RepForbes: Saying you can't comment because of an ongoing investigation has become this admin's "pleading the 5th". #Holder

I'll have to get a write up. Apparently as one small part of it Holder says he recused himself, but when asked when and was it in writing he said no it wasn't in writing and he doesn't remember when, and he thinks his Dept attorney general okd the AP surveillance.

thanks, no I hadn't. I'll take a look at it. I kind of like the interplay of personalities on twitter, because it is funny, but that's probably a lot more succinct.

edit, ok that gives a lot of the twitter humor but not the truly lame left-cheerleader attempts. They got nothing from what I can see.

I just saw the clip on CNBC. Holder was totally disrespectful. This administration has been a disaster.

Is it possible for Congress to impeach the AG, or is it up to the president? At this point, I'm believing that impeaching President Obama might be a good idea.

they should bring up this seizure by IRS of 60 million medical records case in CA, ask how can the country trust them with Obamacare oversight of medical issues: http://t.co/xynNXUD5KZ

they tried to get some snark trending and it was extremely lame, something about 'the only appalling thing about this is why not one Tea Freak was turned down' or some such, etc. A radio host tried and a few who follow her must be on my time line.

United States Constitution

Article II, Section 4

The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.

Pretty sure Congress can impeach the AG.

If they can later show he lied about it now, though, he's in trouble.

Remember, Clinton was impeached and disbarred for lying to Congress, not for sex in the Oval office.

That's interesting. Seems Holder isn't prepared to say that the IRS is an agency of the Treasury? Did I just hear that correctly?

He is avoiding later being trapped in a lie and trying to not give them anything they can follow up on. He is trying hard to not say anything and right now thinks he is very clever, but he will be on the record.

He probably is wondering where "his boy Obama" (his own words) is at, and why he seems to be too busy to return his calls lately......

The way Issa conducts himself as a member of congress is unacceptable and shameful? And how would you then describe the way you conduct yourself?
