"Hey! I see something!"
How ironic that one of the biggest revelations against the Dept. of Justice and the attorney general in the Fast and Furious scandal has been unearthed by part of the mainstream media, in this case, CBS. Back on May 3rd of this year, Eric Holder testified before Congress under oath that the first he heard of ATF's Fast and Furious operation was a few weeks previous.
Apparently not.
Documents obtained by CBS News indicate that Holder was receiving correspondence and memos regarding Fast and Furious as far back as July of 2010.

Can you say, "perjury"? July 2010 is hardly a few weeks previous to May 2011 (by my calendar).
"The Justice Department responded to this new information by saying that Holder receives many updates, memos and briefings daily and doesn’t always read them all — even if official records show he was informed of the intimate details of a case."
Here is the Pajamas Media report on the revelations by Bob Owens. Do you really think, this was lost in the minutia of the daily paperwork sent to Holder's desk?

It is now past time for Holder to resign, and if he doesn't, President Obama should fire him. How can Obama stand behind him now?
It is also high time for a special prosecutor to be appointed to investigate whether Holder committed perjury. I nominate Inspector Clouseau. Even he can handle this one.

I agree! Holder mislead Congress, which is, in this case, obstruction of justice. President Obama must punish Holder for this deception and fire Him.
The question is: Who will fire Obama?

In your dreams Gary.
I wonder if the libs know or care about this combination of bad policies, incompetence, and corruption within this administration. They may ignore it or choose not to consider it. There has to be a conflict when their cherished theories no matter how well they sound in the teachers' lounge just don't work.
Here we have the chief administrator of justice clearly guilty of perjury. We have Treasury Secretary that was an admitted tax cheat. A die hard communist named as Green Jobs Czar. Legislation pushed through without opportunity for review.
The election can't come soon enough.
Siarlys,
You probably think OJ was innocent too.
No, I think OJ, Detective Mark Fuhrman, and Fred Anderson, should have been sentenced to share a small efficiency apartment with each other for the rest of their lives.
(Why Anderson? Because he advocated repealing the rule requiring a unanimous jury verdict. That is unforgiveable, and it would have done absolutely nothing to secure a conviction of OJ -- the jury in that case WAS unanimous.)
I do remember a sweet old woman in West Virginia who said "I must be one of the 25 white people who think OJ was innocent. Because I don't see how he had enough time to do all the things they said he did." Her brother later remarked "She thinks everyone is innocent."
What I know from the press doesn't convince me beyond a reasonable doubt. But I didn't see all the evidence. Subsequent behavior convinces me that he would have been capable of it. And, subsequent behavior has put him behind bars for the STUPIDEST reasons. That man had $25,000 a month coming in that couldn't be touched by a judgement in a court case, and he put himself in prison over a few TROPHIES???
Don't tell me I'm off topic. You introduce it.
Who is Fred Anderson?
I may be getting names mixed up. Goldman? The father of the murdered man. He went bananas after the verdict. Grief and rage I can understand, but tampering with the unanimous verdict? No way.
