"Holder—described by associates as President Obama’s “heat shield” on race and civil rights—sprung it on the president over the Labor Day holidays."

Stopped reading after the improper tense - these people pontificate on all our - i.e. Americans - shortcomings, sins and our intrinsic evils - yet they can't even parse an irregular verb in the English language.

I hope Holder is put forth as a nominee for the Supreme Court. If there's anyone on the Senate Judiciary Committee with any balls, he'd have to answer some hard questions - questions he has dodged heretofore.



America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Yeah, you’re right. It doesn’t.
It’s a lot like a blowhard blowing about how he’s got the goods on so-and-so and if round-up/buy his book, he’s going to blow the lid off and what’s more ....
And then it always turns into some hack coughing-up a piece of liver into the revival preacher’s hankie, and then everyone walks away a little PO’d at gettin’ took again.

worst attorney general in US history.

Jimmy Carter approves since the worst president in US history appointed him. Jimmy is loving life about now.

Holder is leaving because he’s worried about his health?
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Maybe the BENGHAZI Committee is making him sick.

Wow. I couldn't finish the article. It's just a White House press release, dressed up as "a White House source told me," as if getting their lame litany of excuses is some kind of inside scoop.

Reading between the lines, Holder has become a huge political liability in an already-disastrous year. There are only two reasons why anybody leaves in the middle of an administration—either you can't wait to escape from them, or they can't wait to get rid of you.

Thankfully, God doesn’t see everything as black and white as you do.

Falling short and despicable are very different things.

I bet Satan is salivating at the thought of welcoming her to Hell! This woman is every bit the word despicable!

Justice Scalia has a high opinion of Justice Ginsburg as a person, if not as a jurist.

What could Romney have possibly done that could be even remotely worse than what Obama has pulled off??

Well, I have a very low opinion of her as both a jurist and a human being.

“if any gop-e sinator were to vote for holder for scotus an immediate recall vote against that sinator should be held.”

Only three Republicans voted against Ginsburg, even though she had an extremely liberal record as a judge, had been chief legal counsel for the ACLU, and refused to answer many questions at her confirmation hearings. Interesting the Ginsburg nomination came after the brutal Bork and Thomas confirmation hearings where the Democrats gleefully used every scorched earth tactic to keep a conservative off the court. The Republicans let Ginsburg fly through the confirmation process.

I suspect Obama would love to nominate Holder just to see the RINO’s squirm and eventually cave.
