Fast and Furious did not start until AFTER holder became AG. These documents specifically mention Fast and Spurious. No way can he claim they were before his time. Before him, the op was GUNRUNNER. And they already tried that to absolve obegone. Doesn’t work.

You gotta wonder just how far they can go with yet another lie after lie.

Seems like forgetting one point of a meeting ended Scooter Libby in prison, so same standard applies to Holder.

I noticed that, lol. There are a few tiny wrinkles in their defense. They need a little time to scramble and brainstorm! Give them another 12-24 hrs. They can always fall back on, “Upon further reflection....”

I seriously don;t think they HAVE reflections. We need crosses, holy water, silver, garlic, and wooden stakes.

I believe that there is an unwritten “gentlemen’s” agreement between all outgoing and incoming administrations for the incoming administration not to investigate their predecessor. I can easily see this sort of agreement existing as otherwise the incoming administration would have the resources of the entire government on its side, which could really be abused.

Unfortunately for us, this means if we want people held accountable for F&F, we need to make sure it happens now, not after 2012.

Just Like Himmler and the SA, with Earnst Rohm. Make the scapegoat pay. In this matter we actually may see more mysterious deaths. Then we know whats going on. Sorry more Nazi analogies. Just to many similaities.

Obama has one way out of this if Issa is a true pitbull. We will find out if Obama has anything left in him or is a complete puppet. Survival dictates he has to clean house unless he is the total puppet I think he is. I don't buy into the whole Soros puppet master BS. I don't have a clue who the true master is. It could be frightening to have that answer.

“The Justice Department told CBS News that the officials in those emails were talking about a different case started before Eric Holder became Attorney General. And tonight they tell CBS News, Holder misunderstood that question from the committee - he did know about Fast and Furious - just not the details.”

LIARS ALL! The memos are full of details so it’s impossible to know of the program and not the details.

He will only be brought up on perjury charges if they suspect he really used HGH— Fast and Furious? Not that important. /S

I tend to agree with you on his actual capabilities, but they have placed him in a leadership role, at the top of the heap. His intent, along with those pulling his strings, those abetting him, anmd those underneath him in that misbegotten heiarchy, is to detroy our constitutional republic.

But to the DNC-MSM Media, it’s a smaller scale offense than baseball players using steroids.

Issa is hardly a coward and the leadership and candidates are quite right to leave him to his job. He is doing this by the numbers and when things are done correctly and with care it is far less likely to have gotten it wrong. The results would be more devastating.
