Eric Holder: Project Gunrunner? Operation Fast & Furious? Hmmm. They sound vaguely familiar

Issa grilled – absolutely grilled – Eric Holder about the Justice Department’s Operation Fast and Furious and Project Gunrunner.

Sparks flew between Darrell Issa (R-CA) and Attorney General Eric Holder Wednesday during a Judiciary Committee hearing. And we don’t mean the kind of sparks that fly between Barney Frank and random cabana boys.

Issa grilled – absolutely grilled – Holder about the Justice Department’s Operation Fast and Furious and Project Gunrunner. Holder tap danced like Mr. Bojangles. He would have gotten 9s on Dancing With The Stars.

Issa is Chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and has subpoenaed documents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) relating to the highly controversial “Project Gunrunner.”

Holder claims he knew nothing about it. He claims his top assistant knew nothing about it. He also seems to be remarkably uninterested.

Unless we’re mistaken, Issa isn’t going to let this one go.

Darrell Issa says “We can no longer trust this administration.” Welcome to the party, Darrell.

Let’s just say that California Republican Congressman Darrell Issa isn’t buying Obama’s Joe Sestak story. But then, who is?

As Issa tells CNN’s Dana Bash, “We can no longer trust this Administration.”

What took you so long, Darrell?

The Congressional video Democrats tried to censor

Democrat cowards were hiding in another room and the Republican video exposes the truth as they attempt to sneak out a back door.

If there was ever a case that screamed “Corruption!”, it’s the Countrywide Loan scandal. As the Wall Street Journal reports:

Democratic staff for the House oversight committee informed their GOP counterparts today that the majority has changed the locks on the committee’s hearing room. While Republicans previously enjoyed their own key to the room, they will now have to request access from Democrats. This followed a bitter partisan argument in which Republicans refused to take down a video from their website that contradicted Dem explanations about a closed-door meeting on the Countrywide VIP loan scandal.

Background: The Democrats said they had to cancel the hearing because “too many members were in another committee hearing.” In reality, the corrupt cowards were hiding in another room and the Republican video exposes the truth as they attempt to sneak out a back door.

For some reason – and we certainly wouldn’t want to cast any aspersions, but encourage you to feel free to do so – the Democrats are very afraid of this Countrywide scandal and the subpoenas Republicans want to issue. They’ve done everything they can think of to put the kibosh on those subpoenas, but California Republican Congressman Darrell Issa has his teeth in this one like a bulldog on a bone.

You go, Darrell.

Republican Congressman calls Democrats’ bluff: Wants all Americans to have same healthcare Congress has

Darrell Issa, Republican congressman from California, has introduced a simple, one-page health care bill that average Americans will love and Democrat leadership will hate. “I have a simple bill,” Issa said

Darrell Issa, Republican congressman from California, has introduced a simple, one-page health care bill that average Americans will love and Democrat leadership will hate.

“I have a simple bill,” Issa said. “It is only one page that simply says, every American can have the same health care that Congress has without preexisting conditions, without any problem changing plans. It’s one page to give every American a choice of over 300 private plans that are all affordable.

Bottom line: If it’s good enough for Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, it’s good enough for you.

Is Issa insane? Why next thing you know, this lunatic will propose that the little people should get to fly around in fancy private jets just like Congress does.
