What a bunch of lieing, arrogant, criminally minded people make up the Obama administration, and particularly Eric Holder. You can see it in his face that he knows excatly what he is doing and almost finds it humorous that he is in a position where he can still, "get it over on the man."

I pray the full truth comes out and that he and his boss are sent to the Grey Rock Hotel and that the self-serving smirk is wiped from his face as he is held accountable for the death and misery he has caused.

MURDERGATE: ERIC HOLDER AND FAST AND FURIOUS

[Boogieman]

“According to Grassley, Melson wrote that he had reviewed the wiretap applications — the same documents Cummings and Holder claim do not show senior DOJ officials knew of or approved gunwalking tactics in Fast and Furious.”

Here’s a key point that needs to be brought up. Just the fact that they were applying for wiretaps in this investigation shows that the upper levels of the DOJ were informed of the investigation:

“At the federal level, the application must be approved by the Attorney General, Deputy Attorney General, Associate Attorney General, any Assistant Attorney General, any acting Assistant Attorney General, or any Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Criminal Division designated by the Attorney General.”

Get it? Federal wiretaps all go through the DOJ Criminal Division, and can only be approved by Holder’s appointees in that division.

“In addition to leading the Fast and Furious OCDETF task force, the U.S. Attorney’s Office was instrumental in preparing the wiretap applications that were submitted to the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. Federal prosecutors in Arizona filed at least six of these applications, each containing immense detail about operational tactics and specific information about straw purchasers, in federal court after Department headquarters authorized them.”

Those wiretap applications detailed the operation and were approved by DOJ headquarters! That’s a smoking gun right there.

Folks can argue the point if they want to, but, I still say this could be Obama’s, and Holder’s, Watergate. This makes Watergate look like play time at kindergarten. No one died in Watergate.

[hoosiermama]

So...It’s a matter of releasing the documents that the committee already has or knows the content. Again Holder is between a BaROCK and congress......

THE BIG QUESTION IS: Will the Pubbies, in the House of Represetatives, have the tenacity, and the 'nads, to ride this horse to the finish line?

[pistolpackinpapa]

Has anyone bothered to bring up the fact, to all the Mexicans in America (legally and illegally) that their buddies, Holder and Obama, whom they voted for and who claims to love the Mexican people so much, sent arms to Mexico that killed 300 innocent Mexican people?

[DIRTYSECRET]

Eric Holder will not spend a day in jail. It would be better to go after the agents who took part and give immunity to those that had a problem with it. Gun shop owners? There was $$$ in it for them but most of them know that the RATS want to put them out of business. When the Lieutenants pay the price(think Whitewater) for their bosses actions they will think twice before blindly following as yes men.

Nixon’s attorney general, John Mitchell, served 19 months in prison...

Without the MSM reporting on it Night after night after night like Wategate it ain't gonna happen

Nothing will come of this. The election is in November. If Zero is ousted, this will all get swept under the rug and the main characters will be changed out.

If Zero IS re-elected, the balance of power in Congress will likely shift as well. Doubtful that current investigations will survive a change in committee make up.

As an aside, is anyone else annoyed at all the double letters in the word "committee"?

[Roccus]

THE BIG QUESTION IS: Will the Pubbies, in the House of Represetatives, have the tenacity, and the 'nads, to ride this horse to the finish line?

NO!

The House vote may or may not come on Thursday to hold Holder in contempt. But either way, Boner will strike a deal and this whole thing will go down the memory hole along with Craig Livingstone, the Foster "suicide", Able Danger, ChiCom campaign contributions.....the list goes ever on.

[GOPJ]

Top cop-out... that’s good.

[Dead Corpse]

It SHOULD be Zero's "Watergate". As noted, the severity is an order of magnitude higher in Zero's crimes than anything Nixon contemplated. Nixon also wasn't trying to deliberately subvert our Bill of Rights either.

Enforcement of such falls down into the by now classic dichotomy of "conservative" vs "socialist". I refuse to call them "liberals" any more as it disparagingly twists the "liber-" root to mean something it was never meant for.

Anything, no matter how criminal or insane, that furthers the socialists goals is good. Anything that thwarts these goals is bad and must be destroyed at any cost. This is their template.

With that last paragraph in mind, watch your local news some time. It's downright chilling.

[Thommas]

..senior DOJ officials knew about and approved the gunwalking tactic in Fast and Furious. This is the opposite of what Attorney General Eric Holder and House oversight committee ranking Democratic member Rep. Elijah Cummings have claimed.

I guess that makes them LIARS, don't it? Every time I watch that pudge-faced ninny, Elijah Cummings spout off about the forthrightness and innocence of Eric Holder, I can visualize their roasting buttocks in the 3rd level of Hell; that special playground for recalcitrant LIARS.

[MestaMachine]

It is my fervent hope that holder and obama have dug themselves a hole so deep they never see daylight again!

"Gun control under the radar."

The trail is getting hotter...and closer...

[verga]

THE BIG QUESTION IS: Will the Pubbies, in the House of Represetatives, have the tenacity, and the 'nads, to ride this horse to the finish line?

In a Word: Nope.

In two: No way.

In three: Aint gonna happen.

In Four: Not on a bet.
