Encouraging that the GOP is not afraid of going after a Black Democrat

I want to see how they respond when Holder and or Obama play the Race Card

[Clay Moore]

You have to wonder who is keeping the lid on the little matter of this being a declaration of war by the BATFE on Mexico?

[opentalk]

He has used that. -I didn’t read the details for a long time, on many issues.

[Thank You Rush]

“”Excellent letter from Issa. A very good start.””

I agree. I read it today and thought that Issa had to be working on this over the weekend to have it ready by today since so much was dumped only on Friday night. I thought it was very good.

Did you happen (or any other freeper) to see Hannity’s Special Report over the weekend about Fast and Furious? When Sean said Holder was lying and asked Issa if he agreed, he said something which passed for diplomacy and I can’t remember his exact words. They were something about “pushing the limits on candor” and when Sean repeated those words, Issa had a big smile. I can’t say I’ve ever seen the man smile before but it was super.

I hope the rest of us have a really big smile in the not too distant future when we see Holder marched off to the hoosegow....Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.

Michelle Malkin was great on the subject too on that show. She’s not afraid to tell it like it is - Holder’s always been known as trouble and should never have gotten the AG job. We all know that but he got away with so much under Clinton, I guess he thinks he’s still going to be protected.

Can’t wait to see him GO!!!!!

[Thank You Rush]

I also read Holder’s letter to Issa and the Committee over the weekend. I had to laugh. Holder said of the many, many memos received in his office daily, most of them were only one sentence or one paragraph long - YET he didn’t and couldn’t read them all!!!! COULDN’T? Why? Does he have a reading problem?

I ask myself just what is priority to this guy? Keeping blacks from being prosecuted for black on white crime? Seeing to it AZ or AL don’t discriminate against illegals.
Making sure blacks intimidate white voters at the voting booths?

Inquiring minds want to know!!!!

CBS provided a GREAT popularizing platform, but in fact about 90% of the inglorious, early heavy-lifting on F&F et al has been by the Sipsey Street Irregulars.

AMAZING REPORTING —lots and lots of digging and drudgery.

[Salvavida]

This letter actually is as advertised: unprecedented. I have never seen an intra-government communication worded like this.

I also get the impression that Issa is two moves ahead of DOJ. Holder is in a rapidly deteriorating situation.

[Lurker]

If there were any honor left in this Administration there would be lots of people going into their offices with a pistol and a single round of ammunition.

[hinckley buzzard]

Issa has a kind of background that would indicate a lot of street savvy. In and out of trouble with the law in his youth, he nevertheless was smart and able enough to become a successful Army officer and later to make hundreds of millions of dollars in a legitimate auto security business. I think the shiney-suited Obamanoid street pimps may have met their match with this guy.

[Repeal The 17th]

“...it is clear that Grindler did one of two things.

Either, he alerted you to the name and operational details of Fast and Furious, in which case your May 3, 2011 testimony in front of Congress was false;

or, he failed to inform you of the name and the operational details of Fast and Furious, in which case Grindler engaged in gross dereliction of his duties as Acting Deputy Attorney General.

It is fair to infer from the fact that Grindler remains as your Chief of Staff that he did not engage in gross dereliction of his duties and told you about the program as far back as March of 2010...”
-
Translation: You, sir, are a liar.

[Ronin]

I worry immensely that Holder resignation, which is just a matter of days (if not hours) away, is going to be the signal for the MSM to start piling on with the refrain “OK, we you got him, now shut up and move on!”

I don’t want Holder, I want Obama! I don’t want people to say, “Well, Holder quit, so it’s all over”.

We need to make it very clear that this is NOT the end of the investigation — it’s the beginning. We are not going to stop until the slimy snake is pulled completely out of the hole into the light of day.

[Secret Agent Man]

A good ending is a long federal jail term for Holder.

Holder says he won’t prosecute “his people” but we’re going to prosecute HIM.

[Secret Agent Man]

GUNS WALKED

HOLDER LIED

AMERICANS DIED

[Cyber Liberty]

I hope Issa has someone to start his car for him...I wouldn’t put it past this bunch to crash a whole plane full of people just to get Issa.

Attorney General Holder's "Fast and Furious" Mexican gun running/drug running operation has proven to be the most outrageous example yet that these black politicians at the top of the chain feel they are completely covered by political correctness and the all-important "race card". It won't work this time. Holder is toast. And once he gets the boot or resigns, here's hoping his replacemnt will reopen that egregious New Black Panther event in which they intimidated white voters to leave the premises and not vote. Obama's thuggery and outward dislike for "those rich white people", (his pastor Jeremiah Wright's quote), and for all that America stands for. The Democrats won't survive the 2012 election. But most unfortunately, the most qualified conservatives will not be nominated in the Republican primary, and at best all we'll get is another George W Bush type of moderate.

Imagine if the "Obama Care" prototype originator, Mitt Romney gets the nomination? Or Herman Cain, who has TWICE recently played the race card against truly innocent statements made by his opponents gets the nod? He would be infinitely better than Obama, but he, like Obama, still carries the "race chip" on his shoulder. He won't be a healer of America either. He may improve the economy some, but I doubt he'll work hard to reverse Obamacare and the other racial divides that Obama has created and/or enhanced.

If Romney, Cain and Perry are the best the Republican Party has to bring America back to her greatness, it's time to throw in the towel. Perry ain't got the energy, passion or ability. Romney is a lifetime political hack who looks, talks, and even moves like a stiff robot. His Romneycare and liberal Massachusetts style of governorship will do nothing to restore America. Herman Cain is bright, sharp, witty and knows how to make money, but so do thousands of other Americans. I've yet to hear him talk about social conservatism and the restoration of former American greatness.

Will "white guilt" strike again in yet another attempt to mollify their public school and media inculcated guilt? Donald Trump and Sarah Palin should have gotten into the debates, it would have been very interesting to see how they would have done against the other, what they would have said, and revealed how they feel inside about restoring American VALUES, and exactly WHAT they feel needs to be restored. As it is, it's the same old $#!t that's it's been since 1988. Vote for the least incompetent of two incompetent candidates. There's no superior, Reagan-like leadership anywhere to be found in this current heap of mediocre, moderate Republicans.

[SueRae]

Just the facts, ma'am. Holder is done. and when he goes, 0bama’s wall collapses as well. Holder should be charged.

WORST ADMINISTRATION EVER

[Billthedrill]

I'm usually pretty cautious about predictions in this sort of highly volatile political matter but I do think Holder is done. This isn't Watergate, it isn't a stain on a blue dress, people are actually dead on this one.

I do see a Presidential pardon in the wings, which will bring the media to consider Scooter Libby, who, it is to be remembered, was not pardoned by G.W. Bush. He was convicted and only that portion of his sentence that represented actual prison time was commuted. The rest of it stood, including disbarment, supervised release, and community service. I mention that here because it is nearly certain to be misrepresented by the Associated Press, the NY Times, Washington Post, CNN, and the rest of the usual suspects. That I do predict with considerable confidence.
