Years as an avid, hands-on “facilitator” for corrupt Democrat presidents have taught Attorney General Eric Holder that contempt and cynicism are the best weapons against annoying Republicans in search of facts. In yesterday’s eagerly anticipated meeting with Darrell Issa, Holder did exactly what anyone familiar with the arrogant racketeer might expect. He ignored vows he made to the Republican Congressman about bringing the matter of Fast and Furious to “an amicable resolution” by demanding today’s scheduled House “contempt of Congress” vote be cancelled before any of his Department’s subpoenaed Fast and Furious documents would be handed over to the Issa Committee.
“The [Justice] Department is prepared to compromise with the Committee in order to answer the questions set forth,” promised the Attorney General just 5 days earlier. But Holder’s concept of compromise is that of any self-serving, leftist chiseler, that being to swindle the mark.
It took just twenty minutes in a secluded, Capitol Building office for Darrell Issa to realize he was being played for a sucker. In an interview with FOX News immediately after the pointless encounter with the Attorney General, Issa told reporters the Attorney General not only demanded the contempt vote be cancelled but that the Fast and Furious investigation itself be ended. Only under these conditions, said Holder, would he then provide the Issa Committee with a “briefing” as to the innocence of the Department of Justice, followed by a selective release of documents supporting that claim! Audacity, disdain, and insolence: truly the hallmarks of the radical left.
Issa must know it was never Holder’s intention to provide the information demanded by the Congressman’s House Committee. It is pointedly clear by now that doing so would have given Republicans all the proof they would need to file criminal charges against not only Holder, but half of the Obama political appointees in the Department of Justice.
The fact is that Holder is depending on the politically-petrified Speaker of the House to bail him out of 18 months of lies told to congressional committees. It’s no secret that John Boehner is concerned further Fast and Furious involvement will put Republicans on a course that will not only be vehemently criticized by the national media, but which might, according to the Speaker, eventually be “an election year distraction that could hurt Republicans at the polls.” Boehner would like nothing more than to put an end to the Fast and Furious investigation, even though Holder, a shameless criminal for the past 2 decades, would get away with having engineered the shooting deaths of 200 or more people.
It has been the courageous participation of unnamed DOJ officials leaking documents to Congress that finally convinced Boehner and other Republican leaders to lend reluctant support for today’s contempt of Congress vote. And the word is that Republicans indeed have the votes to bring a contempt charge against the Attorney General. What a disgrace if the career ending—even prosecutable—leaking of documents by DOJ employees were to be for naught thanks to a House Speaker more concerned with politics than with justice.
Wednesday will be the day during which all eyes will be on the House of Representatives.

This has to be the most corrupt administration since Nixon and it exceeds the severity x 1000. There is NO WAY our forefathers had this in mind when designing the Constitution and Executive authority…..This president is an embarrassment beyond words and I REALLY hope he is voted out in November.
This totally corrupt group of incompetents makes the Nixon administration look like choirboys.
That's the worst part I think, the incompetence. Nixon's group was just a one time, lowly botched robbery. The Oblameo group is theft after theft, lie after lie, murder after murder, fraud after fraud and they were all committed by 12 year olds it seems!
They are not a group of incompetents…they are a group of Marxists who are very adept at what they have been intentionally doing…”fundamentally transforming the United States of America” because they despise everything America was founded upon and has stood for. Nixon et al were amateurs in comparison.
Voting Obama out will not stop the destruction of America.. Has everyone forgotten he knows all of America's secrets including military secrets..He needs imprisoned without internet priviledges and his visitors monitored..Likewise Holder and maybe more of his administration…Though I think these two are the most dangerous…
Speaking of danger and Holder why does no one mention his involvment with the Oklahoma city massacre…He was part of it…
We are so alseep in America we cannot even connect the dots of fast and furious guns and Hezbollah near the Mexican border.. We will when they begin jihad in America ..
That's when us women will get involved and start running around naked…make them all have to fall on their swords!!!
Not everyone has forgotten.

THEY WELL DO NOT ONE THING .WE THE PEOPLE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING.ANY ONE WITH THE FEW OF US?
HUH?!? I, for one, have absolutely NO idea what you tried to say. You are either incompetent, drunk or fried your brain on drugs.
Whoopie!! They voted to move the contempt to the House!! I hope everyone on here will email or phone their Representatives (and, include Boehner — his email address can be googled) and tell them to vote "yes" and pass the resolution to hold Holder in contempt.
Just how many more examples of blatant hypocrisy, habitual blame-tossing, narcissistic lying, and breeches of constitutional authority perpetrated to consolidate power do we have to witness before the House does ITS duty and moves affirmatively to impeach this usurper? Well? Anyone have an answer? Anyone? Paging John Boehner…PAGING JOHN BOEHNER!

