FoxNews and the head of ATF say there is obstruction of Justice.

Any surprises with this being the Obama/Holder Department of Justice?

Every one should repeat

“What does the President know about F&F?”
and
“When did he know it?”

“However, he said that Justice Department officials directed them not to respond and took full control of replying to briefing and document requests from Congress.”

Wonderful quote. I do believe that is illegal.

Whoa, looks like the buck isn’t going to stop with Melson. I guess news of his resignation 1) was premature 2) was probably news to Melson. Duck and cover, DoJ, the chitstorm is coming in your direction.

The letter from Issa and Grassley linked to above notes that political appointee “Marshall Jarret” is involved in all of this.

Anyone else thinking “Valerie Jarret”?

In 2007 the NYT published an op-ed entitled "He's Impeachable, You know" about U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez.

Impeachment is in bad odor in these post-Clinton days. It needn’t be. Though provoked by individual misconduct, the power to impeach is at bottom a tool granted Congress to defend the constitutional order.

(...)

A cabinet officer, like a judge or a president, may be impeached only for commission of “high crimes and misdemeanors.” But as the Nixon and Clinton impeachment debates reminded us, that constitutional phrase embraces not only indictable crimes but “conduct ... grossly incompatible with the office held and subversive of that office and of our constitutional system of government.”

If Attorney General Holder's conduct in not "grossly incompatible with the office held and subversive of that office and of our constitutional system of government," then there is no such concept.

... two days ahead of his scheduled interview with the inspector general....

Methinks this is quite significant. Nothing like getting ahead of the curve. Melson may actually turn out to be one of the good guys once this is over.

“two days ahead of his scheduled interview”

Interesting. Was he afraid of something?

Like I’ve said before... this 0bama cabal belongs not only out of power, but in the bottom cells of SuperMax. They are criminals and should be treated as such.

If this was the Bush Administration this would be the first thing out of every TV news anchor’s mouth every day of the week. The NYT would have 5 or 6 reporters covering every aspect of this.

Remember Obama told the anti-gun people he was working on the issue “under the radar”. I think the plan was to create chaos with all these guns going to bad guys and then use the bloodshed as a pretext for more gun control.
