(CNSNews.com) - The House Ways and Means Committee voted 23 to 14 today to refer former IRS official Lois Lerner to Attorney General Eric Holder for possible criminal prosecution.

In a contentious open-to-the-public hearing that lasted only few minutes, the House Ways and Means Committee voted this morning to immediately go into a closed session to discuss a letter proposed by the committee’s majority to refer former Internal Revenue Service official Lois Lerner to the Justice Department for possible criminal prosecution.

When Ranking Member Sander Levin (D.-Mich.), seeking to make a point of order, repeatedly interrupted Chairman Dave Camp’s (R.-Mich.) attempt to start a roll-call vote intended to take the committee into closed session, Camp told him: “Just chill out. What is the gentleman’s point of order?”

Fact is, Holder knew damn well this was coming. If he didn’t already have a solid plan to squash it, he would have already sold her out somehow. The fact that they both still have their feet firmly planted tells us that the only people who will be punished are the American citizens. There will be no justice, there will be no accountability. This administration has perpetrated crime after crime and have never been called to the mat. They are pretty much untouchable and they know it. There is only one way left to properly deal with them. Use your imagination...

Which also explains his attitude, fearless contentiousness and open taunts. I so dearly want this man and his 'friends' to pay. Grrrrrr...

If the Republicans win the House and Senate and Obamas approval numbers continue to fall, the first domino to fall in the Obama Administration is going to be the impeachment of Eric Holder and his criminal referral

She broke the law. There’s not doubt about that part of the case... and she lied under oath. No question about that... it’s just a question of time.

That is really funny! Referring a criminal to be tried by her partner in crime.

The only thing funnier would be if they asked the FBI to take part in the investigation.

Or asked haters at the Southern Poverty Law Center do mediation.

Oh, better yet, have Al Sharpton to the commentary for MSNBC... we all know how trustworthy that criminal is...

The attorney general is also subject to imprisonment by the House of Representatives, directly and solely, for already being held in contempt of Congress. No other action will get results. Imprison Holder, then either give him Lerner as a jailmate or send her referral to the acting attorney general along with a note pointing out how much room they have for more prisoners, or at least would have if they locate ‘Boehner’s Black Hole’ in the certified racist free space currently occupied by The Congressional Black Caucus.

Exactly. Nothing but a sham.

There is no law here now. Only intimidation when it serves this regime.

These boys in the house are just pissin’ into the wind.

Campus radical seizes Attorney General's office.. defies Congress.

This is like a sequel to Live and Let Die. Kananga and his henchmen are in charge.
