"Just say "I don't recall" - worked for me!!"

Just the facts:
On May 3, 2011, Attorney General Eric Holder appeared before Congressman Darrell Issa (R-CA) and the House Oversight Committee for questioning on Fast and Furious.
During questioning, Issa asked: “When did you first know about the program…called ‘Fast and Furious?”
Holder responded: “I’m not sure of the exact date, but I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks”
As I’ve written elsewhere, at the very moment Holder gave this answer, it was a safe bet he was being less than completely honest with the Congressional committee. But now the evidence, having become insurmountable in just the past 48 hours, makes it crystal clear that Holder lied to Issa and the House Oversight Committee.
Proof:
Reports CBS NEWS: “[Holder] was sent briefings back as far as 2010.” Briefings on Fast and Furious that is, beginning at least as early as July 2010. (In other words, Holder began receiving briefings on Fast and Furious “ten months before his May 3rd Congressional testimony.”)
And on October 18, 2010, documents show that Assistant Attorney General Lanny A. Breuer sent communiqués to Holder warning that indictments for Fast and Furious could come soon.
In response to this growing mound of evidence against him, Holder is now saying he “misunderstood that question from Congress [on May 3rd], that he did know about Fast and Furious, just not the details”

The Department of Justice Watches Over the Law But Who Watches the Watchmen?
The Department of Justice is America’s premier federal law enforcement agency. And according to J. Christian Adams, it’s also a base used by leftwing radicals to impose a fringe agenda on the American people.
A five-year veteran of the DOJ and a key attorney in pursuing the New Black Panther voter intimidation case, Adams recounts the shocking story of how a once-storied federal agency, the DOJ’s Civil Rights division has degenerated into a politicized fiefdom for far-left militants, where the enforcement of the law depends on the race of the victim.
Editorial Reviews
“Injustice is a whistleblower’s explosive exposé into the rancid world of Obama’s Justice Department. Adams shows how the institutional Left has turned the power of the Justice Department into a weapon against the rule of law.” —Andrew Breitbart
“Christian Adams is a truth-teller, whistle-blower, and American patriot. With great courage and investigative skill, this former Department of Justice attorney single-handedly exposes how Barack Obama and Eric Holder have systematically perverted the rule of law—for patently unjust, un-American, race-based ends. Adams witnessed first-hand the hijacking of the DOJ by radical leftist ideologues and interest groups.
Now he reveals everything: the full story of Holder’s coddling of New Black Panther Party poll thugs, corruption run amok in the Civil Rights Division, open borders advocacy, selective law enforcement, and much more. If you care about justice for all, Injustice is hands-down the most important book you’ll read this year.” —Michelle Malkin,
Also, Holder has maintained he had no knowledge of guns walking into Mexico via Fast and Furious, but the October 22, 2010 memo proves he not only knew, but was told not to worry about it because no one would be surprised at U.S. guns in Mexico.
What is House Speaker John Boehner doing today? If it’s anything other than initiating impeachment proceedings against Holder, then he’s wasting our time.
Article II of the Constitution gives Congress the power to impeach “the president, the vice president and all civil officers of the United States.” And it’s time to use that power.
Holder lied, and hundreds died via Fast and Furious."
“I accidentally hit ‘Delete All’ on my e-mail program.’......
This is a racist plot to destroy a good man; Eric Holder.
(Do I really need the sarc. tag?)

I hope he is impeached and the impeachment proceedings take place September-October 2012.
Paging Roger Clemens. Please pick up the white courtesy phone. . . . Roger Clemens . . .
Holder’s people will rise up!! Don’t cha know.
Wife: Did you have an affair with that woman?
Husband: No, I don’t know anything about her.
Later:
Husband : I didn’t lie. I just thought you wanted to know if I knew the details regarding that woman.
Wonder if they have stopped the gun running, Fast and Furious operation.
another shoe...
being thrown into the festering fire of frustration that fuels BLACK RAGE...

Fast and Furious is an International Incident. How soon before medico (proper spelling for mexico) asks for compensation for the victims? Has holder, zer0 and company put taxpayers on the hook for more money payouts?
