Justice Department will not prosecute Attorney General Eric Holder
Saturday, June 30, 2012 2:15 EDT
The US Justice Department said it would not prosecute Attorney
General Eric Holder over his refusal to hand over documents on a botched
gun-running operation to Congress, even after the House of
Representatives held him in contempt.
In a letter to House Speaker John Boehner, Deputy Attorney General
James Cole said the Justice Department had “determined that the attorney
general’s response to the subpoena issued by the Committee on Oversight
and Government Reform does not constitute a crime.”
“Therefore the department will not bring the congressional contempt
citation before a grand jury or take any other action to prosecute the
attorney general,” Cole wrote.
Justifying
his refusal, Cole cited a “longstanding position” of the Justice
Department not to prosecute officials for withholding documents
“pursuant to a presidential assertion of executive privilege.”
Cole reminded Boehner that former Republican presidents Ronald Reagan
and George W. Bush had asserted the same privilege in their dealings
with Congress.
The refusal came after US lawmakers on Thursday took the historic and
controversial step of holding Holder in contempt over the gun-tracking
operation known as Fast and Furious.

Temlakos~POTL~PWCM~JLA~☆ 2012/06/30 19:10:59It's Only Murder And Illegal Drugs. What's The Problem ?+12Murder, illegal drugs, and the desire to validate some highly dubious statistics. "Ninety percent of all the guns that the Mexican gangsters have come from America!"
And the people said, "Bunk!"
And the government said, "Oh, yeah? We'll show you!"
And so they "threw down" 2000 guns on the Mexican side.
And then they said, "There! Yasee? What did we tell you? Now give up those guns!"
And somewhere in the process, a good man, just doing his duty, died in the line of that duty.





















Obama/Clinton/Holder/Marc Rich and the Communist Weather Underground Pardons

Holder's role in the pardons of BLA comrades/Weather Underground members, Rosenberg and Evans
As Deputy Attorney General, Holder, as The Washington Post explained, 'was the gatekeeper for presidential pardons.' Indeed, Holder was a key figure entrusted with the task of vetting the Clinton administration's 176 last-minute pardons in January 2001. The beneficiaries of those pardons included such notables as former Weather Underground members Susan Rosenberg (who was involved in the deadly 1981 armed robbery of a Brink's armored car) and Linda Evans (who had used false identification to buy firearms, harbored a fugitive, and was in possession of 740 pounds of dynamite at the time of her arrest in 1985). Disgraced President Bill Clinton pardoned both women in January 2001. Don't forget Israeli dual citizen-swindler Marc Rich(Reich), who escaped justice with billion's to Israel.
There is no "choice" they are two sides of the same coin. They are all related!

Better watch this, blood line is more important then anything to them.
would do more than attract some media for a few days and then be shelved as things of importance moved on to center stage? This ploy has been around for more than 100 years, appearing in nearly every election year. Ho Hum.
Besides, the military-industrial corporations make hundreds of $Billions of profits each year from this "foreign aid" and covert operations. It is just one of several such games we engage in, all in the name of making some money for the players.
Do I trust congressional leaders with a single digit approval rating who's stated sole purpose is to make sure Obama fails at any cost (and America along with him if need be) with vital information about an ongoing investigation? NO. They will f-it up any way they can. It's what they do, they're Republicans.
Remember when Alberto Gonzalas just didn't show up for a congressional hearing? Of course you don't --the so called "liberal media" didn't spend much time on it.
Gonzalas attorney firing scandal... Congressional hearing... doesn't show up.. Gets away with it. America outraged over death of Anna Nicole Smith.
Holder fast and furious... congressional hearing... answers questions... gives up 7000+ document.... Burn him! He's a witch!
And it's not "selling" or "running guns" what they did --what the WHOLE thing is about is NOT confiscating some guns they could have --in hopes to get up the ladder to the bigger fish just like they do with undercover drug dealers ---anyone who's seen Miami Vice knows how this works... It's not some sinister Obama plot to impose communism and shira law at the same time while he secretly takes your guns, outlaws Christmas and send you to a FEMA camp.
Could you possibly think of a better use for this kind of money ?
