"Trayvon" prevents Speaker Boehner filing contempt of congress charge against Eric Holder
Coach is Right ^ | 5/26/2012 | Doug Book

Posted on 05/26/2012 10:01:21 AM PDT by Oldpuppymax

According to Congressman Darrell Issa, there are some 80,000 pages of information now in the possession of the D.O.J. Inspector General as she continues to feign an official investigation into the Fast and Furious related activities of her longtime friend Eric Holder.

But Issa’s House Government Affairs Committee has received only about 6,000 related pages from the DOJ, many redacted to the point of irrelevance and some little more than reprints of articles published long ago by members the mainstream media.

Issa has filed numerous subpoenas demanding the Attorney General turn over those documents the Committee knows to have been withheld. But Holder has refused to produce them, telling the Committee quite bluntly they will get nothing dated after February 4th of 2011. As result of the Attorney General’s arrogant refusal, Issa has threatened Holder with Contempt of Congress proceedings.

For some time it has been suggested that House Speaker John Boehner and fellow Republican leaders have quietly “discouraged” the Contempt of Congress filing against...

Just goes to show.....they’re all in it together. Evan Bayh admitted on the Lutz special that you are ordered to go with the program or you’ll be punished by not being on the commmittees that will help your constituents or your bills not coming up for a vote. So, the Tea Party candidates have been told to shut the hell up. And they have.

What’s needed is a third party to push Boner (pronounced “bay-ner” by Boner) out.

Of course, it’s “bay-ner” since he wouldn’t know what the other one was.

There is no longer a Grand Old Party. It died and went straight to hell and is doing everything it can to drag us down with it.

If there is any evidence of culpability in the insane gambit to attack American gun rights, Holder needs to be impeached. Any Legislator who lets the ability of demagogues (such as Obama, Jesse Jackson & Al Sharpton) to stir up race riots over make-believe wrongs, intimidate them from their duty, should simply resign--for the safety of all of us--themselves included. If law & order is allowed to break down in America, the nervous Nellies will be no safer than any of the rest of us.

The Germans lost their freedom because of surrendering law & order to mobs in the late 1920s & early 1930s. That is not the way to govern.

According to Roll Call, “a GOP aide…warned against a racial backlash if Republicans are seen as unfairly targeting the first black attorney general, who is serving the first black president. ‘Especially after Trayvon,’ the aide said,

Actually, this and the commentary after this is just speculation.

There is not a direct quote from anyone other than "a GOP aide" that is speculating.

I would stick with Boner is incompetent.

Boehner is the definition of no-win. Among the leadership who believe, as Rush says, that Republicans will lose to Obama, we have Boehner who wishes only to retain personal power and security, and to gain, at best, perhaps a majority in the senate.

Boehner and Coburn types despise the Newt Gingrich style, you know, where as a minority you don’t act like it, but take it to the liberals with the odds stacked against you, because you know how to work, you win.

These guys are not big picture, but self promoters. Coburn intends to retire wealthy, feigning the role of the messiah on spending, but content to stay in the minority, so long as his damn book sells and that Newt was rejected.

These guys had no intention of being forced to go to work. To show up and to have to actually deliver under the taskmaster, Newt, was a bridge too far, when they could have Romney. After all, how hard is taxation? Simple.

Holder needs to be tried in Mexico, where he enabled the most murders.

Is the GOP actually worried about the African-American vote? Who cares? The GOP African-Americans know evil from good and know both are colored blind.

Has to be something else.

Sigh...I can't figure out who I am the most disgusted with..Holder or Boehner.

Holder is only following his natural instincts...racism and socialism...he is one whose condition of being black trumps everything...he will give up his very freedom in order to further and protect being black.

..I had hoped that Boehner's instincts would be toward freedom and justice, but alas, it seems that cowardice is also one of his instincts.

Just damn!

So why don't they band together and push the corrupt bastard out? Can't they get together with the left-wing reporter who insists Boner is boning some lobbyist named Lisbeth Lyons? Or the others?

John Boner is a skidmark on the under wear of America.

If Boehner thinks Obama’s 2008 supporters will go for the GOP in 2012, he’s too bloody stupid to be in the House let alone Speaker.

And as for preventing race riots, if it’s not over Trayvon. it’ll just be something else.

If they’re coming — and with Obama, Sharpton, Jackson and all the rest doing all they can to start them, they are — let’s get it on now.

When was the last time that we had a real Republican Party before or after Ronald Reagan. It seems that real presidents are pretty rare.
