Republicans don't have much of a basis to charge him, not to mention they have to contradict themselves. Wait and see.
Do you care about justice for Brian Terry, Jamie Zapata, and Larry Link not to mention 300+ Mexican citizens? Or is this all about keeping your party in power?

It's nice to know that the Demoncrats care more about party politics than they do about justice and law & order. Rules? Laws? Who cares ... they are for White Republicans right?
At least 17 Democrats had the courage to put decency before politics. Shame on the racist crybabies that walked out.

I guess what people are failing to realize is this is just more political theater. What happens when Americans realize this does nothing to solve the issue that caused this?

This vote was not over what happened between the ATF and Mexico. This is over documents that were not turned over to Republicans in Congress. The guy is still dead. Those directly involved have not been targeted.

This is just another attempt by conservatives to derail the American people's thoughts. This has nothing to do with jobs, yet they complain constantly that Obama is not concentrating enough on that issue. This was only done because it is an election year, and they want to make it seem that everything is the President's fault. The reality is that they are the ones who continue to make our future as a country bleak.

76.5% of Americans disapprove of Congress's job performance. This just adds to that disappointment.

Just more Republican Hackery. When you don't have any solutions to real problems you create distractions.

This has been building up for over a year and a half now.

Eric Holder had over a year to come clean ... he dident. Now he must face the consequences ... and no it's not just because he's Black. His actions led to the deaths of over 300 people.

No sour grapes with me. I want to know who is responsible for the murder of a border agent. I want to know who, when, why.
Obama and Holder have refused to produce documents to further the investigation.

That's a shame because most Democrats think petty partisan politics is more important than justice for over 300 people.

They have no honor. All they care about is getting in power and staying in power. Laws & rules mean nothing to them.

If you actually paid attention you'd realize they are following the law.

Lightbulb Will Holder's "Contempt of Congress" charge look like sour grapes to the public?

It will look like sour grapes because sour grapes is precisely what it is.

I am more then sure the poor parents of Brian Terry, who are no more closer today then 2 years ago, feel the same as you.

If that were my child, i too would not be taking this sitting down. And i would expect two years later, for some answers.

And the other innocent who were killed.

An innocent death taken, because someone in the administration dropped the f-bomb and Brian Terry were killed. Sure they all know more then they are admitting. This administration, you better believe it they do.

And that death needs some answers, no matter where the fingers are pointed at. That were my Son, i would be pissed as all hell.

How many times do you have to be told? Holder, and Holder alone created this "distraction". You friggin libs are so damn ****** You cant win by debate so you tell lie after lie and play stupid.


By the way, this contempt vote was more bi-partisan than Obamacare.
