Attorney General Eric Holder’s tenure in the Obama administration may be coming to an end. At least eight members of Congress have now called on Holder to resign over the growing Operation Fast and Furious scandal.

Republican Reps. Vicky Hartzler of Missouri, John Mica of Florida, Quico Canseco of Texas and Gus Bilirakis of Florida each told The Daily Caller on Thursday that they believe Holder should step down now. The number of members of Congress calling for Holder to end his career in government because of Fast and Furious is now eight, a number which has doubled in one day.

Previously, Republican Reps. Joe Walsh of Illinois, Raul Labrador of Idaho, Blake Farenthold of Texas and Paul Gosar of Arizona called on Holder to resign.

All the rinos in the world could call for his resignation and it would mean nothing at all....absolutely nothing

Au contraire! Grassley has said that the investigation will probably go into 2012. Issa has subpoenaed Holder. If Holder doesn't resign, he'll probably be impeached, IMHO.

Except those in safe seats, up to 16 rats in the Senate looking to keep their seats in November 2012 will have to explain a vote not removing Holder from office.
