There’s a generally pretty strained line of questioning right now between Rep. Spencer Bachus and Attorney General Holder. But one thing Bachus has zoomed in on is that the Justice Department apparently doesn’t have a formal process of committing a recusal decision to writing. To be clear, I don’t think there’s any reasonable question whether Holder in fact recused himself. But a recusal in a significant enough thing that I would think you’d always want to formally put something on paper.
