Are the long knives finally getting unsheathed for Eric Holder?

[Da Coyote]

The guillotine.

Now.

[Michael.SF.]

Regarding 1)

Holder will willingly take one for the team. The other two points are valid.

[Gaffer]

Oh, he’ll go alright. But, he’ll leave as normally (so the Administration and Press will report) as any 2nd Term Cabinet member or high level agency functionary would.

Nope, nothing wrong with his actions - he’s just going back to the civilian world, no huhu here. Watch Obama to detail secret service protection for him.

[GeorgeWashingtonsGhost]

Holder can’t resign yet because HE’S GOT A LOT OF PAPER SHREDDING AND ERASING OF DIGITAL MEDIA TO DO!!!

[Huskrrrr]

Two words:

1) Resign

2) Pardon

[COBOL2Java]

West Wing insiders are trying to nudge Holder toward the door, his central crime being political maladriotness...

Ah! The Sandy Berger ploy - he's sloppy, sloppy, sloppy!

Holder is the Rook on the political chessboard who protects King Obama. Holder was never meant to be “ the chief Law Enforcement Officer of The United States”. His job, since his appointment, has been to protect the Democrat party from the various federal law enforcement agencies. That’s why the Democrats are having trouble. It takes a long time to train a new Democrat puppet to take over for Holder. In the spirit of bipartisanship that Obama always talks about, let’s see him appoint a Republican Attorney General. And I mean a real Republican.

I suspect Holder has and will be wielding the long knife. Dude's not just some pussy cabinet member. He's a made man.

[smoothsailing]

Holder will leave but it will be portrayed as a decision that had been announced far in advance.

‘Attorney General Eric Holder will honor President Obama’s request to stay into the second term but will remain on the job only “for about a year,” Fox News confirmed Monday.’

I wish his 'seat' would catch on fire!

Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise. Thanks.

People are crazy wanting to resign, bring him to the Hill once a week and ask questions till Obambi’s poll numbers are in the 30s. To make the dems sweat, drip drip drip every single scandal.

[musicman]

[klgator]

Some advisers to Mr. Obama believe that Mr. Holder does not manage or foresee problems...

It's not that, he CREATES them. Where to begin? 1. Oklahoma City bombing 2. Ruby Ridge 3. Waco 4. Kenneth Trenadue's death 5. New Black Panther Party 6. Fast and Furious 7. Wiretaps and many, many more

[Gabrial]

You can put a suit and tie on a criminal but it changes nothing. The prick is still a crook.

[Verginius Rufus]

Maybe Obama is thinking along the lines of the 442nd's motto, "go for broke."

If he can brazen out this scandal and keep Holder in place, it means his enemies are totally impotent.

He has the mindset of a Stalin or a Mugabe. The only thing that matters is imposing his will and winning. So his inclination will be to keep Holder at all costs.
