Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus reiterated his call for Attorney General Eric Holders resignation on Wednesday, and promised Operation Fast and Furious will be an election issue in 2012.
Holder may want to point fingers and play the blame game, but as the Attorney General, he bears the responsibility, Priebus told The Daily Caller. Its past time for the attorney general to come clean and take responsibility and if he doesnt, he has a boss who should.
Obamas leadership deficit in holding the members of his administration accountable demonstrates yet again that the president is taking Washington in the wrong direction and only making things worse, said Preibus.
If Obama wont fire Holder, we will, Priebus added. Well fire the whole team in just 11 months.
Priebus considers Obamas continued support for Holder a sign of a consistent lack of competence in the administration. He said that although Holder is ultimately responsible for Fast and Furious, the president refuses to hold him accountable.
Whether its Attorney General Holder under fire for Fast and Furious or Energy Secretary Chu for wasting taxpayer dollars, President Obama has a competence problem within his inner circle, Priebus said. Despite the facts showing otherwise, Eric Holder has repeatedly denied fault in a reckless scandal that ended with the death of a border patrol agent and 1,400 guns lost in Mexico and the United States.
Priebus also promised to make Fast and Furious a prominent theme during the 2012 election.
He did a pretty bang up job for the NAACP Legal Defense Fund when he worked for them. I suspect that is when he stopped using Reinhold as his name and tried to hide his mother's German ancestry.
Multi-culturalism cannot include a Western European heritage.
I know and its frustrating. F&F could rip the roof off and dipship keeps throwing curve balls. Now he gets on his big plane and takes off for Hawaii. Everyone gone home for the holidays and our country is on the verge of a vortex. Giving me gray hair and making the rest fall out.
F A S T & F U R I O U S! Keep beating the drum.
Wow. From the thread trolls unable to read the first line of the article - to you pinheads grasping at any reason to trash a Tea Party conservative - one who engineered one of the biggest upsets the Dems have ever suffered at any time anywhere as a matter of fact - leading directly to one of the most talked about political takeovers in the nation, with the election of Governor Walker who gave the State worker unions a long deserved beat down - Because of his name? That and the fact in studying law he interned with the NAACP as a young man? Tea Party in Wisconsin gave the nation something to witness and actual results and much of it due to Reince’s work. You cannot twist that fact into your comfortable little fiction.
The window crashed on me 3 times. I read 3 paragraph before it crashed the last time. Maybe someone can post it.
My point in making the link was that Fast & Furious is fairly well known despite being relatively ignored on TV. This editorial is from The Press Enterprise in Riverside, Calif.
I hope you are right. F&F goes to Hussein.
Reince Priebus
Who?
I mean, he hasn’t exactly made his presence known outside his office.
Make that "Princess" for all the good he's done.
Cheers!
...oh, and Merry Christmas.
Thanks marktwain.
With who? With Mr. Massachusetts-gun-control himself at the top of the ballot?
Thank you. Don’t know how I missed this. Merry Christmas!!! All the best to ya.
The difference between Gunrunner and F&F is that the former actually tracked the weapons. The latter made no such attempt. Hence, Hillary/Holder's programme was intended to arm Mexican drug cartels with which to help justify a police state while simultaneously justifying the UN Small Arms Treaty.
IOW, disarm Americans and arm violent Mexican criminals.
Frankly, I think your concern about his name is a bit off-base, though I do get that it is not a name that connects with most folks, but then, again, what about Barack Hussein Obama? Suggestion: Let’s see what he does and says, is my take. If it takes a guy named Rince, Reinze, whatever, so be it, if he can “git ‘er done!”
Kind of a limp wristed sort of guy outside of Wisconsin.
Tell your little friend he has to give up the mealy-mouthed stuff and start telling the Democrats what-for.
Frankly, he should resign now while there's a chance for us to find someone with the capability of bringing in a big win ~ kinda' like the last guy ~ AN HISTORIC WIN.
This is beginning to sound like the last days of Ken Mehlman.
They wouldn’t get a conviction. The Obamistas RUN THE SENATE. People like Hairy Reed and Dick Turban would do everything they could to avoid a trial in the Senate even if Holder was caught shooting at a classroom full of first graders.
Your boy, Priebus, must have given up the ghost in Wisconsin ~ he really didn't deliver anything all that record breaking in the last election and he doesn't sound like he intends to deliver anything in the next election
He has no sense of what it takes to deal with national issues.
You, and he, should find real jobs somewhere.
Michael was not conservative, and he now works for MSNBC - what does that tell you.
The Establishment folks, and presumably Priebus, are supporting Romney.
Sorry, does not compute.
BTW, Mike and I also are not afraid to work around or near black folks ~ did that for 40 years ~ just like everybody else. Amazing he was able to pull down the RNC job ~ and working for MSNBC means, well, it means they made an offer and he needed a job.
