NOTHING that California Democrats do surprises me now.

I am glad they picked Holder, though, who will probably be as ineffectual in this as he was as the Attorney General.

Does anyone remember Fast and Furious? Or the fact that he resigned after a movement was started to have him impeached?

From Wikipedia, quote:

Resolution proposing articles of impeachment

On November 14, 2013, Representative Pete Olson (R-TX), along with 19 Republicans, introduced a resolution proposing Articles of Impeachment against Holder. The Articles cited Holder for his alleged role in Operation Fast and Furious, refusal to defend the Defense of Marriage Act in court, failing to prosecute anyone involved in the IRS targeting of groups based on name and political theme, and for allegedly perjuring himself by stating that he had no knowledge of any potential prosecution of members of the media for disclosure of classified material. As of June 2014, there were 26 co-sponsors to the bill. [end quote}

Yep, GREAT choice! Seriously.

They hire the least competent boob imaginable? I guess he knows a lot of people and has friends and favors he can call in but he was always a suck up stooge that had limited intellect.

Kind of reminds me of Hillary hiring Wasserman Shultz.

I can understand it if you dislike his politics but this silly bit about his intellect is ludicrous.
