Addendum on Eric Holder, our new Attorney General.
I noticed there were 21 votes not to confirm him and there was no attempt to filibuster the nomination and I also noticed that the Tennessee senators, Alexander and Corker voted to confirm.
How can anyone support
this man to be the Attorney General of the United States?????
If we thought Ramsey Clarrk or janet Reno were bad, what are we in for now? I put nothing past this insane ideological misfit!!
"This is more than executive overreach. This is contempt of the circuit court of appeals order. This is a high class kidnapping is what it is, sanctioned by no law, sanctioned by no judge..."
Napolitano: Tell me, Mr. Holder, why did you not get a court order authorizing you to go in and get the boy?
Holder: Because we didn't need a court order. INS can do this on its own.
Napolitano: You know that a court order would have given you the cloak of respectability to have seized the boy.
Holder: We didn't need an order.
Napolitano: Then why did you ask the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals for such an order if you didn't need one?
Holder: [Silence]
Napolitano: The fact is, for the first time in history you have taken a child from his residence at gunpoint to enforce your custody position, even though you did not have an order authorizing it.
Napolitano: When is the last time a boy, a child, was taken at the point of a gun without an order of a judge. Unprecedented in American history."
Holder: "He was not taken at the point of a gun."
Napolitano: "We have a photograph showing he was taken at the point of a gun."
Holder: "They were armed agents who went in there who acted very sensitively..."
How can one read this and not be moved??
"The attorney general nominees egregious recommendation for playing Russian roulette by unleashing unrepentant terrorists on the American people against the advice of the FBI, Bureau of Prisons, prosecutors, even Janet Reno herself should disqualify him on its own merit."
Fact check that you obamaphiles!!!!
It's congressional testimony!!!!
