Senator calls for Holder's resignation amid challenges over leak probe

on the FNF front:

Senator calls for Holder's resignation amid challenges over leak probe, Fast and Furious | Fox News

Maybe enough stuff is ganging up on them to finally shake things loose. BOTH parties are pretty upset about the leaks of TS/SCI information and special access programs we have seen by the "hollywood" obama white house. Being president does not give one the right to be above the law--and the information which has been leaked from the get-go would have landed any regular schmuck in prison for LIFE.

This might be watergate II -- IF someone in the press takes it on. Breaking into an office (in order to help gain information) to win an election is small potatoes compared to intentionally releasing high level sensitive classified information (including sources and methods) in order to help win an election. There might well be enough dissatisfaction on all sides to appoint a special prosecutor. Holder MIGHT fall on his sword, but this stuff goes straight to the top.

Kudos to those who have been diligently pressing the FNF issue all along--and haven't given up or caved in to DOJ stonewalling. And also kudos to those who have come out in the democratic party--and all parties-- to condemn the obama white house for doing what is essentially espionage against the American people.

Wonder where John Dean is now ? Maybe we WILL see some congressional hearings and a special prosecutor.

It is all part of due process... The American will WILL prevail if pressed. I hope the people do not just roll over and take this one in the cheeks.

Nothing will come out of the Senate as long as the Dems have the majority. Congress, however, should do it's job and subpoena the reporters who wrote the stories containing the leaked info and imprison them until they tell who gave it up. That's how it's done. Not this political bantering back and forth. Do an end rush around your opponent and work backwards from the reporters.
It's not rocket science, but then again, maybe the Repubs really don't want to get to the bottom and just keep dragging it out until election time. Neither side is above playing politics with the truth.

No one was killed in Watergate, so far Fast an Furious is thought to have resulted in the deaths of nearly 200 people and one federal agent.

If that's your idea of a cricket what was the Valery Plame investigation?

America must de-activate the criminal force field from around Obama and the it fire at will;
Birth certificate, Logan act, Conspiring with Communists, Leakage of state secrets for political gain,
Conducting illegal wars without Congregational approval, using forged Documents: ie SS# and selective service mumbers, and forgery of a birth certificate. Accesories to the case 80 members of Congress who belong to the Democratic Socialist party which also violated the Logan Act.

Congress should just cut the funding to( all but the bare bones ) the DOJ ,after all they controll the purse strings, bet they'd get some Chit stirred up then . .......................and maybe some of their questions answered. they seem to forget they work for us.

TWO Federal Agents killed (Terry and Zapata) and the wounding of a third (Avila).

If enough people contact their Representative and DEMAND that Lickspittle Holder be impeached, perhaps Congress will get off the dime and do it.

I was watching some coverage and one reporter actually made metion that he thought he personally had a good idea who the reported was that was involved in releasing this sensative information. Where does the buck stop? Did the reporter steal the information of pass on information that was told in confidence or was it passed on purposefully by someone on the inside? I can not see how this would help Obama by leaking it. Since both the Dem's and the Republican's seem to be pretty upset about it I have a feeling that this is more of a case of some idiot leaking clasified information. It just seems more likely to me.
