Holder Lashes Out at Media Over Fast and Furious
PJ Media ^ | November 30, 2011 | J. Christian Adams

Posted on 11/30/2011 9:15:32 AM PST by jazusamo

Attorney General Eric Holder blames the media for Fast and Furious and mounting calls for his resignation. No, he really does. More, including the audio, at the Daily Caller.

A couple of things today about this latest loss of cool. First, it isn’t just the Daily Caller covering the story as Holder wrongly claims. Every corner of the media is covering it. This sounds like something Press Harpy Tracy Schmaler at DOJ might be telling him, that only just one or two outlets are covering the story, but it isn’t true. She has a reputation of lying to the media, so maybe she also lies to her boss. She also has a reputation of lashing out at the media, like Holder did. (Memo to Press Harpy Schmaler: You’re blowing it, Tracy. This guy is getting clobbered on your watch. And your catty tactics are just antagonizing outlets.)

Secondly, blaming the Daily Caller ignores all the great work PJ Media has done on this!

Thirdly, it seems that every day more on the Hill are

calling for Holder to resign. The irony is that Holder’s resignation would do more for Obama’s reelection chances than almost anything else that could happen, apart from the worst economy in decades suddenly growing wings. Hatred for Holder is visceral across the country. He represents the worst and most base aspects of this administration. So if he goes, and a new, cleaned-up attorney general replaces him, it defuses a powerful weapon the GOP is going to use against Obama in the fall. Yes, Holder is going to be a major issue in the election campaign. Holder stepping down would undo those plans. Those calling for his resignation (and make no mistake, he is unfit for the office) need to realize that whomever replaces him will share the same ideology that led to the Black Panther dismissal and mirandizing terrorists. Meet the new boss…

If Holder resigns, we will get a shiny new radical in the office, without blemish. Of course it is a lot more fun covering and writing books like Injustice about the wounded, flailing Holder, but he’s a disaster for the country.

No doubt about it. Holder’s the crookedest most corrupt AG I can recall.

Lashes out at the media???

WHAT?

The corrupt MSM have closed ranks behind Holder and not reported a word about F&F. I bet 99% of the American public has never even heard of F&F — just the way the corrupt MSM aims to keep it.

Now, just try to imagine if the same thing happened in a Republican administration, say, like Iran-Contra affair which was substantially similar in a very broad sense, minus the death of an American border agent as a direct result of administration official actions.

All I’m getting at the site is a black block. Did the DOJ censor them? :o)

Replace nobama next November and Holder is replaced also.

Kill two dirty, slimy birds with one stone.

Notice to the Secret Service: “kill,” as used in the previous sentence, is meant rhetorically.

It wouldn't surprise me, Holder and thugs have been successful at stifling bad press.:-)

The link just worked for me though.

Holder, you treacherous, traitorous, marxist...get thee hence!

Out, out, I say, damn you!

As is your master, you are a dishonorable man, a man of wicked disposition & the indignant convictions of a fanatic who can`t face his own many inadequacies...or your own abject incompetence in the position which you hold.

It is a position of trust, of which you arew wholly lacking, and therefore not only inadequate for the job, but wholly unsuited.

In short, you are an a evil, spoiled, impudent, boy pretending to be an adult and doing a poor job at that.

Take the depraved Axelrod with you when you are sent packing and join him in that gray rock hotel you are destined for!

Your master will soon follow.

You need to be indicted, the entire lot of you, and failing that exiled to a hell hole of a communist nation like North Korea where your philosophies may fit in, but where they would treat you like the weakling and half pint your are and most probably dispose of you quickly, like any person throws out a bucket full of stinking, rotted trash.

Here, despite your evil and the harm you cause, you are nonetheless a laughingstock, and the WORLD is mocking you!

If there is any justice left in this nation...soon enough you will be out of office and imprisoned for your crimes.

ERIC HOLDER AND FAST AND FURIOUS

I just have a problem with burning a passel of children to death to save them from bad parents.
And NOT taking any responsibility for these actions.
Hope you are fine today Jaz

You’re right on, Waco was sickening and should not have happened, those children didn’t have a choice in being there.

Doing great and hope you’re the same.

To my memory a jury never had an opportunity to weigh in on the ‘bad parents’ charge but there were many persons both inside and outside the Waco compound that claimed the child abuse allegations were fictitious and made up to gain public support for ramming tanks through the walls of the compound.

No doubt though that the innocent deaths that day will forever be a black mark on American history.

The abuse claim is the one the gub mint used to go in in the first place.
Could have picked him up in town as he went in once in a while.
