The Congressional Black Caucus is planning to stage a walkout during tomorrow's House vote to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt over the Fast and Furious gun-walking scandal, according to a letter that is being circulated among Democratic members of Congress.
“We adamantly oppose this partisan attack and refuse to participate in any vote that would tarnish the image of Congress or of an attorney general who has done nothing but work tirelessly to protect the rights of the American people," the Black Caucus members wrote in the letter, which was obtained by several news outlets. “We cannot and will not participate in a vote to hold the Attorney General in contempt."
The letter, which was sent to the Hispanic, Asian, and Progressive Caucuses, calls on members to walk off the House floor during tomorrow's vote, and join the Black Caucus for a press conference on the steps of the Capitol Building during the roll call.
The House Rules Committee voted along party lines Wednesday to send the contempt measure to the House floor, designating two hours and 20 minutes for debate Thursday, according to The Hill.

Looks like everybody but whitey got a “caucus”...
Ironic... the “caucASIANS” have no “caucUS”
What does that have to do with Holder?!?!?
It’s a shame that their jobs are all secured because they all represent gerrymandered districts in which their constituents are predominantly black who cheer on anything that appears to be “stickin it to the man”. Morals and personal responsibility are out the window.
I wouldn’t expect the Congressional Black Communists to act anyway other than UnAmerican.
Racists.
I suggest that they walk out and just keep on walking. Get the hell out of Washington and go back to their lazy ass districts where they can live off the government dole like their constituents.
No, it's buck dancing.

The poor useful idiots don’t even realize that the communists are just using the race issue to further advance the agenda,
and they will be dropped at the first opportunity when they become useless.

Good, now tell these petulant children that when they are through throwing their tantrum they are to go to bed without supper.
When you coddle spoiled brats, you only encourage bad behavior.

Would it possible to sechedule a quick vote on something important right before and right after the Holder vote?
