I just learned, the emails Holder is being held in contempt for not producing are not from the time periord during which Fast and Furious was created and enacted. No. Not even from the time period during which the operation was brought to light and people were disciplined. No. The emails he is being pressured to produce are from the time period after all this came to light, and after the administration had addressed it publically.
In other words, Republicans in Congress are trying to embarrass the administration into revealing emails where Obama and Holder may have talked about the political implications of the ATF operation. It's a purely political move to tarnish the president and attack his Attorney General.
PS I learned this simple fact, that the Obama administration has already produced all documents related to this operation, from it's inception through it's being made public and agents disciplined, from Huffington Post. The msm has not deigned to inform the general public of the gist of this contempt charge. Shame on you.
Amy, Clinton was probed and probed over a BJ. Millions of taxpayers' dollars were spent, Clinton lied under oath and later was impeached for it. And after all that, Clinton still left the office with a higher approval rating than any Republican president in our modern history.
The Republicans love their probing because that's all they've got.
The scandals coming out of this administration are developing at a rate faster than ever before. Hard to keep up. Obama is both stupid and arrogant. A terrible combination.
It is finally time to dump this disgusting dog-eater and his wrethed minions once and for all.
Let's elect a REAL leader with morals and integrity. Mitt Romney for the next eight years.
Joe: Mitt a "real" leader...you have got to be kidding! The flip flopping, backtracking, denying, unable to give any details or specifics....you know his statement "you'll know what I am going to do after I get elected".....
Or how about his "I don't know what I said I stand behind it" comment.
loyal: Not a concidence they are both on the same day.
No one I know or have talked to has any respect for Congress....they are useless....except for wiping the butts of their corporate, billionnaire masters.
Considering that the whole Fast and Furious program STARTED in 2006, under BUSH and His AG, NOT President Obama and AG Holder, you would think that the Repubs would have the sense to keep their mouths shut, especially since it was Repub operatives that lied to Holder about what they did and when. Are they really so stupid as to think that we, The People, cannot put two and two together and see that the Repubs are STILL trying to smear Pres. Obama with THEIR own crap-filled mud that they senselessly sling everywhere? Heck, they blame Pres. Obama for the portions of the NDAA that they (the Repubs/TPers) put into it themselves (the arrest and indefinite detention of Americans portion that Obama included a Signing Statement declaring that he would not uphold those portions of the bill because he felt them unconstitutional...but he signed the Bill so that our Military men and women would continue to get their paychecks) just like they blame him for the Individual Mandate portion of the Health Care Reform that they DEMANDED be included....and then took to Court.
If ANY of the mainstream media outlets were truly Fair, Balanced and HONEST it would be a constant stream of reporters with stories pointing out the lies, misdirections, failures, cheating and outright treason of the GOP/TPers and the Repub/TPer parties would die, practically overnight. But as it is, the Repubs have deeper pockets since they represent the Uber-Rich and Corporations exclusively...the very ones who have stolen the money and livelihoods of the rest of us...and so they, the MSM, willingly and knowingly fail to report the truth as it would cut off the flow of hundreds of millions of dollars to their executives.
It is time for our Military to do their patriotic and constitutional duty and arrest the treasonous right wing members of Congress, both Senate and House, the Conservative faction of the SCOTUS and the very bankers (Including those of the Privately Held 'Federal Reserve') and corporate leaders (like Romney) that have intentionally destroyed the middle class in America strictly for political and financial gain. Since the Military, each and every one of them, Swore an Oath to defend this Nation from Tyrants, both Foreign and Domestic, which the right wing has proven themselves to be...repeatedly, obnoxiously and blatantly...and it is time to remove these obstructive, obnoxious and treasonous snakes from any and all positions of power and prestige, forever, and put them on trial for Treason! It is their sworn duty to do so and The President should order it done, immediately, for the well being of this Nation!
Then what?? Hang them all?? Have them drawn and quartered??
Sounds like you just went over the edge. Hopefully the F.B.I. will put you on their watch list, and definitely a no-fly list. You sound like you could be dangerous.
Romney does what is best for him , always. Veterans, military retirees; note that Romney PROMOTED THE DRAFT, then skipped out to France for extraordinary lenth of time when church missionary tours were limited. When Romney came home, he sided with his dad that the whole Viet Nam War was a scam and that he was against the war. His early flip flops, he is good at. Promoting the draft, while Americans were dieing, he skipped out, then says he wishes he could have participated. Pro church, Anti Americam.
