I was STUNNED by his answer, and by Kirk asking the questions. WOW!!! I watched it live and was shocked it was not being covered.

[TexasCajun]

The fact that Holder refused to say 'no' was the same as taking the 5th in my opinion.

Very shocking.

[dirtboy]

Holder assured Kirk that “there is no intention to do anything of that nature — that is, to spy on Members of Congress or to spy on the Supreme Court.”

In other words, they are doing just that.

[cripplecreek]

“With all due respect, Senator, I don’t think this is an appropriate setting for me to discuss [this issue],”

Wow.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Of course they are - and clearly, they have the goods on Boehner, McCain, Graham, and their ilk.

[crosslink]

that is, to spy on Members of Congress or to spy on the “Supreme Court.”

Why did he add the court? Roberts explained?

[Timber Rattler]

Weasel words from Holder. The short answer is clearly YES, or else why would he parse?

J. Eric Holder

Did a Senator or House Rep. say there was a ‘bug’ in the cloakroom? I don’t think he was kidding. You can bet team 0bama was spying on John Roberts like crazy leading up to his 0bamacare decision. Probably got some incriminating bathhouse photos.

Barrock, help, I need executive privelige again, fast.

[kabar]

The answer was was meant to intimidate and to plant fear. Holder was saying that you, Congress and SCOTUS, are being watched and any information we have on you can be used any way we want.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

The palace coup is upon is complete an nobody noticed.

[txmissy]

We are screwed.

[Cheerio]

We all know very well the Obozo and Holder ARE SPYING on both Congress and SCOTUS. We do not need proof - the very proof is in the Admin’s pattern of unaccountable behavior over the past 5 years, which has accelerated since the 2nd term commenced.

[The Cajun]

Holder assured Kirk that “there is no intention to do anything of that nature

He should have added *But if it happens, it happens*.

Carefully chosen weasel words and note, he used the word "is" and not was.

Interesting the choice of "is".

[Para-Ord.45]

Depends on what the definition os “spy” is now isn`t it?

There can be no law when the extreme totalitarian left redefine words to suit their ends and means at any particular time and place.

Holder isn`t spying, he may be surveilling , or monitoring, or recording called numbers, but he isn`t a “spy” .

Until the dumb ass GOP learn the language of the left they will always not ask the specific correct questions and get specific answers .

[SE Mom]

This is truly shocking. But not surprising. He didn’t say No ..Never.

No wonder he’s not ready to leave. .

[cableguymn]

I'm not.

[newfreep]

Drudge has this headline photo. Is that a homo/sodomy marriage ring on his right hand?

[Lancey Howard]

Mark Kirk? He’s a rat mole... What would he be doing squeezing Holder?
Whew, is my spidey sense ever tingling.
I smell a diversion wrapped in a spin cycle and sprinkled with lies coming out of this hearing.

[rawhide]

Holder saying ‘there was no intention’ indicates to me it has happened and may be continuing to happen. If it has not, then Holder easily could have said so.
