Thursday's bipartisan decision in the House of Representatives to cite Attorney General Eric Holder for contempt of Congress came as no surprise. Even a last ditch, eleventh hour attempt by CNN/Fortune to muddy the waters with the ludicrous, libelous allegation that the whistleblower was the only "gunwalker" (a theme gleefully picked up by MSNBC and Mother Jones) failed to stop (or even hinder) the contempt citation.
What is perhaps surprising, though, is the convoluted lengths administration apologists were willing to go to in criticizing the contempt proceedings. Holder's defenders have apparently reached the conclusion that he is best served by pointing out that the aggressive pursuit of the investigation into the administration's culpability in the "gunwalker" scandal would do nothing for the nation's appalling unemployment rate.

Bump for later read.
Like his Clinton-era murdering predecessor, Holder is going to have to go on Saturday Night Live to yuk up his own American-killing antics.
All proto-fascist regimes do this. One excuse after another to set aside or
overrule the rule of law in the name of 'expediency' with the cover of 'emergency.'
Republicans need to move forward on this or the fascist tiger they have by the tail will devour them. It’s time Dems figure out they are not above the law.

Thats exactly right. And the emergency or the “expediency”
is usually “created” as it was in “Fast and Furious.” As it was in the invasion of Libya, as it was in introducing punitive health care.
Leave no doubt about it. Obama and his regime are fascist to the core.
