During his testimony about Operation Fast and Furious before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform last week, Attorney General Eric Holder said that he still hasn't discussed the deadly scandal with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano or President Barack Obama.

Holder's admission that he hasn't taken the initiative to discuss how the government should handle this scandal came during an exchange he had with Utah Republican Rep. Jason Chaffetz.

"I had an opportunity in the Judiciary Committee to ask you questions on Dec. 8, 2011," Chaffetz said when questioning Holder on Thursday. "I had asked you if you had spoken to President Obama, Secretary Clinton or Secretary Napolitano. You said that you had not spoken to either of those three about Fast and Furious. Is that still true today?"

So what do these kids do all day?

Holder spends all his time using the DOJ as the President's attack dog against states that step out of line.

A major political scandal "brewing" and he doesn't discuss it with his boss?
He must believe we're as freaking stupid as he is, if he expects anyone - except the usual true believers - to accept that!

Why hasn't Obama demanded to see him over this? there is no accountability.

Maybe none of his aides included it on one of those midnight memos he supposedly is always reading.
As out of touch and isolated as he is, he may not have a clue as to what's happening/sarc.
I have no problem believing he's clueless.  ::)

I have no problem believing he's divine, and therefore exempt from all criticism.

I want to see him walk across the Potomac - and not use any of the bridges - first/sarc.

He seems to be underestimating this, thinking it's not going to be a big scandal. Same mistake Nixon made.

He's probably right. The media is certainly complicit.

True Harry, history proves the point, just look at the fraud of ACORN and how the media buried it.
Remember how the MSM vilified James O'Keif when he exposed the corruption?

Yeah, they made him the criminal. The libtards still bring it up every time the subject is discussed.

Yep, when you have the media covering for you, you can always resort to deflection.

I did a search for GOP fraud, then one for Dim fraud and was dumbfounded how many times the media reports on one incident by the right and buries any by the left.
The evidence of corruption on the left is mind boggling...

Not to go off topic, but here is just a fraction of some of the stories the left quickly buried over the years.

Edward Kennedy – Democrat – U. S. Senator from Massachusetts. Pleaded guilty to leaving the scene of an accident, after his car plunged off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island killing passenger Mary Jo Kopechne.

DNC – The Federal Election Commission imposed $719,000 in fines against participants in the 1996 Democratic Party fundraising scandals involving contributions from China, Korea and other foreign sources. The Federal Election commission said it decided to drop cases against contributors of more than $3 million in illegal DNC contributions

because the respondents left the country or the corporations are defunct.

Sandy Berger – Democrat – National Security Advisor during the Clinton Administration. Berger became the focus of a criminal investigation after removing highly classified terrorism documents and handwritten notes from the National Archives during preparations for the Sept. 11 commission hearings.

Robert Torricelli – Democrat – Withdrew from the 2002 Senate race with less than 30 days before the election because of controversy over personal gifts he took from a major campaign donor and questions about campaign donations from 1996.

Sowande Ajumoke Omokunde – Democrat – the son of newly elected U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore, was booked on charges of criminal damage to property for allegedly slashing tires on 20 vans and cars rented by the Republican Party for use in Election Day voter turnout efforts.

Daniel David Rostenkowski – Democrat – U.S. Representative from Illinois. Indicted on 17 felony charges- pleaded guilty to two counts of misuse of public funds and sentenced to seventeen months in federal prison.

Charles Coles Diggs, Jr. – Democrat – U.S. Representative from Michigan from 1955 to 1980. Convicted on eleven counts of mail fraud and filing false payroll forms- sentenced to three years in prison.

George Rogers – Democrat – Massachusetts State House of Representatives from 1965 to 1970. Member of Massachusetts State Senate from 1975 to 1978. Convicted of bribery in 1978 and sentenced to two years in prison.

Don Siegelman – Democrat Governor Alabama – indicted in a bid-rigging scheme involving a maternity-care program. The charges accused Siegelman and his former chief of staff of helping Tuscaloosa physician Phillip Bobo rig bids. Siegelman was accused of moving $550,000 from the state education budget to the State Fire College in Tuscaloosa so Bobo could use the money to pay off a competitor for a state contract for maternity care.

John Murtha, Jr. – Democrat – U.S. Representative from Pennsylvania. Implicated in the Abscam sting, in which FBI agents impersonating Arab businessmen offered bribes to political figures; Murtha was cited as an unindicted co-conspirator

Gerry Eastman Studds – Democrat – U.S. Representative from Massachusetts. The first openly gay member of Congress. Censured by the House of Representatives for having sexual relations with a teenage House page.

James C. Green – Democrat – North Carolina State House of Representatives. Charged with accepting a bribe from an undercover FBI agent, but was acquitted. Convicted of tax evasion in 1997.

I saw some libtard on another site (not THAT other site) saying that we were just pissed at having a Black AG. I guess the race card applies to all branches of government now. ::)
