but he might just prosecute them for it, all the same.

"....Critical Decisions on Guantanamo, Investigation Into Bush Administration Top Holder's To-Do List
....The investigation into the Bush administration's policy on the detention and interrogation of suspected terrorists, Holder said is still a real possibility -- regardless of the political fallout...."
