Eric Holder blew off the Tuesday morning deadline to turn over documents. Cite him for contempt and demand his resignation.

Jointly agreed to timeline-—

7/31—DOJ to release “known” documents
9/31—Joint Meeting to discuss internal findings-No public disclosure agreed to by both parties
11/31—Oopps Nevermind-Issa moves on to something else of paramount concern

DOJ has requested that Rep. Elijah Cummings and Sen. Patrick Leahy also be permitted to attend.*********

What on earth can Cummings and Leahy provide other than running interference for Holder?

There are only two outcomes to this meeting:

1) The Contempt of Congress vote will proceed tomorrow.

or

2) Issa will have some HEAVY explaining to do.

In any case, we will know a LOT more about F&F by this time tomorrow.

Congress, under both Democratic and Republican leadership, has never recognized internal agency discussions as privileged and protected.

LOL!

That was before "The Won" (heading the most transparent administration in history) and his lapdog Holder arrived on the scene.

Eric Holder is not going to turn over a damn thing or he would have done so by now. He can’t afford to turn over the documents because he knew about Fast & Furious, period.

In the Nixon era, this was called stonewalling.

Holder is about one disclosure away from impeachment.

Doesn’t look like Issa’s backing down on this at all.

It sounds to me that the DOJ is being quite forthright: "House has narrowed its request to accommodate DOJ’s concerns about material gathered that could affect prosecutions"

You just have to consider WHOSE prosecutions would be affected by the disclosure of these documents.

Whitewash, stall, delay, stonewall, obstruct, appease, blame, defer, deflect, cover-up, smear, etc.. It’s time for Issa to stop being played. We demand it!

Issa needs to wear a wire so conversations can be recorded.

Is it possible that the two gentlemen asked to be present are there as witness so the “guilty party” does NOT come back on Holder?...Sort of like making certain you have a water-hose and shovel handy before you throw gasoline on a fire.

Holder must be held in contempt. Does anyone think this piece of garbage will turn anything over that would implicate him or King Obama? Then I have a bridge I’d like to sell.

As mentioned in other threads today, look at the story BEHIND the story, and that story is the fact that Eric WithHolder is headed to Europe along with Janet Incompetentano for some meeting with their ‘European security counterparts’, hope Holder has his insurance premiums paid up, he could well be looking at a Ron Brown moment in his immediate future.

Of course, all Janet would have to do is slip, fall and roll over on the poor sonuvabitch, and that would silence him right there.
