I am watching this unfold now and the whole thing is incredibly tense. What I find astonishing is that George W Bush used his executive privileges more than any other president in history. These Repubs are accusing Obama of being excessive in the use of the executive privilege and that is simply not true. Yet these Repub knuckleheads are carrying on. I also read that they were asking for things that legally Eric Holder could not provide. That it was illegal for him to do so. This is just another witch hunt, vamping up as much as they can to make this current President and his administration look bad and to give them much grief.

I really think this has to be the worst batch of elected officials (republicans) I have ever seen. There whole mantra is "obstructionism" and "destroy" at all costs. They couldn't care less about this country or its people. I am so disgusted.

Obama (thru Holder) schemed to let guns walk out the back door undetected and untraceable. The DOJ/ATF didn't try to follow the weapons as they landed in Mexico and the hands of the drug cartels.

Holder should be held accountable for murder in my opinion. He is getting off easy with a Contempt of Congress charge.

It's amazing that the Obamazombies don't want the facts to become public.

Watch (via internet) the Obamazombies in Congress try to protect Holder (and Obama by extension)..........

How dare the elected officials who are responsible for oversight actually do what they were hired to do?! How "stupid" can they be?!

Richard Nixon is laughing his head off. This is a cover up, plain and simple. Executive privilege is only for national security, which this is not. This is an outrage, and the President is up to his neck in this.

This will fail a court challenge, but it may keep Holder's criminal activity undisclosed until after the election. That is all this is about.

This is easily the most corrupt administration in history. Unbelievable.

The comparison to Watergate is dead on. If a Republican president or his AG had done something like this, his administration would be under siege by the media. In Obama's case, main stream media is basically not covering the story. It's sickening.

Woodward and Bernstein made their careers by essentially destoying Nixon's ability to stay in office. The incentive for liberal reporters to bring down the Obama adminstration is just not there.

Right on brother COG......there is probably a paper trail of Obama being briefed..

The documents Holder is protecting likely name Obama.

COsFb, put your brain back in your head and quit playing with it. What little of your dick there is is further south. Your comment is "easily" the most retarded conclusion in history. But, since you and your fascist, drooling, mouthbreathing, TPunk clowns have somehow managed to find the "ON" switch to a computer, what would anyone expect? Unfortunately, a conclusion like this by you on this topic is very believable.

BTW, whirly, did you get any help from the RNC or the local TP bunch with your storm damage insurance scam? You're such a eff'n tooltard. Don't even know how to go about filing an insurance claim and figuring out who's a legit contractor, but you're on here pontificating about your political and philosophical "genius." HA! That's rich. I guess I could take your and your fellow travelers' "hard line" about the consequences for those who, through no fault of their own, have come upon hard times, but, nah, it's obviously hell being YOU and I'll just take a pass on yielding to the temptation. I don't think a hand up for you should be in the cards while you are down, but, unlike you, I won't kick you while you are there.

Hi RaggedyAndy! Welcome back! Still an ignorant asshole, I see.

I think Obama was in on the Fast and Furious scheme from day one. The whole thing smells like an Alinsky style operation that backfired, no pun intended.

What is it with you lefties? Do you just make stuff up to fit your world view?

In an email to The Huffington Post, an administration [Odumbo's] official noted that former President George W. Bush asserted executive privilege six times, while former President Bill Clinton did it 14 times.

You call it a "witch hunt". "Witches" are imaginary beings. One doesn't invoke executive privilege to hide "imaginary beings". One invokes executive privilege to hide embarrassing and/or illegal activities.

+1 It is beginning to look that way.

Oh, hell, now there's TWO at it. COsFb and IBH, close your mouths when you breathe, the excessive moisture coupled with the torrid visual is drawing a bunch of stalking gheys.....and I don't want to get caught in the crossfire.

Randy4Andy, it's obvious to everyone here that the only one in this thread not discussing the OP and who, therefore, 'appears' to be stalking is you!

An FYI, Randy4Andy, if you're looking our way for a little homo erotica, you need to go elsewhere; you won't find it here.
