President Obama is accusing Congress of playing politics with law enforcement and national security by holding hostage attorney general nominee Loretta Lynch in exchange for leverage on legislation.
Mr. Obama blasted Republicans for preventing the female federal prosecutor from New York from succeeding Attorney General Eric Holder during his weekly address to the country to Sunday.
But lawmakers have delayed the nomination of Ms. Lynch by more than 130 days over concerns surrounding Mr. Obama’s executive action on immigration, which would provide temporary legal status to millions of illegal immigrants and reprieve from deportation. Now Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Kentucky Republican, wants to waylay that nomination over a bill known as the Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act. The bill contains language that would prohibit the use of restitution funds for abortions.
Mr. Obama tapped Ms. Lynch to replace Mr. Holder in November and has this month become more vocal about the roadblocks that Republicans have set up for his nominee. Republicans have the majority in both the House and the Senate.

No Holder and No Lynch would be in the best interest of America not the deballed America that Obozo, Holder and Lynch want.
So true, she’ll back 0bama all the way in making all illegal invaders here now legal instead of the proposed 4 or 5 million.
Gaslighter SITREP
Why?
It’s not the law this obammyite is interested, it is obammy’s agenda.
Yep, national security is at the very bottom of Bambam’s “to do” list.
Does he mean “endangering national security” like helping Iran get a nuclear weapon type of endangering national security?
Why is this endangering National Security? Surely Eric Holder is doing a great job! And very graciously continuing to do it, while congress looks over his proposed successor.
Darn....Where’s my violin.....
Just can’t screw America enough without that one more Marxist, huh?
Eat it Obozo.
jOkeass always attacks strawmen, but, will not do anything to fight real problems.
Obama endangers national security to the point of no return just by being president.
This perverted parasite is America’s Enemy Number ONE!
I hadn’t heard that. It’s a pity we don’t have someone of Cruz’s caliber to replace McConnell.
Only if they approve her. She is a liability to America.
Amen...RINO McConnell just blew it off when Cruz brought it up.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Liberals are whiny bitches.
Screw him and the camel he rode in on.
Dear Barry,
YOU, dear leader, endanger our national security every single day when you refuse to deal with the reality of ISLAM (btw, it is NOT the ROP), ISIS, and IRAN; and when you encourage and welcome multitudes of ILLEGAL ALIENS to enter our country through OPEN borders; and when you continue to dismantle our defense systems and military, and ignore the laws of the Constitution. Did you know, sir, that you are considered by millions of us to be a TRAITOR? As long as you aid and abet the enemies of our country, YOU ARE A THREAT TO OUR NATIONAL SECURITY. Your FAILURES will be your legacy. Sleep well.
Sincerely, Fivecats
You nearly outdid yourself with that one. Good job!
