From CBS News:

House Judiciary Republicans, in their letter, raise the possibility that Holder perjured himself by issuing an ironclad denial of any involvement in the investigation and potential prosecution of reporters. "The media reports and statements issued by the Department regarding the search warrants for Mr. Rosen's emails appear to be at odds with your sworn testimony before the Committee," they wrote. "We believe - and we hope you will agree - it is imperative that the Committee, the Congress and the American people be provided a full and accurate account of your involvement in and approval of these search warrants."

The AP situation (Which Holder testified about) are not the same as the Rosen situation, which means he didn't commit perjury. See post 39 above.

holder would best serve the president by resigning
he equated news gathering with spying
the media is rightfully incensed by that
the head of our system of justice cannot make such fundamental mistakes and still be found capable to do that job
if he does not resign, he will become a massive weight upon the Obama administration
the media will assure it



this again documents Obama's fundamental weakness. he is a terrible judge of talent

Hell has frozen over. I agree with you. :lol:

I don't think Holder is going anywhere, he probably has dirt on everyone including Obama.

I don't know if dirt would have anything to do with it but if he resigns it will be seen as an admission of guilt and the democrats don't want anything like that out there with campaign season on its way. If he stays around it might present a problem but, from a political perspective, that's better a resignation and a sure thing.

The one thing he has going for him right now is that the statement folks are hammering him on was a reply to Hank Johnson and old Hank is so damned crazy that his stupid likely has its own gravitational field. Holder can always just say "sorry, I just got sucked into the Johnson Effect".

This CIA scandal is getting bigger every day and IMO someone is going to have to fall on the sword before it reaches Obama himself. I think Holder will resign and say he is 100% responsible and that Obama knew nothing about this (as usual).Then Obama can come out and say" It's OVER! A big head has rolled and this ends the investigation." Only time will tell if this tactic works.

I hope that he is thrown on the sword, but even if he's run through, I don't know if the sword will stop with that...
