On the recordDecember 2, 2010
Beatrice Edwards of the Government Accountability Project criticized Cole for failing to ``detect an atmosphere of . . . laissez-faire compliance of the company.'' So he has been criticized for a big, important role he had. And I wish the President had nominated somebody like Larry Thompson, who was Department Attorney General under President Bush, and whom everybody respected and would have been confirmed like a knife through hot butter.
