In Congress, blowing gunsmoke - The Washington Post

:lolbron: at some Republicans attempting to dub this "Murdergate"



There is something charmingly futile about House Republicans’ move to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress.

Even if the full House follows the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform’s vote Wednesday to hold him in contempt, the decision about whether to prosecute him will be left to a Justice Department run by . . . Eric Holder.

In deciding whether to prosecute himself, Holder would have to consider whether there are enough prison cells to incarcerate all the other people who are contemptuous of Congress in a country where only 15 percent of the public has a favorable view of the body. And Wednesday’s contemptible antics won’t help that statistic.

Republicans didn’t have much on Holder — it’s one of those perennial disputes about how much the executive branch needs to divulge to the legislature — so they did what sensible people usually do when they have an honest disagreement: They accused the attorney general of being an accessory to murder.

“On the night of December 14, 2010, in a canyon,” Chairman Darrell Issa (Calif.) began dramatically, border agent Brian Terry was in a firefight with Mexican bandits. “A bullet pierced agent Terry’s aorta, and he died in that canyon.” The chairman went on to say that “the committee has uncovered serious wrongdoing by the Justice Department” in the matter and that “the Terry family is still searching for answers...

yeah basically they let guns go over teh boarder to trace them back to the buyers and big fish but then lost track of them, one of the guns killed that BP officer, i sorta see why they are pissed but it's more a political ploy than anything.

Issa is slime. He and most of these others don't give a fukk about the dead agents. They're interested in scoring cheap points.

My man, how the fukk do you know that?

Regardless of his motivations, why are you even concentrating on that in this situation? Shouldn't you be more concerned over the obvious criminal acts by Holder and Obama, here? Shouldn't you be supporting justice? Why are you so concerned about Isaa. Don't you think a better response is ''Yea, that F&F sh!t was some real dirtball sh!t, Holder is obviously lying and indeed deserves to be under the jail.'' Then, say something like, ''fukk that Issa dude, though.''

Y'all n!ggas are some real douchebags. Wayyyy too caught up in this Dem/Rep show. Sh!t is sad.

Everyone knows that Darryl Issa is using this as a political ploy but that doesn't matter because 99.95 of everything that all politicians do is in service to political grandstanding.
The F&F program was a total clusterfukk and just because the guy investigating it is an a$$hole doesn't change the fact that someone needs to be held responsible.
I am still confused as to why Eric Holder is such a shytty AG and why he didn't just come clean when the who F&F thing got screwed up. All he is doing now is creating a distraction during a presidential election season with a subject that doesn't make the Obama admin look good at all.

With all the corruption at the DOJ and the rest of the federal government, there is a ton of things that could be investigated. I wouldn't have a problem with this investigation, if he was serious about cleaning up the DOJ. But we all know that's not the case. Issa is a piece of shyt just like the majority of the GOP

Holder is a crook (see: Mark Rich pardon) and F&F was a disaster and should be investigated, but part of me loves the way he swags on cacs and makes them mad.

Yeah he really swags on the cacs


"Watches blatant and admitted mortgage signing fraud"

"Lets everybody get away with it"



He's really swagging hard alright :beli:
I'm talking about the way he carries himself in interviews and congressional hearings bruh...not his policy moves. I already said he's a crook. He's under the gun now, but usually his swag is on a billion when he's getting grilled.

he almost has that dikk chenney, "I'll shoot you in the face and make you apologize to me" feel to him.

I think he's a crook but a small part of me enjoys a dem finally doing dirt and pretending like it don't matter. ... :( just read that and it sounds bad.

Exactly...that dikk Cheney swag. If you ever listen to right wing talk radio, he be having them FURIOUS. Every time I switch to Michael Savage or Mark Levin in my car they're screaming at the top of their lungs about how he's a tyrant and a racist.

Issa himself has been caught doing things very much in the same league as Holder's list of fukkery. Just because I agree that Holder has done bad things, doesn't mean I'm going to ride with the bad faith argument for justice, because what the Repubs want isn't justice. as I think you would agree. This has nothing to do with Democrats to me.
