The congressional contempt vote against Attorney General Eric Holder is looking more and more like a fait accompli, as House Speaker John Boehner presses ahead with a Thursday floor vote and conservative Democrats one-by-one announce they will side with Republicans.
At least four Democrats so far have said they plan to vote to hold Holder in contempt over his refusal to turn over Operation Fast and Furious documents. Sources told Fox News that roughly 20 are likely to break ranks.

Democrats are fast becoming witch hunters and racists.
I agree, this is much much more then Watergate.
It’s Murdergate and who knows how many are involved besides these two.
Wasn’t Nixon just trying to find out who a mole was?
No one died on his watch and he graciously stepped down.
Agreed that this is more series than Watergate.
But
“gracious” is not exactly the word that comes to mind when Richard M. Nixon’s name is mentioned. Even by those who think he was better than the conventional wisdom says he was.
This criminal enterprise by Holder/Obama makes Watergate look like child's play. If the enemedia was reporting on this as they should have been, and like they did on Watergate, Holder would already be gone and Obama would be sweating bullets.
No. Will collard greens do?
A more proper way of putting it would be...... Democrats are witch hunters and racists.
Not while Obama has the power of the pardon. That will shield Holder from any real consequences and he can follow the "Sandy Burglar" model of life after scandal. Heck, look how well Client #9 is doing. This is a badge of honor to those berks. If anything, it enhances their career opportunities. /disgust
I guess I was just wondering why he would allow his reputation to be totally destroyed going down in history as being held in contempt of Congress. Is obama really worth losing your integrity and reputation for? I strongly believe this scandal goes to the top and that obama is behind F&F. And you’re right -it’s disgusting and disgraceful.
The media should be all over this. 24-7. But they aren't. Of course if Bush were still President...
IMPORTANT UPDATE: The full House of Representatives is expected to hold a “Contempt Of Congress” vote against Attorney General Eric Holder THIS WEEK. To be included in the petition delivery prior to that vote, sign today.
Great work with the petition! I just posted the same link not knowing you are well ahead of the ball!
He has never had a good reputation. He has been known for years to be an anti-American, white hating, smug bastard who is known for spitting on the constitution. He is a “go to guy” which is why he is attorney general under the Marxist Obama. You certainly can’t think that he cares about his rep after his handling of the black panther voter intimidation case.
I saw that prediction, and if it comes true, it tells you all the polls about how well Obama is doing are pure bullsh!t.
If 20 or more do vote for the contempt resolution, it will make it more difficult to spin this as a vote along party lines. There may be a few Dems who vote for this based on principle, but I suspect that a number of them are anticipating a landslide loss for Obama, and want to give themselves cover as they also run for reelection.
The drive-by-media is putting out the tale that “some” Dems may join in this only because the NRA is putting pressure on them. Not because it is the right thing to do. Not in a spirit of bipartisanship or compromise, but just because they are traitorous snakes. Geesh.
It's ok, I'm pretty sure you can use the word coot.
Is that the U.S.S.R. Obama?
Every vote is bought or sold by the leaders in the congress
The leadership would rather throw Holder under the bus than keep the vote partisan there is no value in keeping the vote partisan...
They know Holder is gone anyway whether or not Obama wins