Already called Boehner to express my feeling ..we all need to bombard his office to give him the backbone not to back down.
Fire that SOB.
Counts of Treason should be brought against holder and obummer. They should be tried in Military court and have no reason to bring Congress into it, they are guilty too. Treason against the US, the Constitution and the American people. Hang them all.
Perhaps IF the present administration was enforcing our US Constitution, Bill of Rights and all Amendments, the American people, old and young would NOT HAVE TO ASK "Why is the US government supplying US guns to the enemy of the United States.?". In fact, it is the US citizens Executive Order to find out why our President and our Democrat Congress members seem to be of a completely different political party than the voted-in patriotic candidates to 'serve the American people'. Crime after crime has been performed for the past 3 1/2yrs, which are not the policy of the Democratic government of America.
Because of the government's decision to provide the guns to the enemy, two US Customs Agents have been killed by those guns. The explanation of 'sensitive information is NOT an answer' to a treasonous
act.
You CANNOT "enforce" the Constitution. You abide by it, you defend it and ensure the rights provided therein are preserved. It cannot be "enforced".There is no such thing as the "the Democratic government of America" as you incorrectly stated. We have a Republic, if we can keep it.
Why are we selling guns to the enemy? It was a botched operation, but its intent was to show how easily guns can "fall into the hands of our enemies" and thereby give the gun-grabbers the opportunity to place further restrictions on guns and infringe on our 2nd amendment rights.
cape 1960 , Our country is not a democracy with mob rule , it is a Constitutional Republic with laws that must be enforced . Only liberals use the term democracy when they know full well that term was being avoided by the Founding Fathers .
holder aint bolder-he sure got criminal status in a slam dunk moment-now tell him what he's won-jailtime in the nastiest slopbucket pit-maggot ville louisiana
The Truth About Psychology! http://wayoflife.org/index_files/category-psychol…
Did anyone seriously believe that the obama gang would do anything else??? Liars all.They have much to hide and will do Anything and Everything to continue to hide from the light of truth.
Who is the coward now Mr. Holder?
Are we men or mice?Holder must go,followed by Oblameyea and his merry gang of crooks.
To be sure, along with my cup of "TEA" this evening, I will begin to devise ways and means to assist or abet the removal of "Bone Head" Boehner from our House of Representatives. That guy is total incompetent!
Holder is the most corrupt AG we ever had he was a corrupt official when he was with Slick Willy.Obummer gave him executive power to circumvet congress so now we know Obummer is involved in the Fast and Furious scandal.All his fellow spearchuckers and some white dems in congress are accusing the republicans of a witch hunt instead of them trying to foind out who allowed Brian Terry to be killed by Holders scheme.
"Audacity, disdain, and insolence: truly the hallmarks of the radical left."
Actually, sounds more like the standard negro. Only thing left for him to do is to create a flash mob and take out those "crackers" who dare to challenge him.
Have you ever wondered how Jew hating, America hating muslims are going to take over America?
1. Terminate America's freedom of speech by replacing it with statewide and nationwide hate-crime bills.
This is already being done.
2. Wage a war of words using black leaders like Louis Farrakhan, Rev. Jesse Jackson and other visible religious personalities who promote Islam as the religion of African-Americans while insisting Christianity is for whites only. What they fail to tell African-Americans is that it was Arab Muslims who captured them and sold them as slaves. In fact, the Arabic word for black and slave is the same, ''Abed.''
3. Engage the American public in dialogues, discussions, debates in colleges, universities, public libraries, radio, TV, churches and mosques on the virtues of Islam. Proclaim how it is historically another religion like Judaism and Christianity with the same monotheistic faith.
4. Nominate Muslim sympathizers to political office to bring about favorable legislation toward Islam and support potential sympathizers by block voting. Look at Dearborn, Michigan. The Police Chief in Dearborn is a muslim & he's made it
very clear that he hates Christians. Many Senators & Congressmen/women openly support such evil.
5. Take control of as much of Hollywood, the press, TV, radio and the Internet as possible by buying the related corporations or a controlling stock. Part of Fox News is owned by a muslim. CNN openly supports muslims.
6. Yield to the fear of the imminent shut-off of the lifeblood of America – black gold. America’s economy depends on oil and much of it comes from the Middle East.
7. Yell ''foul, out-of-context, personal interpretation, hate crime, Zionist, un- American, inaccurate interpretation of the Quran'' anytime Islam is criticized or the Quran is analyzed in the public arena.
8. Encourage Muslims to penetrate the White House (and they already have), specifically with Islamists who can articulate a marvelous and peaceful picture of Islam. Acquire government positions and get membership in local school boards. Train Muslims as medical doctors to dominate the medical field, research and pharmaceutical companies. (Ever notice how numerous Muslim doctors in America are, when their countries need them more desperately than America?) Take over the computer industry. Establish Middle Eastern restaurants throughout the U.S. to connect planners of Islamization in a discreet way.
SUPREME COURT — Talk about moral, spiritual and cultural implosion. Fox and ABC are trying to argue that it's unconstitutional to ban obscenities and nudity from broadcast TV. If they win, watch the floodgates open to an even more rapid meltdown of cultural standards in the media.
