AG Eric Holder To Announce Resignation Today!

Dept of JustUs Atty Gen Eric Holder is scheduled to hold a presser announcing his resignation today at 4pm.

Oh Happy Day!

Of course, his exit will only be complete once a successor has been confirmed by Congress. That will likely keep him around until next year. He definitely won't be gone before the mid-term elections.

Yes, much easier to be off the grid.

Do not celebrate too early or too eagerly, he might be replaced by someone even worse.

More info coming out...the timing of this announcement is suspect as a Federal Judge this week ruled the Just Us Dept must release documents relating to the Fast & Furious scandal. Unfortunately, even with the contempt of Congress charge against him, it's unlikely Holder will ever have to personally pay for his involvement in this scandal.

Re: AG Eric Holder To Announce Resignation Today!

This was a memorable moment as I was watching the hearing when this occurred. This is what I will remember most about Eric HOlder.

"You don't want to go there, Buddy." - threatening Gohmert.

Watch him lean back in his chair while he says it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ay9eThmzp1Q


“For many years now, I have been calling for Attorney General Holder’s resignation,” Gohmert said in a statement. “Not only has he lied before members of Congress and, ultimately, been held in contempt, he has obfuscated the truth and been the most partisan, partial, prejudiced, and self-pitying attorney general in my lifetime, including [Nixon Attorney General] John Mitchell who went to jail for his crime.”

“As a former judge who has questioned Holder numerous times before the House Judiciary Committee, it is frustrating to seek the truth and receive dishonesty and arrogance from the chief law enforcement officer of the United States government.”

Gohmert went on to detail Holder’s abuses of power.

“Additionally, he has prosecuted more people for leaking, which sometimes is an effort at whistle blowing, than all other attorneys general added together,” Gohmert said. “He has not only failed to investigate crimes and potential crimes occurring in this administration, he has been the cover-upper-in-chief and will be sorely missed by those in the administration like Lois Lerner who want to disobey the law and flaunt it. It is my sincere hope that the Obama administration will appoint an attorney general who is reputable and truly desiring to uphold law and order for all Americans– not just cater to this administration’s whims and ideology.”

I also read they were advertising for a replacement on Craigslist.

Seriously!

I am pretty sure he anticipates the Republicans will take the Senate and then he will have to deal with them. I'd run too. LOL!
