Attorney General Eric Holder exploded at Texas Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert during a House hearing Tuesday.
In the midst of questions about the Justice Departments failure to divulge documents about the Holy Land Foundation terror funding trial, Gohmert made a side comment about how the House of Representatives found Holder in contempt in 2012 for refusing to turn over documents related to the Fast and Furious gun-running scandal.
I realize that contempt is not a big deal to our attorney general, but it is important that we have proper oversight, Gohmert said.
You dont want to go there, buddy! You dont want to go there, okay, Holder shot back.
I dont want to go there? the Texas Republican responded.
No, Holder said, leaning forward in his seat.
About the contempt? Gohmert asked.
You should not assume that that is not a big deal to me. I think that it was inappropriate, I think it was unjust. But never think that that was not a big deal to me. Dont ever think that, Holder said pointing at Gohmert.

“Buddy”? That’s about an inch from fisticuffs.

You dont want to go there, buddy! You dont want to go there, okay. Is it appropriate to call a congressman “Buddy” during a hearing? Contemptible people should be held in contempt.

If you are ever on board a flight to or from D.C. check to see if Rep. Louie Gohmert is aboard. If he is "Run away! Run away!"
We're dealing with
aged 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats (and their ideological issue) who discussed the need to kill as many as 25 million Americans to bring social justice to the U.S. of A. I hope my comment turns out to be a :) -- but I remember the 1960s and two decades before.

If I was Louie, I would be very wary and alert from this point forward. I would stay off commercial airplanes and out of Fort Marcy Park. Not for sure that I would not carry a pistol.

Yup.
You can take Holder out of the “Hood.,” but you can’t take the “Hood” out of Holder.
