Eric Holder found in contept of congress

[NOLA556]

while I'd like to jump for joy, there's something about this clip that I find disturbing in light of the recent racial double-standard thread (no media outcry thread).

while the white committee members seemed to be split down the middle yea vs. nay, not a single black committee member voted yea. coincidence?

U.S. Attorney General Found In Contempt Of Congress (First Time Ever!)

[Treaded]

I don't think it's so much a matter of race as the fact all of the black members of the committee are dims and the vote was split along party lines.  That being said it's time to put pressure on the congresscritters to vote yea when the house takes up the contempt vote.  This thing is bigger than Watergate and they're doing their damn best to hide it.

treason

one thing to do with traitors

Well if the Supreme Court comes out next Monday to "86" the mandate that all US Citizens must have insurance, Fast & Furious will be kicked to the back burners.

The US Congress will be starting summer vacation August 1 I think so things have to get going.

well keep in mind that they didn't try him for the fast/furious scandal itself, they tried him for contempt of congress. hopefully they nail his sorry ass with the whole scandal, but that's not what happened yesterday.

I think it pretty funny that Barry came out and declared Executive Privilege. Man O' man, Barry sure has had a bad month.

Since he did that the main stream media will have to start covering Fast & Furious and the folks who know nothing about it will. One more nail in Barry's coffin if you ask me.

There's still time for Barry to state he wasn't going after a 2nd term and Billary to step up to the plate.  [url=http://www.freesmileys.or

Just to clarify, I don't believe he was actually found in contempt of Congress on that day.  The Subcommittee just voted to have the Full Congress to vote on the Contempt Charge.  The actual contempt vote will happen soon. 

A contempt charge is the tiniest charge that he deserves, he deserves a lot more, but I have a feeling he will never get it.  Figures though, it so predictable, really.

[JohnyMac]

Yes you are 100% correct EJR. The vote before the entire House will be Wednesday I think.

Once the House does vote in contempt will the Seargent of the guards for the House arrest Holder? If so it should be a great show!

I was listening to Rush driving home Friday and he said,  "Holder Lied so Mexicans Died." I am going to make that my new signature.  [url=http://www.freesmileys.or

damn i didn't think of that. you're absolutely correct, that was just a committee hearing.  [img]http://www.arrse.co.uk/at and here I was all excited and shit lol

[CrystalHunter1989]

This whole thing's going the way of Watergate, and THAT took a Supreme Court ruling (when they didn't have anything better to do).

I don't like Rush that much, but I do LOVE that saying he made up.  Its great.   

That is what is supposed to happen, but with these corrupt bastards and all their cronies, anything is possible.  The sergeant of arms of the House may just let him go, you just never know these days, things are so  up!

haha its all good man, you had to pay really close attention to get that from the news agencies.  A lot of them never made the distinction.

Sounds like the Full Contempt of Congress vote my take forth on Thursday, 6/28/2012, I believe.

Have ya'll seen all the race hustlin' pimps coming out today, trying to change the narrative of Fast and Furious, saying that this is a race and politically motivated witch hunt?

I think one of them even said this was the same thing as a police officer doing a "stop and frisk" on a black man with not probably cause, just because he was black.  He said it was all about "the man" putting a black man in his place.   [img]http://www.arrse.co.uk/at

Man O' man Barry and his team are grasping at straws!  [img]http://www.arrse.co.uk/at

Here's the deal: I am on record saying that when you corner a critter the critter will do anything so expect anything. Barry isn't cornered yet however he is close. When the Supreme Court comes out and strikes down the Insurance Mandate due to it not being constitutional - Then Holder is held in contempt of court by the house; all bets will come off. In theory these two things could happen on the same day.

The cornered critter will do something...

? War with Syria
? Shoot out at the justice department
? Playing the race card
? Insert idea here

Man we are living history gents absorb what you can as your children will be asking your opinion when they reach their teen years.
 

[EJR914]

You are correct, JM.  We are living history right now, right here.  Your kids will be asking questions about this later.

So what was the vote. the healthcare   bs overshadowed this.

[EJR914]

I believe the vote will be happening today.  It has not occurred yet, but it will happen today.  NOT that it matters, though.  Nothing matters at this point.

Something tells me we'll get a "Two-fer" with Holder being let off the Hook and Obamacare being upheld.
It's like they're trying to provoke us.

Would not be surprised at all.  I also wouldn't be surprised if the Republicans are just as in on it, with "Boner" leading the charge of the Republicans just saying that we should stop the vote.  We shall see soon though.

Like I said, no matter what happens with this, it really doesn't matter.  Just another straw on the camel's back, and its about to break.  This is just a veneer, a side show distraction.  Nothing real or substantial will ever come from this investigation.  No justice, no catharsis, and no change to our government, not one bit.  It will just be business as usual.  Nothing will change.

Perfect description of the situation at-large.
Nothing will change until we change it.
