This was no “witch-hunt”, but if you wanted to hold a “Bitch-hunt”, just look at Pelosi, Waters, Wasserman-Putz, Sheila Jackson Lee, Barbara Lee, Maloney, Murphy, Schakowsky, etc.

There aren’t enough “Bitch-hunt” permits to get all the Democrat feminist thingies, and I haven’t even mentioned the Senate or Hillary or The Wookie.

Have you noticed that Pelosi is sounding so crazy that even liberal political/legal commentators are asking what is happening to her?

Pelosi, singing, “I go crazy”. Waters singing, “I am crazy”. Wasserman-Putz singing “I’m a dingdong and don’t wash my hair, ever”.

They’re coming to get me, ha ha, heh heh! (Pelosi).

IMO the 108 D who left were just covering their _____. They did NOT want it on record that they supported illegal activies by JustUS and the Won.

The DOJ doesn't need to pursue Holder. All the House has to do is subpoena him and once he arrives order the Sergent Of Arms to place him in cuffs.

“Nancy Pelosi...She’s as corrupt as Holder, Obama, and Reid.”

She said they would pass Obamacare if it cost them their jobs. They lose their jobs by getting voted out...she admitted the will of the people is to be ignored.

Nazi Pelosi - fascist is as fascist does.

I think it is a $1000 fine, actually; it would be nice to be wrong, though.
In any case, this is prosecuted by the Federal Attorney for DC whose boss is... Eric Holder.
We probably won’t even get a decent discovery phase out of him...

Good to see Nazi Polizei and the Professional Black Racists decided to throw their childish tantrum. A bunch of O.J. jury wannabes.

What good will this do? I agree. It would have carried more weight if they had voted, "liar, liar, pants on fire."

The fact that they did NOT vote to support WithHolder indicates the walk out was just a guise to hide the fact that they didn’t want to vote to support criminal actions by 0.

As I see it, this places the documents in limbo. Actually, I would assume they are considered evidence to any further hearings and will remain so until a decision is reached which could be months.

Good, now they need to put his ass in prison. Conspiracy to cover up a murder, obstruction, any perjury. I,d say about 20 in Federal maximum security.

“... 108 Democrats didn’t cast votes. Most of them were protesting the fact that the House GOP was holding the vote.”

Most of them were chicken.

My closer is that more than 8 times as many Democrats crossed party lines to oppose Holder than Republicans crossed to support him.

OR they didn’t want to be on record as supporting illegal program. They could have voted and supported WithHolder and then walked out.
