NYT: White House Wants Holder to Resign
Newsmax ^ | 6/2/2013 | Audrey Hudson

Presidential aides are privately admitting to a growing frustration inside the White House with Attorney General Eric Holder’s political ineptness in the press leak investigations and are hoping the embattled appointee will resign from office, The New York Times reports.

“The White House is apoplectic about him, and has been for a long time,” said an anonymous Democrat source, identified only as a former government employee who acknowledged the White House staffers in question are his friends.

President Barack Obama’s advisers are frustrated with Holder’s inability to foresee problems arising from his approval of a subpoena naming a Fox News reporter as a coconspirator in an espionage investigation. Now Congress is looking at whether Holder lied under oath when he testified last month that he knew nothing about the incident.

Not following you here, Norm, can you explain?

I sent a note to my illustrious Senator Coburn saying the very exact this. Nothing, NADA let nothing go through.

You can see how well that worked out.

Personally without Holder the whole house of cards could collapse. At least 2 or so years ago. Now there may not be enough time.

Probably but anyone wanna deny the final outcome will look almost verbatim like my post? They are that arrogant.

The ‘educational’ system intentionally stupidized America for times such as these after all.

“You corrupt criminal should be wearing an orange jumpsuit in the darkest hole of a prison for all the atrocities committed under the Clinton/Obama regimes.”

It goes back a long way...Waco, Branch Dividians come to mind. He should have been tried, convicted and executed for that...but not w/o taking Janet Reno with him. Of course, we all know that Clinton was himself complicite,

All these agencies are the result of elected representatives being derelict in their duties by setting up these agencies to do the work for which they were elected. Politicians in DC are more interested in their social life than doing actual people work. I’ve been there and fought the battles at the local level in the same kind of environment.

Not a pardon but a deal...And it wouldn't involve Obama at all.

You have to go back and see how Bubba's deal worked. One of the deals was taking his state Law license for 5 years. Another was that he would never practice in front of the United States Supreme Court.

IIRC, Bubba's deal was announced about 10 minutes before he left office.

"All these agencies are the result of elected representatives being derelict in their duties by setting up these agencies to do the work for which they were elected."

Certainly true wrt the "regulations" to be "determined by the Secretary/Director/etc. It's a complete Dereliction of Duty on the part of Congress to not include all of the regulations in the Legislation they pass. Delegate nothing (We have 535 CongressCritters to get some work done for (as opposed to to) the People.

Hang in there Holder. Make this last as long as you can, so Obama and Hillary can twist in the wind.

I think Hillary is tied at the hip to this bastard. He goes, and she’s in serious trouble concerning 2016.

" Tossing Holder under the bus, then standing at the podium stating with a straight face that everything’s OK now. It’s the Democrat way. "

Liberal/Democrat thinking and philosophy: Delusional thinking that you can pick up a turd by the clean end.

if Holder goes down, he’s taking Obama with him.

Grant Holder Immunity from Under The Bus.

He will sing like a canary.
