With that being said I think my Wager on Eric Holder Never Being Held Accountable under the LAW will have to be at least $500 if Ceaser’s will give me 3 to 1 odds or Better. Anybody Else??

Stonewall....Holder is using Executive Privelege to hide communications and responsibility, and is Blaming Bush.

Since we're trampling on the Constitution these days.
Federal Officials should be denied the use of the 5th Amendment as they are doing the "Peoples Business" and there fore have no right to "Privacy" in their Official Capacities.

One witness (Cunningham) already took the fifth. Holder is saying he left the Justice Department on Monday. Mr. Cunningham had probably better hire body guards.

Martha Stewart served a term in Federal prison for lying to Congress.

I assume the same laws apply Holder ?

I’m going to have to side with Roccus on this one.

If Issa and Burton don’t grab a lever immediately and open a trap door to Jabba the Hut’s bit beneath capitol hill with a Rancor monster in it, then this is all just ‘political theater.’

Yes, all this “law, law, law” and “evidence schmevidence” is silly. Rule of law is slow and painful, inefficient and not very rewarding TV.

“Off with his head! Trial later!”

I think we’d do much better if Congress had Politburo powers that Henry Waxman could use against, well, anyone he chooses if the Dems get the House back.

Can someone explain why Holder is allowed to decide what evidence is seen or not?

And is it me or is Holder full of crap????? Who is buying his schtick??

All I can say, is go get him Issa!!!!! He seems to be the ONLY one really ripping into Holder, whereas everyone else is just throwing softball questions or accusations out there.

Holder: I’d like to see those memos

Gowdy: We got the memos from you

Issa calls recess to show him the memos.

Taking the 5th is exactly like saying “I did it, but you’ll never get to prove it”.

Off with his head!...and his boss’s! (figuratively, of course, in case they have spies!)
