The Republican-run House on Monday asked a federal court to enforce a subpoena against Attorney General Eric Holder, demanding that he produce records on a bungled gun-tracking operation known as Operation Fast and Furious.

    Geesh legal action against the “head” lawyer to get him to comply with the law. Makes one’s head spin. Such a good little Chicago thug group.

    They have a hundred lawyers working full time trying to figure out how they can play it if the records do fall into the “wrong hands.”
    His ass is cooked and his days are numbered. If obama wasn’t covering his ass he would probably be eating jail food by now.

    He’s only got a free pass as long as Buckwheat is in office. After that he better have his cornhole sewn shut and his lips crazy glued cause he won’t pass a lie detector test.
