A trial before the House itself, followed by swift punishment, is just the thing Congress needs to reassert its primacy.
Remember, the Supreme Court only restricts the Executive ~ each House has total power that may be exercised at will. If Boehner won't do it he could be reminded of what happened to Georges Jacques Danton. Someone there will do the job that can be done to drive back the Executive's jack booted thugs.

A bank of solar cells on the roof attached by a heavy current carrying line to the headrest on the chair.
I love it.

Here's the way it works: The Times prints this story and some leftist blogger picks it up and posts a story on how the Times has a story about the possible use of 'inherent contempt' by the Repubs to put Holder in jail. Big Media pick it up and report it as a real story. Now the Repubs, who never even thought of this, look bad (as Big Media will make them look). "I know more than one way to skin a dog."

The House has the power to do whatever its Republican majority wants.
Time to start using it.

CSPAN could focus on Holder’s makeshift cell all night long.
