President Barack Obama has forcefully rejected calls for Attorney General Eric Holder to resign over a controversial federal law enforcement operation that allegedly allowed hundreds of guns to flow to Mexican drug cartels.
Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) and the National Rifle Association have called for Holder's resignation over "Operation Fast and Furious," the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives investigation that monitored suspicious gun sales. Several of the weapons have been recovered from drug gangs in Mexico and two guns were found at the scene of the shooting death of a U.S. Border Patrol Agent last December.
However, when asked at a roundtable with Spanish-language print media on Monday whether Holder should quit, Obama said flatly, "No."

Why is it only Spanish-language media can get away with asking about Gun Walker?
I would suggest that Eric “the bigot” Holder and the rest of the group be escorted to the border for extradition to Mexico for conspiracy to murder, gun running, drug running, etc.
He can't afford to lose Holder because anyone else in the AG seat would immediately find mountains of evidence to put The Won in prison for a long time.
Obama will protect Holder at all costs .. he has to. God help Obama if Holder goes down the tubes .. he will take the Won with him.
If I were Holder I would be afraid if shaving in the morning now. he may have an accident ...
