The House Oversight Committee has just passed a Resolution holding Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt for not releasing Fast and Furious documents.
The contempt charge now goes to the entire House for a vote on holding Holder in contempt before it is sent to prosecution.
The committee even passed an amendment with many reasons why Obama's executive privilege is not valid
The Committee hearing was very interesting. The Democrats, like Reps Towns and Rep Norton, tried to say that the Committee should give more time to Eric Holder because Holder is willing to work with the committee to release some documents.
The Committee Chairman, Rep Issa, made clear that the Committee had given plenty of time to Holder and has been very lenient and even had staff stay up all night waiting for the documents. Issa said that no one is above the law.
The Committee meeting was very long and there were many arguments back and forth. Below are some of the highlights from the meeting: Congressman Chaffets quotes President Obama from when Obama first got into office about transparency. Chaffets quoted Obama from when Obama said that his administration would be completely transparent and would allow freedom of information requests even when the information requested might be embarrassing.
Chaffets said we have thousands of guns given to drug cartels. We have hundreds of people dead across the border. We have a US Border Patrol Agent dead.

And Obama’s chance for re-election has gone up on intrade from 52.9% this morning to 53.7% I don’t get it, I thought it would drop a little or remain steady. Oh well, never underestimate the stupidity of the American voter.
No-knock raid on Holder’s house being planned?

I don’t know about the bath salts thing. Do blog pimps eat faces?

Thanks guys, all of you were right on. Bellows was a Texas SREC committee member and was voted out of that position at the state convention. I won’t go into why that happened but it was a good thing.
His blog still says he is an SREC member - not true.
