Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) is turning up the heat on Eric Holder, demanding the attorney general come forward and at least admit he knew about Fast and Furious long before he told Congress he learned about the gun program.
The chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform said on Wednesday that Holder failed to properly answer questions during a May House Judiciary Committee hearing about when he first learned about the controversial gun program.

Well, there is the "Holder is a racist moron" reason. Holder hides behind his skin color because that has always worked for "his people."
Or, he really is THAT stupid.
Perhaps both?
.
Someone’s got the goods on junior?
WTF is going on here?
How about, "You're going to prison, son, for a long time. Now, we can knock off a few years if you finger your uppers."
The reason these people are so very arrogant with their abuse of power is because they know that the press will cover for them.Take a bow,MSM,this is on you,too.
You know they have to be worried about whether Holder will go quietly or drop a dime on Barry to save himself.
Holder: I read somewhere that elections have consequences.
Obama: Yes, 2008 was the high point of my life.
Holder: I was talking about 2010.
I meant to add...someone is gonna spill the beans.
My only hope is that Issa has a TON more information and evidence from the July 4 meeting with Melson than has been leaked already.
Exactly right. Andrew McCarthy expounds on multiple examples of Holder's pattern of dishonesty in "Holder's Dubious History"
Issa just loves the cameras - we need more Business and less Show Business. He is doing good work and seemingly asking the right questions but as he has pointed out himself, it is a race against time. He has just over 1 year to get it done! Stonewalling is a wondrous thing.
gotta wonder if issa has a memo FROM holder which he is holding to leak next.
Wanna bet? He’ll get off.
Doesn’t he have to be convicted before he can be pardoned?
If he can be kept twisting in the wind and tried after there is a new
President, the Kenyan will not be able to declare a pardon.
...All POTUS have copy machines under the desk, and a “Friends get out of jail free” template...
Not only will he get off, the media is beginning to blame Bush and Gonzales.
I happened to be scanning channels this morning and caught the CBS morning show. I have no idea who is on it or what the name of the show is but I caught the words “fast and furious” and stayed on that channel.
I heard “Bush mentioned numerous times and do not recall the word “Obama” a single time. They talked about it starting 4 years ago and how she had tried to phone Gonzales but he didn’t answer.
They did mention Holder but only in the sense that “the republicans” are going after him.
I just knew they were going to do this and now they are. Same old same old.
Maybe the Obama administration was getting some sort of kickbacks from the cartels. I wouldn’t put anything past these crooks.
I agree. Republican on TV yesterday (can’t think of name at the moment) stated that in asking for a special prosecutor to investigate, he WASN’T alleging perjury.
WTF?? Why bother then?
I’m truly beginning to think that Hillary has the goods via FBI files on the repubs. Although, methinks she’d let Barky/Holder go down flaming and not say a word.
Issa could make a point if he did that for every question he asked Holder...:^)
Yeah right
Just like that GOP congress and president went after Sandy Berger for stealing and destroying secret documents during the 911 investigation
The MSM controls all investigations and without them NOTHING happens
