Neil Lewis of the NYT praises the work of Noel Hillman and the
Department of Justice's Office of Public Integrity for the work they've
done on the Jack Abramoff case.  Former Deputy Attorney General,
Eric Holder, is quoted as saying,

“Traditionally the people who work in
Public Integrity are among the best career lawyers in government, and they are as nonpartisan a group as you can get. When
I interacted with them as the deputy attorney general, I never knew if
anyone was a Democrat or a Republican. It didn't matter.”

High praise for federal workers, indeed.
