House advances Holder contempt resolution with help from 15 Dems
the Hill ^ | 6/28/2012 | Pete Kasperowicz

Posted on 06/28/2012 11:26:50 AM PDT by Brown Deer

The House voted Thursday to advance a resolution finding Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress, and a related resolution that could lead to civil court action against Holder.

Members voted 254-173 in favor of a rule governing floor debate for the two resolutions, setting up more debate and votes later in the day. The rule was approved by every Republican, and 15 Democrats, a sign that the resolutions might win the support of about a dozen or more Democrats later in the day.

If the GOP did that, then they would lose the wavering Lesbian Jewish vote for sure. Maybe even both of them. < / sarcasm >

But, seriously, isn't the status quo maintained in the event of a tie vote?

What did he just say about ‘underpants’? I can’t understand him. I don’t think he used adhesive on the ol’ choppers this morning.

A very very simple analysis of the ruling is that any and all money the government takes in for any reason under any guise of a penalty is a tax.

That is what the Roberts court has ruled.

The ramifications may be huge.

Dingle is comic relief.

Good grief, his district must be brain dead.
