In its history, the United States House of Representatives has never held a United States Attorney General, or any other Cabinet official, in contempt.

Some interesting reading...

@ Eric Holder’s contempt vote: He’s hardly the first

@ Appendix. Congressional Contempt Resolutions, 1980-Present

@ Congress’s Contempt Power and the Enforcement of Congressional Subpoenas
Page 63 for Appendix. Congressional Contempt Resolutions, 1980-Present

Since the Dems don't seem to have the votes to block a contempt are they simply going to skip out on such an historic event without even lodging a protest vote?

Be sure and note the date of that report...May 8, 2012

Sounds like somebody wanted to be prepared in advance so they requested the report be prepared.
