Mr. Gowdy is definitely no nonsense. That was nice. The guy over Issa's shoulder must be a lawyer on Issa's staff. He seemed to be nodding in agreement with points of law being made by Issa. He probably briefed the congressman on just how to phrase things and was seeing his work come to fruition. Apparently Issa was nailing every point ... and without a teleprompter! lol

Thanks for digging up those links for me. There was a congresswoman who was a former sheriff (and a lawyer I believe) who grilled Holder in another session that I saw. She was very no nonsense too. I thought she was going to make him cry.

"There was a congresswoman who was a former sheriff (and a lawyer I believe) who grilled Holder in another session…"

That would be Sandy Adams, she is not a lawyer and points this out. Pay attention at the 1:03 mark.

Holder does what he does best, waffle and bloviate the committees precious time.
If he can answer a yes/no question with: "Yes, but one does not preclude the other, you see, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
He can then avoid half the questions.
Sandy tried to make this point in her opening, of course to no avail.

Holder was constantly disrespectful towards her, but then he's ERIC HOLDER!
I would love to have simply slapped the $hï† of of him!
