Thank You! Issa is a toady and a total tool.
If Holder refuses to refer the Congressional referral to a federal grand jury, then he has set himself up for impeachment.
She will be tomorrow when they have the vote.
House Republicans won’t rule out arresting Lois Lerner if Justice Department doesn’t
...And without a good business, you have no sales! lol
“If Holder refuses to refer the Congressional referral to a federal grand jury, then he has set himself up for impeachment.”
The House can hold Holder in contempt and impeach him as much as it want. The Senate will never convict. Even if the Republicans win the Senate in 2014, the Senate will never convict Holder or most members of the current administration, including the President.
Presidential appointees can't be impeached.
But they can be accused tried and convicted of violating the RICO laws. Anyone can make and document the accusation.
The attorney general is nominated by the President of the United States and takes office after confirmation by the United States Senate. He or she serves at the pleasure of the president and can be removed by the president at any time; the attorney general is also subject to impeachment by the House of Representatives and trial in the Senate for “treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors.”
The office of Attorney General was established by Congress by the Judiciary Act of 1789. The original duties of this officer were “to prosecute and conduct all suits in the Supreme Court in which the United States shall be concerned, and to give his advice and opinion upon questions of law when required by the president of the United States, or when requested by the heads of any of the departments.”[1] Only in 1870 was the Department of Justice established to support the attorney general in the discharge of his responsibilities.

Impeachment is a political act. If any rats don’t vote to convict the criminal Holder, use it in the upcoming elections.
I don’t think she’s the only crook in that organization. Her attitude spoke of large numbers of supporters/liars behind her...
