The fact that creatures such as he inhabit the highest offices in the land are a sad testament to how badly our nation has fallen.

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 he’ll be complying with new subpoenas expected to be heading his way this week. “We’ll look at the subpoenas. I’m 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.

Thanks, not sure why my link wasn’t working.
The fact that creatures such as he inhabit the highest offices in the land are a sad testament to how badly our nation has fallen.
I mean, when government has grown so big that you don't even know what the people underneath you are doing, like Holder claims, then things have gotten way to big and too far out of control.
/sarcasm
Well, they had word that the subpoenas were coming down, so they prepped the dog and pony show, and even initially tied in the Israeli Embassy.
All theater (they've been sitting on the alleged Iranian for a while now, everyone else was working for the Feds), just for the moment to deflect attention from their own crimes.
How positively Liberal of them.
You noticed that little logical tweak, too?
(8^D)
Wonder if his dissing the liberal MSM reporters will get them po-ed or if they will just leave with their tails between their legs
They must have some pride !!!!!
Holder is up to his eyes in shiite and so is Obama
It isn’t breaking my heart. They get what they deserve ... HOPEFULLY!
How about Rodney Dangerfield’s lawyer?
“He’s so good he got a rape charge reduced to following too closely.”
” Were they going to use one of those Fast and Furious 50 caliber Sniper Rifles to kill the Saudi Ambassador ? “
Were they going to conveniently leave out the middlemen and pin the entire assasination attempt on the original gun seller (probably a veteran white guy..ya know, the dangerous type..)?? He would have to be conveniently killed in a firefight, though, otherwise he’d have proof of gov’t involvement..
If you are going to carry out a hit like this, you ambush the prince at night from a dark corner. Wack. Wack. Like a friend of mine who is really into guns jokingly told me once, if I decide to take you out, you wont even see it coming. And he is an amateur. You do not target ambassadors with restaurant bombs. That is how you target restaurants.
So correct, Joe.
Holder was a Clinton holdover as was Rahm Emanuel and when I saw the two of them working for Oblame-o I understood how corrupt this administration would be. And I haven't been disappointed by them yet.
What type of person would hire thugs like this to represent them in this great country? The prestige and power that comes from such appointments should not be taken lightly, and those that do, speak volumes about their disregard for America and what she stands for. A punkass like Holder as Attorney General? What was this Kenyan thinking? What he wasn't thinking about was this country's best interests, that's for sure.
All I can conclude is that Oblame-o and those who surround him are those who "hated America- before hating America was cool".
If the purpose for running guns to border thugs was to discredit gun owners and gun shops with the hope that they could crack-down on both, it backfired. Were Sarah Brady and her ilk ever to find themselves in a cheeseburger joint only to be held captive by gun-toting MS13 gang members, I'd have only one question for them: "Would you like fries with that?"
I love my Sheriff Joe!
