Now maybe we can address racial issues fairly without an active racist interloper pulling race out the the clear blue and injecting it into EVERY issue.

But me thinks his replacement probably wont be much better.

Even with all the help of the mainstream media the little communists couldn’t hold the senate. America continues to wake up hopefully.

If the republicans take the Senate, it’s my belief
Hillary will NOT run. Even if she was to win, she
would be starting as a lame duck for two years with
slim chances of seeing a democrat majority.

But who knows, she just might need the campaign graft
bad enough.

How long does it take to type up a Presidential pardon?

Presidential pardons should be eliminated.

The criminal Holder deserves to spend his retirement in a federal prison.

I say Thank You to Judicial Watch whose lawsuits & FOIA request are about to nail Eric Holder on many fronts.

Contempt of congress will soon be upheld as well.

Check out this video:

Today Nancy Pelosi informed a distraught Congressional Black Caucus that Holder is resigning.

Hilarious!!!

ROFL! That is hilarious, I watched it a few minutes ago.

Sounded like Nan and a few others were ready to cry.

If you didn’t see the piece I posted earlier on the Fast and Furious court ruling it’s worth the read.

This is the Administration story on why he is leaving.

The only reason why Holder is stepping down is probably to save you know who.

That means someone has some VERY DAMING evidence. A control freak just does not step down unless it’s something that could bring down the Administration. My bet is that it has something to do with Fast and Furious.

A few months we’re probably going to find out something that should have put him behind bars.

Despite the nuked appointment filibuster, there still needs to be some time on the schedule to hold a cursory debate and a vote. So exercising the filibuster - and I mean a real hold the floor and talk talk talk one - on the legislation would have the effect of running down the clock on any appointments.

And to add, there’ll definitely be one (LA) and possibly a second (GA) senate runoff. Dems are going to be extremely reluctant to sacrifice those seats for an AG nominee, given the math for them to recapture the Senate in 2016. Look at how a number of Obama appointees have been defeated recently on simple majority votes.

Holder would get impeached if he was still around next year. better for the white house to get someone else in there now.

Yes, JW has been doing great work. I’m anxious to see if judge Sullivan will grant JW partial discovery in the Benghazi suit, that could be really big if he does.
