Holder presses delay on Fast and Furious documents

The AG has no respect for the rule of law and no respect for Congress. Congress should use its primary power over a rogue executive to restrain the AG - impeachment. That won’t happen because the Senate is too corrupt to do its job, but the House has a back up - the power of the purse. The House should withhold a significant portion of the AG’s funding until Holder turns over the documents required for the House to conduct oversight.

Holder is only supporting the laws he wants to enforce.

Geesh, get off his back.

That was not what my comment was inferring. I have nothing but the up most respect for Ethical L.E.O.

Crooked, unethical, ruthless bastards hiding behind and abusing ANY position of Authority over American Citizens are a completely different matter...

"At the foundation of our civil liberties lies
the principle that denies to government officials
an exceptional position before the law and which
subjects them to the same rules of conduct
that are commands to the citizen."
Justice Louis D. Brandeis

"When the law no longer protects you from the corrupt,
but protects the corrupt from you -
you know your nation is doomed."
-Ayn Rand

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same,
or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children
and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
President Ronald Reagan

I still have confidence that a Judge will not engage in decision making because of politics. For example, Judge Jackson was appointed by the current President. Any judge abhors a direct lie or obfuscation. They detest when their authority is challenged.

That works 100% of the time when the GOP is involved or when Bush was president. Not so much now but I do applaud what this judge has done so far. Of course when it gets to the entire circuit, the movement on a geologic pace will begin. Sometime in 2018, the results will be in and it will be held they were violating the law, obstructed justice and should have been tossed in jail but too much time has elapsed and President Clinton will issue a pardon.

A handful of Iraqi combatants were made to do naked dog piles while a German Shepherd barked at them - it merits 46 consecutive front page NY Times stories.

Fast and Furious supplies thousands of guns to the Mexican drug cartels, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of innocent Mexican civilians - The Times gives it one or two mentions on page A-26, mostly discussing Republican overreach in investigating the scandal.
