Today’s word is “bipartisan”.
Say it again and again.
Bipartisan!

Who cares? Since the rule of law was thrown out by SCOTUS today, what is the point?
Our Republic is dead.

I guess the barbecue strategy didn’t work as well as Holder hoped.

In my view, if they didn't vote, it's the same as saying they support the measure but were afraid to go on record.
This is some what of a big deal but I've read there's been no enforcement of a contempt citation since 1934 when a Commerce Secretary was 'imprisoned' at a DC-area hotel.
I believe the worst penalty that can incure is a year in jail and a $100,000 fine.

Not sure about the two Republicans voting no. LaTourette (OH) is rated B- by GOA. Rigell (VA) is NR by GOA.
NRA had encouraged ALL members to vote YES to find Holder in contempt. Hence, 17 Dems did.
Don't understand why these two Republicans sided with Democrats...

The two Republican "no" votes were Reps. Steve LaTourette (Ohio) and Scott Rigell (Va.). RINOs.

Are there any Democrats anywhere who are concerned about Obama and what he is doing and has done?

So, this is pretty much how today's events played out...
Republicans (and the country) took a major blow from a horrible ruling from the USSC, and they stood there, rebutted it, and then went back to work
Eric Holder, the scumbag AG who has been subverting Congress for over a year on what his department did in the 'Fast and Furious' scandal, and the Democrat weenies picked up and ran away, because they were not getting their way, claiming 'partisan politics' is the reason behind this.
I am sorry, but the Dems are a bunch of cry-babies, who run away every time they do not get their way. This just kills me that they get away with this nonsense..

One Supreme Court vote doesn’t kill the Republic.

Indeed - they wouldn’t want to be called “racist” or something...
