A cop got killed. Radical lefties tend to forget that little detail.
No it's not Holder, not even close. Let's cast our minds back to ancient times (2007-2008) when Democrats badly wanted to talk to Harriet Meyers, Josh Bolton and others including Karl Rove about a little remembered incident involving the politically motivated firing of several US attorneys, allegedly for refusing to conduct witch hunt investigations of various state democratic parties.
Practically every point in the current scandal match except the parties were on opposite sides of the same issues and, of course, the republicans refused to cooperate with the investigations AT ALL. Zero, zilch, nothing, republicans felt totally at ease ignoring a congressional investigation that has since been mostly proven to be correct.
Fast forward to this year, suddenly republicans find a lack of timely and total obedience to congressional subpoenas an abhorrent act, suddenly they are attacking executive privilege, all of the sudden there is no level of compliance that is sufficient.
When the vote was held to hold Meyers and Bolton in contempt for never showing up, the republicans got up and walked out exactly as the democrats did today, in fact the stories are almost identical except, of course, the actual contempt involved in the actions of the administration officials called before congress.
Compared to Holder releasing reams of documents and showing up when ordered, the actions of Meyers, Bolton, Rove, Gonzales, Bush and others dripped with open contempt for the right of congress to subpoena anyone in the executive branch for any reason whatsoever.
The stark difference in attitude between these two incidents is all the proof anyone needs that today's action by congress is an entirely partisan stunt that has no honorable reason that anyone would believe at this point.
I will conclude with a quote attributed to then minority leader John Boehner as he stalked out of the House in protest to the contempt vote:
"We will not stand here and watch this floor be abused for pure political grandstanding at the expense of our national security,"
How soon he changes where he stands.
This thread shows the shallow mind of an idiot liberal.
It compares a LEGAL move by the White House and Attorney General to fire US Attorneys not upholding the law the way they see fit, to a White House and Attorney General covering up fucking CRIMES across international borders.
The firing of seven appointed US attorneys with no good reason given was in itself an unprecedented act especially when the patriot act had just given the attorney general the power to permanently appoint replacements without senate approval, the whole thing stank like last week's fish.

Employees at will.
Liberals will not accept that holder's actions caused the deaths of so many people. To the liberal, those people would have died anyway,
Suppose Brian Terry were black and holder was white? That's why we have Trayvon Martin day but not Brian Terry day. It's why no white people would get up en masse and walk out of contempt hearing if the white attorney general refused to cooperate in the murder of a black man.
Once again showing that Democrats have no stomach for this stuff
Republicans love it....no matter how bad they look

Seconded. I mean, do they really show up at work and talk about how glad they are that Teddy Kennedy is dead, may he rot in hell, and "let him die!" and all that? No. They come here to show their ass.
We're so blessed. >.> Norly.
