He was responding to Sen. Herb Kohl (D-Wis.) who asked Holder if he would consider serving a second term as attorney general if Obama is reelected.

“I stuck by my guns,” Holder continued. “I’ve been criticized a lot for the positions that I’ve taken. I’ve lost some. I’ve won more than I’ve lost. I’m proud of the work that I’ve done.

You’re a crook Eric and you must resign and face prosecution. Your rantings are pathetic and delusional.

Would that it were true.

If he's stuck by his guns, he'd be in Mexico now.

This SOB is an accessory to the murder of Border Patrolman Brian Terry. I'd bet he's real proud of that.

‘Holder: “I’ve stuck by my guns.”’

One of the more hilarious lines ever dropped in a dead-pan delivery.

You absolutely cannot make thuis stuff up. He was apparently dead serious as he uttered the words, not realizing the irony of the situation. His guns, his way, and totally unapologetic for the consequences. After all, there is an agenda to keep, and that is sacred above all.

Another reason I wish we could have settled for a true conservative instead of RINO Romney. We need a real president to purge the DOJ of it’s left wing tripe.

And prosecute the crap out of Holder.

Romney won’t do spit.

Hollder also said “I want to make it very clear that I am offering – I myself – to sit down with the Speaker, the chairman, with you, whoever, to try and work our way through this in an attempt to avoid a constitutional crisis, and come up with ways, creative ways, in which to make this material available. But I’ve got to have a willing partner. I’ve extended my hand, and I’m waiting to hear back,”

What the hec does he mean by avoid a constitutional crisis.

These people are like the untouchables

“I stuck by my guns,”

And by that, he means he's remained friendly with the leaders of the Mexican drug cartels that he helped arm.

But he was tracking them to find out who ended up getting them, and whom they killed...

What the heck does he mean by avoiding a constitutional crisis?

Stedman may have just tipped his hand that F'n'F goes right to the White Crib as part of the entire anti-gun agenda. The whole 'guns going to Mexico' thing was supposed to be a mechanism to show the American public that we needed more restrictive gun laws. It back-fired, misfired, and stovepiped when an agent tragically died.

Eric’s guns are actually boomarangs.

Only a few.

Mostly they are carried by the undercover FBI agents (on one 'side') and the undercover ATF agents (on the 'other side') and the undercover DEA agents (on 'another side') because the real gang members get better weapons from other countries.

Too bad those Border Patrol agents got caught in a firefight between undercover government agents from different agencies. Wrong place, wrong time.

Hopefully, Romney will learn from the big mistake BushII made.

You perjured yourself. You'll be found in contempt and impeached.

Where's the constitutional crisis?
