emails show Holder informed of Border Patrol agent’s murder the day it happened

Emails show AG Holder was informed of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry’s murder the day it happened. Holder’s chief of staff at the time was also told the guns that killed Terry were from Fast and Furious, but no one can confirm of deny that the AG himself was informed. Gee, most competent AGs would be curious about something like this, wouldn’t they? Well, we are talking about Holder here.

  • He hasn't spoken in public about the murder or Mr. Terry. He doesn't care. He is an horrible person and I hope that he goes to prison but it may never happen.

  • Articles of IMPEACHMENT!!! need to be drawn up and then a full scale trail in the Senate. Followed by a criminal trail.

    • There is so much graft and backroom dealing in Washington, that no one willever be impeached or tried for their actions. Everyone is going to look the other way, because they don't want THEIR dirty linen to come out in the open. They are all watching each others' backs!

  • Wink , snark --- " You righties ought to know and maybe understand or maybe not ( low IQ's ) , that this is simply the cost of doing buisness . One voter versus 1'000's and 1'000's of future voters . DO THE MATH RETARDS . This is not waterboarding , this is not some endangered species , this is some man that couldn't get a better job , like a union job perhaps , this was a man that put himself in the wrong place at the wrong time . He let HIS family down . You all are soo dum , why did you think there was so many so called draft dodgers ? They knew better ( high IQ's ) that to purposely put themselves in the wrong place . "

    If the truth were REALLY known , you all would admit that there is an undercurrent of rascism in your rants about Eric and Barack . Anyone with any IQ ( high IQ ) can easily see this and you can't . Translation == get used to it , you're too stupid to understand anything .---- Oblivious and her kind.

  • It is impossible to understand why people are not rioting in the streets because this POS holds the top law enforcement job in the US. As a former prosecutor and Army Veteran, I am sick to death that this bastard breathes much less draws a public salary. He should be tried for treason and put to death.

  • So when are the members of Congress going to indite this lying sack of shit of an Attorney General? The racist piece of crap is even giving liars a bad name.

  • This is the HOPE & CHANGE as FAST & FURIOUS as it can be conspired. TREASON is a better word for it. Obama/Holder should be put in a federal maximum security prison for LIFE. This is what a typical citizen would get. These scums tried thier best to take our constitutional rights away from AMERICANS. They are TRAITORS of this country. They've lied, stalled, hidden, don't remember and done just about everything one could imagine to scalp us of our rights and constitution. The TOAD-in-chief needs to be empeached and Holder needs to be put in prison. They are both no better than prison rats which they physically resemble. OLIVIA--let's see you defend this?

    • She will not wander over here, she is still busy trying to answer threads that have gone on way to long cause she thinks nobody will see her sneak in...and besides this story doesn't mention Obama/Muslims/Abortion. So she will continue to sneak around like a crack head looking to steal your aluminum cans or copper pipe instead of going head to head with some one on a thread that she can not just and paste stupid answers too....

          • Just a couple days ago Darrell Issa said holder should apologize! Good funny one! Public castration for him and obutthead before they are sent walking into the streets of Juarez naked would suit me fine. Make it HIGH NOON for effect...

          • Attorney General Eric Holder wrote a letter to the family in November to say that he was “sorry for the loss of your son” and made an offer to meet with them. Holder said that the Fast and Furious operation was “completely unacceptable.”

            but he won't take responsibility for it until he's forced to, if even then. I'd say let Terry's family choose the manner of execution with the caveat that it not be quick or painless.
