Although several members of Congress have now called on Attorney General Eric Holder to resign over Operation Fast and Furious, he appeared to dismiss the congressional investigation into the program as not important when reporters asked about it on Tuesday.
We have sent thousands of pages of documents, Holder said in response to a question about whether hell be complying with new subpoenas expected to be heading his way this week. Well look at the subpoenas. Im sure we will undoubtedly comply with them.
But what I want the American people to understand is that in complying with those subpoenas and dealing with that inquiry, that will not detract us from the important business we have to do here at the Justice Department, including matters like the one that we have announced today, Holder continued.
When a reporter followed up and asked the Attorney General if he knew about the controversial tactics employed in Fast and Furious, Holder refused to answer and walked off the stage.

I think Nixon took a similar line in 1973, that the Watergate investigation was just a distraction that was interfering with his duty to do his job.

I'm still hoping that somebody offers Holder a deal if he gives up his boss...
If holder could have had his say he woudl have said
WHAAAAAAA ....BUT I don’t want to talk about that. We arrested a guy so you would have something else to talk about! I am taking my briefing and going until you learn to as the right questions!
If you want to ask about anything like Fast and Furious, Solyndra or Black Panther Investigations you can go here on line to Obama’s new press secretary.
“I think Nixon took a similar line in 1973, that the Watergate investigation was just a distraction that was interfering with his duty to do his job.”

And he was right.
The hugely overblown “Watergate” was nothing but a boss covering up for an unauthorized, botched, third rate burglary by two of his subordinates.
The racist pig Holder’s crap is MUCH more damaging, more venal, intentional and traitorous.
Wait a minute, the Mexican Drug Cartels were just implicated in an Iranian terrorist attack on the United States and our Attorney General thinks that running guns to those same Drug Cartels is not important ?
He looks like a chocolate Hitler.
Holder is a nationalist socialist (black power/ minority power nationalism....socialist:..use taxation and penalties to redistribute “wealth” historically allegedly stolen from minorities(sic) Holder is the Obama Junta’s enforcer. The whole lot are fascists and we need to get rid of them ALL.

Thanks for the link.
BINGO! Good Post.
Issa needs to keep up the pressure....and NOT compromise
with the Dems on his Fast and Furious investigation.
Obama is deciding whether to let someone swing to take the rap.Issa should not bite but keep pressing until Obama is implicated on the record. Issa needs to rid us of these fascists.
I don’t get this “resign” thing. He should be in jail.
MM you are all over F&F and I for one appreciate the ping list!
Like you, I do not believe for a moment that Iran had anything to do with this bogus plot.
It is as bogus as the day is long....Agreed.
But Obama is a fascist....his antics are just beginning.He will be worse than a leech to get rid of.
