my email & fax to my rep:
Murder, dishonesty, irresponsibility, incompetence, cover-ups, lies and distortions and now protection under Executive Order. Sadly, these are all adjectives describing Eric Holder’s tenure as U.S. Attorney General.
Holder’s obstructionist conduct over “Fast and Furious” is a travesty,especially considering that the family of slain U.S. Border Agent Brian A. Terry continues to wait for justice that simply isn’t coming from “the most transparent administration” ever.
This is outrageous, and we’re joining with growing numbers of Americans who are calling for Eric Holder’s resignation. His long line of scandalous decisions from pardoning Marc Rich, to the pardon of 16 Armed Forces of National Liberation (FALN) terrorists, to his condemnation of Guantanamo Bay to refusing to defend the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and more - demonstrates that he lacks the integrity to carry out the duties and responsibilities as U.S. Attorney General.
We support the efforts of the members of Congress who are calling for Attorney General Eric Holders resignation. During his tenure as Attorney General he repeatedly demonstrated a lack of competence, accountability and honesty culminating in the Fast and Furious gun walking scandal.
Throughout the investigation, Holder has been an obstruction to truth and justice. The American people and the nation deserve better from federal officials and to that end, we are adding our names to this petition demanding Eric Holders immediate resignation as U.S. Attorney General. We also support the Contempt Of Congress vote in Congress against Holder.
Please know that we are carefully monitoring your actions on this important issue.

Great work with the petition! I just posted the same link not knowing you are well ahead of the ball!
Well said, TZ.
Louis Fisher, the scholar in residence at the nonprofit Constitution Project, said he doesnt expect Holder to get involved in the process, saying it would appear too cozy, too contrived and politically risky.
Politically and legally, it doesnt look attractive, Fisher told FoxNews.com. Obviously Holder’s been under pressure for more than a year, but I think there will be an argument by the Justice Department that anytime a president authorizes something, that whomever follows the presidents orders cannot be prosecuted.
This guy is making the same argument that Hitler’s henchmen did at Nuremburg! We did not allow THEM to use such an excuse!
