Rep. Olson Introduces Articles of Impeachment Against Eric Holder
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | November 13, 2013 | Matthew Boyle

Posted on 11/13/2013 6:03:18 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Rep. Pete Olson (R-TX) has introduced an Articles of Impeachment resolution against Attorney General Eric Holder for his role in Operation Fast and Furious and other scandals of President Barack Obama’s administration.

Seven congressman have signed onto the resolution thus far in addition to Olson. They are Reps. Larry Bucshon (R-IN), Blake Farenthold (R-TX), Phil Roe (R-TN), Lynn Westmoreland (R-GA), Roger Williams (R-TX), Ted Yoho (R-FL), and Randy Weber (R-TX).

The Articles of Impeachment has four different sections. The first calls for Holder’s official removal because of his failure to comply with congressional subpoenas relating to Operation Fast and Furious. Holder has been voted on a bipartisan basis into both criminal and civil contempt of Congress for his failure to comply with the Fast and Furious subpoenas from House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA).

The second section of the Articles of Impeachment deals with Holder’s refusal to enforce the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), the Controlled Substances Act, and the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986. The third section calls for Holder’s impeachment on the grounds that he has refused to prosecute any IRS officials involved in the “scandal of unauthorized disclosure of tax records belonging to political donors.”(continued)

While they are at it they might as well impeach Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

Let them scream racism all they want, the only thing that will do is bring more unwanted attention to all those scandals and the why they have even treated their own constituents ( usefull idiots ) it’s attention that they don’t want or ill afford to have.

Good move.

All those who do support the Impeachment and try to block it...will be supporting Eric Holder.
