    good riddance

    I was swamped from noon to just now and caught footage of them walking out refusing to vote.
    I am at work now, who refused to vote? What was the vote?
    Fuck you. We're going to Costco.

      House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi encouraged members of her caucus to “walk out” on a floor vote to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress over his failure to comply with a congressional subpoena related to Operation Fast and Furious documents.

      “I’m very moved by the members of the Congressional Black Caucus who say they are going to walk out on this,” Pelosi said on the House floor Thursday afternoon. “Walk out on this. Perhaps that’s the best way.”

      “I commend [Michigan Democratic Rep. John] Dingell for his leadership,” Pelosi added. “So we can get to the bottom of this and we can offer some solace to [slain Border Patrol agent] Brian Terry’s family.”

      Dingell, the Terry family’s lifelong congressman, lost the trust of the Terry family on Thursday morning when he refused to support the contempt of Congress charges against Holder. The family said Dingell abandoned them.

      “I myself said I was coming to this floor to vote against this resolution,” Pelosi continued, before saying she has now flip-flopped and will walk out herself. “I want to join my CBC colleagues when we have the walkout after we have the debate on Mr. Dingell’s [resolution].”

      “I urge my colleagues to vote ‘no’ or not vote,” Pelosi added. “It’s Eric Holder one day, you don’t know who it is the next.”

      In response to Pelosi’s threats, House oversight committee chairman Rep. Darrell Issa said the reason why Holder is going to be held in contempt is “he’s custodian of the records” related to Fast and Furious that he’s refused to turn over.

        Funny. The Terry family wants to get to the bottom of it too, yet the shithead Dems are stonewalling everything all while claiming that they want to get to the bottom of it. I'm convinced that just about 100% of people in office with a D by their name need to be hanged and probably 97% of the ones with Rs do too.
        How do we forget ourselves? How do we forget our minds?

          Yeah that's exactly what I thought when I got to that part.

            As far as I'm concerned, it could be anyone in Obama's cabinet, any of the SC justices, or any one of those 535 motherfuckers in Congress and I wouldn't care a bit.

              Holder is home free. Justice Department won't prosecute.

                His Justice Department won't. I think they'll let it go until after the election then see what happens. If Obama gets re-elected, they will get special counsel. If Romney gets the nod, they'll prosecute under his administration.

                  I doubt it. If Barry gets reelected then I agree. But if Romney gets in, nothing will happen. It's one of those agreements you don't prosecute the previous administration

                    Obama was sure looking into prosecuting Bush.

                        True, he was, but you notice he did absolutely nothing. After screaming war criminal and promising all of this, he did nothing.

                          It's because nothing he did during those wars was illegal, none of it. Something like 500 illegal allegations against bush and the administration and not one of them was legitimate.

                            Oh I know. Bush did everything 100% legal. And Dems were all for it at first until they decided it'd work better to be against it. The man is a statesman.

                              Some of what he did was acceptable, he also ushered in the (second) largest domestic bills spending of all time. Remember how the media constantly painted Bush as being a dunce and an idiot? Let me ask you, does Obama look even dumber without ANY of the media cooperation? That says something doesn't it?

                                Considering we can see Bush's transcripts, we really have no idea how Barry can stack up
