Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain told The Daily Caller that the more than 30 members of Congress calling on Attorney General Eric Holder to resign immediately “can’t be wrong.” As of Thursday morning, 34 members of Congress have called on Holder to step down immediately.
During an interview with TheDC’s Ginni Thomas on Wednesday evening in Washington, D.C., Cain expressed support for those calling for Holder’s resignation. “I’m disappointed in all of the conflicting stories,” Cain said, adding that he hasn’t personally called for Holder’s ouster because he has “not followed it close enough to say that I want to pile on.”
“But I happen to believe that 30 congressmen can’t be wrong, in terms of the determination that they have made, that suggests that it may be better for him to step down,” Cain added. “I trust those 30 congressmen and the analysis that they have done.”
Watch:
At the time of his interview with TheDC, the total number of members of Congress calling for Holder’s resignation was 30.
Cain is not the first presidential candidate to weigh in on Holder’s job performance. Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum and, through a spokesman, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney have each told TheDC that Holder should resign if the facts presented to the public thus far turn out to be accurate, or if it is determined that he misled Congress.
Spokespersons for GOP candidates Ron Paul, Rick Perry, Jon Huntsman and Newt Gingrich have not returned requests for comment about where those candidates stand with respect to Holder’s future as America’s top law enforcement officer.

Not only should he resign, he should be tried, convicted and executed for high crimes and treason against this nation’s citizens.
30 Congressmen can’t be wrong? It’s rare to find 30 of them that get something RIGHT!
without reading this....(as is my want)
I gotta say to my main man Cain....
30 Congressmen CAN be wrong....it happens almost every day they are in session.
I agree about Holder....I just had to set the record straight about congress.....
“...30 congressmen can’t be wrong, in terms of the determination that they have made,...”
They’re right in this particular case, but I can’t agree with that statement as a general rule.
” ‘Thirty congressmen can’t be wrong’ “
Hmmmmmm....
Not the argument I would have chosen to make the point....
(More-than-thirty congresscritters were absolutely wrong on everything from “War On Poverty” to “EPA” to “Porkulus” and “Obamacare”)
Cain’s being racist....., no, H0lder’s being racist, .......no, Zer0’s being racist (maybe mullatoist)......, no it must be the media.
But I happen to believe that 30 congressmen can’t be wrong, in terms of the determination that they have made, that suggests that it may be better for him to step down,” Cain added. “I trust those 30 congressmen and the analysis that they have done.”

Nor I. I also have an MS in Computer Science like Cain, but this is simple logic. His assertion is easily disproved with one (1) counter example.
The 1994 passage of the so-called "Assault Weapons Ban" by a vote of 216-214 clearly showed that there were 216 congress men who were wrong.
How many voted not to remove Clinton? Not only can 30 be wrong, the threshold is a whole lot higher than that.
Still, Holder’s gotta go.
READ the article please:
