Tom Maguire Pins Holder to the Mat
Pajamas Media ^ | 8th October 2011 | Clarice Feldman

In this short but sweet denouement Tom Maguire whose blog, Just One Minute, is always a must read, pins Attorney General Eric Holder to the mat.

Eric Holder provides the smile du jour for this rhetorical surge:

Holder also lashed out at some of the more extreme charges being leveled by Republican lawmakers, such as a statement this week by Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) that federal officials who approved the “gun-walking” technique should be charged as accessories to murder.

“Such irresponsible and inflammatory rhetoric must be repudiated in the strongest possible terms,” Holder wrote. “Those who serves in the ranks of law enforcement are our nation’s heroes and deserve our nation’s thanks, not the disrespect that is being heaped on them by those who seek political advantage.”

That would stand in contrast to the investigation of CIA professionals on the front lines in the war on terror who have been investigated for their role in the enhanced interrogation program.

Unless you are a Border Patrol agent.

Or sheriffs such as Joe Arpaio whom Holder has been investigating...

I won’t patronize his blog but if that’s all he said, he didn’t pin Holder to the mat. The “tu quoque” argument never does. It’s lame.
Holder has plenty of blood on his hands. We need to ring up our legislators, loud and clear.

Eric Holder is party to the murder of law enforcement officials. He should be made to stand before their widows and orphans and compelled to explain that his goal in the murder of their loved ones was to justify the draconian disarmament of our nation's law abiding citizens to leave them defenseless against his fellow lawless thugs.

If I buy a weapon for a felon and sell it to him knowing he can not legally possess it, I would be a felon. If the felon used the weapon in a murder, I would be an accessory to murder. This is an offense that Mr. Holder would be delighted to prosecute.

ps The only reason that Obama has not fired Holder is Obama is ass deep in this mess himself.

The occupy Wall Street movement is a coordinated movement by the far left and certain far left unions. It is not coincidence. This is an attempt to bring chaos and confusion to the nation and divert the heat off the Justice and Executive departments. Rahm Emanuel said, "NEVER LET A CRISIS GO TO WASTE." The Occupy Wall Street Movement is a manufactured crisis. Manufacted by this administration. This is straight out of the book "Rules for Radicals" by the communist Saul Alinsky.

Or a company (Gibson) that makes guitars in a Right-to-Work state...and donates to Republicans.

How stable is this Holder clown? Would it be out of the possibility if the heat gets too hot, he Vincent Fosters himself? I don't see how he gets out of this. He either is fully responsible and knew all about the program and green lighted it or as he said, he's an incompetent fool and doesn't read his memos or have a clue as to what's going on in the Justice Department. If he was smart he would be gone by Halloween, to “be with his family and pursue other interests.”

Maybe, we could offer him to Mexico for a peace offering after he allowed drug cartels to purchase weapons that killed Mexican citizens. Let Mexico take care of him.

Thanks for posting. The thread is much better than what Tome Maguire said. Thanks to every poster. BTTT!

“—That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”
