Holder confirmed as attorney general, 75-21

[dr_who]

Pretty sick.

[Sarah Barracuda]

He’s in good company, along with the other slime balls Obama has elected to his cabinet

[stratman1969]

It’s time to “name ‘em and shame ‘em”

[romanesq]

Another bloody bad day. This guy should have been stopped.
Yet there was no serious effort to derail him and his perjurious ways.

[My Favorite Headache]

The Senate on Monday confirmed Eric Holder to become the first black attorney general, capping a prolonged but ultimately smooth confirmation process that saw little of the partisan fireworks some Republicans had hoped for.

[A_Former_Democrat]

75-22.

I voted nay.

[South Hawthorne]

Great News!!!

Unless, of course, you're an intelligence officer who used rough interrogation techniques in the service to our country, that is.

Really, it's just prudent to question how your actions will be viewed in the future if the country is overtaken by America hating, muslim apologist, socialists.

[trumandogz]

Obviously, the vote was along party lines.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Somewhere, Marc Rich is smiling...

[bergmeid]

Another friggin’ success story. Gawd.

[Old Sarge]

Names. I want names.

[laweeks]

Hey, when you have a Dummycrat party full of con artists, thieves, tax cheats, draft dodgers, and crooks, the pickings can be mighty slim. Ah, yes . . . the era of corruption is OVER . . . HAH!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

I forget. Is he one of the tax cheats, lobbyists, Marxist activists, or just another one of the scheister lawyers?

[Liberty Valance]

7 months ago: Caroline Kennedy (L), daughter of late US president John F. Kennedy, walks with former deputy attorney general Eric Holder on Capitol Hill in Washington on June 25, 2008.

[Billthedrill]

The Second Amendment is now officially under siege. Again.

[FlingWingFlyer]

It’s always good to have a punk as the Attorney General.

Thank you

Good! Bring it on.

[TheConservativeParty]

Gird Your Loins People!

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

D. All of the above.

The Clinton retreads will now get a chance to completely screw up what they missed the first time. When Obummer promised change, the people who adored him assumed it meant for the good. At least now they get to find out the hard way.

[traditional1]

It's become obvious now that Affirmative Action coupled with "white liberal guilt" have reached the point we expected: people are afraid to cast an accurate negative comment or point out the hypocrisy of ANY black person in politics, for fear of being targeted by the MSM and others as "racist".

If a black is nominated, they are voted in.....

Get used to it; that's how we got The Messiah, who is not even a proven ELIGIBLE candidate for the office he was elected to, and this black affirmative program will only accelerate under this process and fear of non-Politically Correct conduct.

[Wild Irish Rogue]

It’s pretty revolting that the Senate only had 21 members
( I assume all Republicans ) who refused to confirm Holder as the highest law officer in the country.
What kind of Senator thinks Holder’s shady past is fitting for confirmation ?
Wait , I know...the same kind that confirms a tax cheat as Treasury Secretary.
And what kind of POTUS keeps nominating these crooks and bums ?
What’s next for Obama -Al Zawahiri as head of Homeland Security ?

[Las Vegas Ron]

Of course they had to confirm him....gotta make sure Blago never gets to trial

[autumnraine]

Reckon I should go drill that hole in my floor to hide my guns, eh?

[Cicero]

So, the Dems name another criminal attorney general. They are nothing if not consistent. And the press will say nothing about that aspect.

What does 21 signify? About half the Republicans voted against it, and half were in favor? Great.

[autumnraine]

Are you sure that isn’t Stedman?? I think someone kidnapped Eric Holder and Oprah replaced him with Stedman. Have anyone ever seen them in a room together.

[Southack]

And now the countdown for Holder firing all GOP Fed prosecutors...followed by the news media bragging on 0bama for the firings as they conveniently forget how they blasted Bush for firing just 6 of them (2 of whom were GOP’ers!).

[Nervous Tick]

>> Reckon I should go drill that hole in my floor to hide my guns, eh?

What guns? You don’t have any guns.

(I used to have one old shotgun, but it fell off my boat into the bay while I was fishing.)

[nhwingut]

20 Repubs voted to confirm

Let the guessing begin...

McCain
Grahamnesty
Maine Twin1
Maine Twin2
Corker
Specter
Voinovich

???????????

[DemforBush]

From Michelle Malkin’s site, the 21 Nays:

Barrasso
Brownback
Bunning
Burr
Coburn
Cochran
Cornyn
Crapo
DeMint
Ensign
Enzi
Hutchison
Inhofe
Johanns
McConnell
Risch
roberts

[Nervous Tick]

Thank God my two (TX: Cornyn, Hutchison) voted No. I hope it’s a sign they’re getting the message about posing as conservatives vs. voting like conservatives.

We’ll see when Dasc-hole comes up for approval, not to mention the welfare orgy I mean bailout.

So, John Kyl voted “yes”? Thought he was an up-and-coming conservative leader. Guess not.

[basil]

I don’t have any guns, either. Don’t look at me!

[MamaLucci]

Yep.....SOS Hillary Clinton, Treas Sec Geitner, AG Holder, soon to be Sec of HHS Daschle.......Obama's den of thieves.

Richardson must REALLY be toast, to not be worthy of this company....

McCain and Graham voted YEA! to Holder as Attorney General.

Republican Commissar’s Warning: By joining this ping list, you may be subjected to the delusional rants and ramblings of McCainiacs, of "moderate" Republicans, of pragmatic conservatives resigned to voting for the lesser of two Democrats, and of countless GOP shills who simply want to meet a new overlord.

[Nervous Tick]

>> I don’t have any guns, either.

Of course you don’t. Guns are bad news. Only mean people have guns. And mean people suck; it said so on a bumper sticker I saw today.

[Moose4]

By process of elimination, we see it’s the usual suspects kissing butt on the left side of the aisle, again. McQueeg, Pandsey, etc.

}:-)4

[KansasGirl]

Atleast both my senators voted no.

[deannadurbin]

Should read: RABID PIT BULL CONFIRMED AS ATTORNEY GENERAL

[Cindy]

Yep.

[Candor7]

BOHICA.

Tighten the grip on your guns and buy ammo now.

There will be so many regs and taxes on guns and ammo that prices are going to go through the roof.

If the Dems can't ban them, they are going to make gun owners PAY. Thats the slant this time.

[rabscuttle385]

Ping to post 36. Admiral McQueeg and his lady-in-waiting, Lindsay Grahamnesty, have struck again, in their never-ending quest for the perfect quart of strawberries.

[Nekman]

It's time to give the Republican party an enema!!!!

[mathluv]

I was going to make the same comment.

[deannadurbin]

YAY! I want John Thune to run for President. He’d beat the pants off Obama big time in 2012.

[nhwingut]

Good to see ol’ Saxby “Help me in the runoff so I can continue to stand up for conservative values” Chambliss sided with the libs.

These people are shameless.

[rabscuttle385]

So, John Kyl voted “yes”? Thought he was an up-and-coming conservative leader.

Only if you believe the King of the RINOs, Juan McQueeg.

[Candor7]

21 heros out of 100.

Not bad.

We got the rest of these gurly men dem fags and RINO senators surrounded!

[Night Hides Not]

Thank God my two (TX: Cornyn, Hutchison) voted No. I hope it’s a sign they’re getting the message about posing as conservatives vs. voting like conservatives.

Kay had to...Perry would have beaten her over the head with that vote next year.

I fully expect KBH to vote as a rock-ribbed conservative on every issue this year. Otherwise, she won't stand a chance in the Republican primary next year.

Given a choice between KBH and Rick Perry, I'll be voting "none of the above."
