House committee schedules contempt vote against Holder

Interesting snippet here:
Quote
However, Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., says the Justice Department has refused to turn over tens of thousands of pages of documents. Those include materials created after Feb. 4, 2011, when the Justice Department wrote a letter to Congress saying no gunwalking had occurred. The Justice Department later retracted the denial.

"The Obama Administration has not asserted Executive Privilege or any other valid privilege over these materials and it is unacceptable that the Department of Justice refuses to produce them. These documents pertain to Operation Fast and Furious, the claims of whistleblowers, and why it took the Department nearly a year to retract false denials of reckless tactics," Issa wrote in an announcement of the vote to be released shortly. It will reveal the vote is scheduled for Wednesday, June 20.

I'm surprised I'm the first to post this.
The interesting thing about the bolded part of the text, is a truism of the Obama administration. They don't manipulate the law like Clinton...they just ignore what they don't like. And expect us to let it slide.

The only problem is the MSM is barely covering the stories or not even mentioning them.

After the vote, it will be a big story. Barry might even throw his racist buddy under the bus. A contrived resignation would be the order of the day.

Hi,

I think one point is being overlooked.  This is really putting Obama in a precarious political position.  The only way he can legally prevent the documents from being turned over is to declare executive priviledge.  If he does that; particularly so close to an election, it make for one heck of a political ad.

If he gets caught between a rock and hard place, then the obvious choice is for Holder to resign and go into hiding.

Then Obama quietly tries to offer a presidential pardon citing the fact our country is much too polarized and for the good of the country he issued a pardon.

A certain segment of the population regales in his courageous leadership of course and those who disagree are racists and revolutionaries.

Then in about five years some guy quits the government and writes a tell all book and makes a lot of money.

Regards,

It's amazing that lib/dem/socialists get to "fix" problems they create. In this case, polarization.

Never noticed it before but Holder got those crazy bat shit eyes just like Charles Manson

You would have that look also with a boss like Obama.    He has the look of a man asked the question, " If your house were on fire, you have 2 kids, what one would you try to save " ?

Naturally with Obama everyone is trying to save their jobs, follow his orders and not go to prison for doing so.
It must be one hell of a ride for those working for Obama that find they must choose against resigning their job and being loyal to the President who they do not trust or respect.

How much in fact did Holder know, was he kept out of the loop or was ordered to sanction things he knew nothing about or did not want to put in action ?    Is this the look of a scape goat for Obamas mess ups or those trying to advance their own carear ?

I tell yeah that photo speaks a 1000 words, there is no smirking man with delusions of grandeur, this is a man totally confused, looking like he believes he has been betrayed.

I wait for the Man to defend himself, if he can, and survive Obamas net work.

Holder's feet ar to the firethermite, ergo, so are Oblahmas. Oblahma's narcisistic self doesn't like to be held accountable for anything. Doesn't like when he's overshadowed. Doesn't like when people literally or proverbially talk over him. That means that Holder is in a whole shitload of trouble. And that's AFTER he gets out from between the rock, and the hard place.

We wish.  I firmly believe Romney will win & we will win the Senate & keep the House. The Republican establishment will then declare that we need to "move on" & Holder will return to his law firm & lucerative speaking fees.

For sale on ebay....

Very rare, one of a kind, dark president. Used once and only slightly then. Some weather damage from being on the golf course so much and moderately worn around the edges from being packed to go on so many vacations. Will talk if you pull its string or insert a coin in the slot. Needs plug for bottom of foot or it'll spread the wealth around a bit. Environmentally friendly and runs on green energy only...your money. Cash only, buyer pays all packing and shipping cost. No guarantees, warranties expressed or implied. This sell is a "as is, where is" sell and final, no refunds, no returns. Can ship late January 2013.

Will cut price/bid in half if you take the ugly accompaning female VOODOO doll off my hands. It seems no one wants her but I HOPE & CHANGE that soon.
