Next we will see much genuflecting and false apologies as he steps down....but NO criminal charges will be filed.

But if it was one of us (not so) loyal subjects we would be in prison for a very LONG time.

When did LEO's and Govt officials become above the law and greater than simple citizens like the rest of us??

BKT, can we have a link for that letter, or a link to any kind of response from Holder or his people?

Here's a link from Mike Vanderboegh's site. Mike and David Codrea were the two who first broke this whole "Gunwalker"/Fast & Furious matter open. He does not post nonsense to his site; he's got way too much riding on this to let his credibility take a dive now. When/if I see a PDF with the Congressional letterhead, I'll post it.

It's not terribly diplomatic, is it? This is exactly the sort of letter you WANT politicians to write but which almost never get written. I loved it!

Just to echo what others have said: getting Holder to step down isn't enough. The dirt bag should be tried, and, if found guilty, tossed in prison like any of us would be for doing what he allegedly did.

Meanwhile, Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) suggested last week that Holder and the DoJ officials involved in Fast and Furious may have been accessories to murder. Several Republicans have also begun calling for Holder’s resignation.
I can live with that

Well if he is charged with Accessory, he will have no choice but to resign, so yea, that pretty much sums it up
