Exactly. How about a special prosecutor for the whole F & F gunwalker thing? Including who in the WH knew and/or was directing/authorizing criminal activities.

This expands it beyond the House/Senate investigations. Regardless how the administration plays it, the request is there and political capital can be made either way. Also, the MSM has somewhat expanded their coverage. It’s not going away, that’s for sure, and this helps.

A “Special Councel”?
Is that anything like a Special Prosecutor? If so - then Bring It On!
We need a 2012 version of Ken Starr. Yes we do.

A crack in the dam is beginning to now trickle water. Expect the shifting of the mass structure to yield other cracks and leaks.
The Obama Regime is at the cusp of having their mass corruption and crimes against America exposed. And he’ll be taking the dems right down with him.
To: MestaMachine
Who gets to pick the special counsel, and is that the same thing as a special prosecutor?

Remember that White House Insider series by Ulsterman? In it, the WHI said they were going to go after Holder to try to take him down because he’s the firewall keeping Obama safe.
Interesting how things are being leaked that lead to Holder.
(BTW, do not go to newsflavor.com. I got the FakeAlert trojan from there yesterday and it was a bear to clean.)

I don’t like special prosecutors. Congress should just do its job and impeach him. They can have it done within two months.
Asking for a special prosecutor is the coward’s way out.

To: sunmars
the Justice Department said Holder was confused by the questionI don't recall works a lot better than I'm confused. Lessons from Bill and Hill.
To: simplesimon
“And what happens should Ovomit deny this request for special council ?” -SS
That right there is the key question. My guess is that there is ‘zero’ chance Obama will allow an independent investigation, forcing a stand-off.
Will Issa take it to impeachment? (are there other remedies?)

In before the Ken Starr posts.
Seriously... maybe I’m getting old, but I remember when we thought we had Clinton — until the deliberately inept and sex-fueled “investigation” by Ken Starr.
The media mercilessly vilified Starr until he gave Dims exactly what they needed, and the Great Clinton was even greater for defeating the evil Republicans.
Hussein’s worshippers say “YES YOU CAN” when he pines for going above the law. Big Media loves him and will play this against Republicans until Michelle comes home.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith, R-Texas, is sending a letter to President Obama arguing that Holder cannot investigate himself and will request a probe by a special counsel. Obama and Holder are partners in crime, wonder what the next step is when Obama refuses.

Holder will resign his office and then Obama will pick him as Special Counsel.

Are they going to say this was a rogue matter, outside of their oversight? If it is a rogue, not only should the rogue be fired but also the person who hired the rogue. What are the internal policies? Who is responsible for compliance?
