Getting news from over seas.

There is a key paragraph that just makes no sense

"Holder said that he recused himself from the making the controversial decision to subpoena the phone records of Associated Press journalists, saying that it was made by Deputy Attorney General James Cole. "

Why would he do that at the time?????????????????? Is there some connection we don't know about

Holder points the finger at his Attorney Colonel.

Sorry, race baiter... It doesn’t work that way. You’re his boss... ergo, YOU take the hit.

Bull$hit. The lower level drone is offered up as a sacrifice, then is quietly given a high paying do-nothing job for life.

Obama is going to HAVE to throw Holder under the bus pretty soon, no? And he knows where a lot more bodies are buried.
Popcorn, please.

Amazing!! Leaks were to be praised when they came from a Pubbie administration. Well, the shoe’s on the other foot now and the dems don’t like it much.

Holder might have recused himself, but by doing so, he's admitted that he knew it was going on. As head of the Justice Department, he's responsible for everything that happens on his watch. Even if he wasn't aware of any illegal activities by subordinates in his department at the time they occurred, he's just as culpable for what transpired. It's part of the paycheck.

There has never been a more childish, and immature administration in the history of this country. Each and every person from Obama on down sounds like a little kid who cries "it wasn't me," after being confronted by an adult.
