Boy, I'll say. I knew this festering boil would have to pop sooner or later but I was thinking a lot sooner rather than as long as it has taken.
Holder & Co. could have come clean on this quite a while ago and it could have blown over for them by now. Instead they stick to the stonewalling and endless B.S. which shows they've got a lot o hide and a lot to lose.

Now they are going to have to suffer the worst of the drama playing out in the thick of Soetoro's reelection drive.
So be it, serves 'em right.

Caution, everyone.  Getting rid of Holder would be a nice afternoon's work, but the real enemy is the crook infesting 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

I don't want to focus on the AG to the point where, upon his departure, the media can consider it "closure" and demand everyone "move on".

You are right it would be a start not a finish.  Let see it was Halderman, Erlichman, Mitchell, and, Dean; and, of course Spiro Agnew.

Problem is, like Rangel prior to the midterms, the Dems and their dutiful sycophants in the MSM will 1--keep it as low key as possible, 2--bury it as quickly as possible.  OTOH, were this Gonzales or Ashcroft, this would already have been in every outlet and the front page of the NYT above the fold for weeks, with the DUmmies calling for "Chimpeachment", frog marching, etc.

It's currently in the Dems best interest for this to go away as quickly and as quietly as possible.  Issa should hold off on this until well into primary season.  Gather evidence, get statements, give Holder enough rope with which to hang himself, and then around convention time, snap.

Yea, White House and DOJ are taking it well.

That was stunning audio from the reporter.  The White House and DOJ yelling and screaming at a reporter.  It is a MUST listen.  I loved the part when the reporter said the other shoe is about to drop.  I so hope it further implicates Valerie Jarrett.  She is worse than pond scum.

She's dangerous.  American Spectator did a huge article on her.  Communists have infested the White House.  I can't believe this happened.  She's a Marxist, through and through, and she's the most influential person to the POTUS. 

I agree with NHSparky.  Issa, take your time, be nice and thorough.  Deliberate, ponder, milk it.

Mr. Holder has lied and is continuing to do so.  He needs to be held accountable for that and for this ridiculous gunrunning operation as well, and he needs to be fired.

I still strongly dislike this Attorney General for calling America a nation of cowards when it comes to race relations.  Hypocrite why does he think he has his current job except for his race.

That is the ONLY reason he has his current job.

No, no, no.  He does not need to be fired , nor does he need to resign.





















His ass needs to be thoroughly investigated for the misuse and abuse of the powers of his office.

I wonder how White House is feeling about this these days? Happy as they have been in the past?

Off topic, but speaking of being happy, I'm sure everyone saw President Asshat in an interview with Snuffleupuguss, saying about Solyndra, basically, "shit happens."   My jaw dropped and then I blew a gasket.   :argh:

This just keeps getting uglier and uglier, or yummier and yummier depending on how you look at it.

“We’re talking about consequences of criminal activity — where we actually allowed guns to walk into the hands of criminals — where our livelihoods are at risk,” Gosar said in a phone interview. “When you facilitate that and a murder or a felony occurs, you’re called an accessory. That means that there’s criminal activity.”

I scoured the DUmp to see if they had anything to say.  Only one thread, w/ 3 replies, basically saying, "this is to tie up Holder while voter fraud preparations are made."    ::)

I saw Daryl Issa on FNC saying that a special counsel is the wrong way to go.  The administration would be able to stonewall the whole thing until well past the 2012 elections.  He said this is something that people need to know before they vote .

What was Issa's solution regarding getting it out to the people? Other than people like us, that is.
