Sen. Charles E. Grassley and conservative organizations, such as Keep America Safe are accusing nine Department of Justice attorneys of being "terrorist sympathizers." The Washington Post’s Carrie Johnson reports that conservatives opposed to the administration’s efforts to shutter Guantanamo Bay "have trained their fire on an unusual target: political appointees in the Obama Justice Department who represented detainees earlier in their careers." Johnson notes that Grassley has been badgering the DOJ "for months" about releasing the names of those attorneys. Keep American Safe, a group The Post describes as being affiliated with Vice President Dick Cheney’s daughter, Liz Cheney has piled on with an over-the-top YouTube video called "DOJ: Department of Jihad?"

The video, The Post reports, has now garnered criticism from both Democrats and Republicans. The newspaper cites as an example George Washington University law school professor Orin Kerr’s blog post for the Volokh Conspiracy that said the video was akin to something "former Senator Joseph McCarthy would have used … if he were alive today." Kerr, winner of a prestigious Federalist Society award and a former prosecutor in the DOJ’s Criminal Division, as part of the Attorney General’s Honor Program, is hardly a staunch backer of much of the administration’s policy on terrorism. A former Bush White House attorney Reginald Brown scored the video as being "beyond a cheap shot to suggest that a lawyer is an al-Qaeda sympathizer because he advocates a detainee’s position in the Supreme Court."

For more on what he describes "a smearing of Justice Department lawyers," see Adam Serwer’s recent article for The American Prospect.