Eric Holder is being held in contempt of Congress; not because he is guilty of anything rather, simply because he is black and Issa wants to embarrass Pres Obama with a scandal prior to the election in the Fall. This is the cheapest trick I have ever witnessed in my life! Holder cooperated and handed over more than 7,600 pages of documents. When asked if the White House was suspected of any wrong doing, Issa replied, "No!" Still, Eric Holder is the first AG to be held in contempt of Congress in the history of this country. Maybe it is mere coincidence that Holder is a black man, but if you will by that sh!t I have a billion acres of prime swamp land to sell ya. This is 100% political and it stinks. Issa has no grounds for which to charge Holder with anything and he has said as much but then he does this anyway. What a clown? This nation has really shown its ass since Pres Obama waqs elected in 2008. The ReSuckicans want voter purging across the vastness of the US while in fact, they can produce only a few isolated instances where someone fudged on their vote.
I have ALWAYS hated white people and this crap is why! They will LIE about anything. Change the rules to fit their situation. Play word games whenever it suits them and then think they are somehow "holier than thou!" Blacks need to recognize who their true enemy is; not each other, but the pale-faced, white people who are in their lives and in the way. White people put up road blocks and barriers and then say they didn't do it; "the Law works in mysterious ways, Its wonders to perform!" Lying ass cock suckers ALL! Whites have done harm to every single indigenous culture they have ever encountered. Indians on reservations in THEIR own country? Blacks drug here to serve THEM! Invasion of Iraq without justification and now this! What horrible, dastardly THINGS the white race is. Blacks need to come to their senses and leave this forsaken people to themselves!
Needless to say, I am very angry, I am very disappointed, I am bitter, I am HURT...and I am sorry!
Not ALL white people are the same no more than all blacks are the same. In the heat of the moment I penned the above. I have many white friends who have been loyal to me and my band, The Knights of PleaZure, and they have been very supportive. In our nascent stage; our band needed new equipment and my white friends donated nearly $10,000 so we could purchase whatever we needed. I didn't mean to go off on a geo-political tirade but my feelings got the better of me. I actually have some very wonderful white friends and one of them gave me a call after reading what I wrote. I forgot that she too is a contributor to these pages. She was hurt and rightly so. I apologize to the white race for the above remarks; it just seems to me sometimes that blacks in America are forever treated poorly and targeted far too often. Fact is; Issa was looking for something because he has committed himself to doing hundreds of investigations into the doings of the Obama admn. and I think that such an effort is designed to blame blacks, esp; those closely associated with the President. Its not fair!
What I truly HATE is that a black man is the first to be held in contempt of Congress when so many other admn have done so much worse! The Nixon years brought many a scandal and his cabinet was replete with liars who went to jail for perjury and a whole host of other violations; but the office of the AG has ALWAYS been one that was hands off. Issa cannot admit that he has nothing and then in the next breath accuse Holder of something that he cannot prove, but to hold Eric Holder in contempt is just plain stupid arrogance. Issa wants Holder to stop looking into voter purging and this maneuver is designed to distract him. Issa should have facts and not just mere supposition; now Holder's record as an AG is stained based on a bull-crap charge and I hate it.
I don't hate the entire white race and I apologize for saying that I do. It is difficult for me to trust white people but that alone doesn't mean that they are ALL guilty of something. Many whites also are upset about Issa going after Holder. Let the peace abide therefore, and lets look forward from here.
Jenna, I still love you and I thank you for always having been a very good friend to me. Thank you!

Anyone who doesn't hold this do nothing, dsyfuctional, bunch of whiney babies in Congress in contempt is not playing with a full deck.
Congress has been a joke for several decades.....all rant and wail and no substance.....including both parties and all their fractions.
The scandals coming out of this administration are developing at a rate faster than ever before. Hard to keep up. Obama is both stupid and arrogant. A terrible combination.
It is finally time to dump this disgusting dog-eater and his wrethed minions once and for all.
Let's elect a REAL leader with morals and integrity. Mitt Romney for the next eight years.
Joseph
dog-eater and his wrethed minions
Questions: Does Bo know about this dog stew you are familiar with?
wrethed minions is indecipherable. What is it you are trying to report?
Joe: Mitt a "real" leader...you have got to be kidding! The flip flopping, backtracking, denying, unable to give any details or specifics....you know his statement "you'll know what I am going to do after I get elected".....
Or how about his "I don't know what I said I stand behind it" comment.
Mitt couldn't lead his way out of a paper bag.
Contempt vote set for Thursday. Interesting match-up with SCOTUS ACA decision.
By the way, can we vote to hold congress in contempt. With a 91% disapproval rating, should not be hard to round up the votes.
loyal: Not a concidence they are both on the same day.
No one I know or have talked to has any respect for Congress....they are useless....except for wiping the butts of their corporate, billionnaire masters.
