List of Congressmen Calling for Holder’s Resignation Continues to Grow

December 26, 2011

Printer Friendly | Email |

(GunReports.com) -- (GunReports.com) -- Attorney General Eric Holder remains embroiled in controversy over the highly publicized and ill-fated “Operation Fast and Furious.”

When NRA-ILA reported on this issue on December 9, 52 U.S. Representatives, two U.S. Senators, and multiple GOP Presidential candidates had called on Attorney General Eric Holder to resign as a result of the scandalous “Fast and Furious” operation. As of December 22, at least 90 congressmen have either signed Rep. Paul Gosar's (R-Ariz.) "no confidence" (in Holder) resolution or believe he should quit.

According to a December 20 article in The Daily Caller, Gosar's “no confidence” resolution alleges that Holder’s actions have proven he is not "competent, trustworthy and beyond reproach," and that he has sought to "cover up" mistakes rather than cooperate with Congress "in disclosing the events and circumstances and transparently addressing the issues."

The article further notes that, including Gosar, there are 81 members of Congress who no longer trust Holder to continue to hold office, and 60 congressmen have now demanded that Holder resign. Between the two lists, which don't perfectly overlap, there are now at least 90 members of the House who don't approve of Holder.

In addition to the 60 congressmen, two U.S. Senators, all of the top GOP presidential candidates and two sitting governors have demanded that Holder resign.

NRA has also called for Holder’s resignation. In fact, NRA-ILA has prepared a video that all freedom-loving Americans need to watch showing that Holder's actions prove he can't be trusted with the sanctity of our freedoms, the powers of his office, or the lives of our law enforcement officers.

David Cordrea deserves credit and recognition for fighting to bring this fiasco to light.

Well, the number is growing. That's a good thing. However, I don't want him to quit. I want to see him tried and either acquitted or convicted of something. Lying to Congress is defined as a felony, isn't it? We've already got him on that one via Obama's interview last March (it was March, was it not?). Even if he's acquitted, it would become plain that it was a white-wash and somebody would be gigged for THAT.

There is always the alternative: Impeachment, trial, and conviction. How can even Obama continue to support this lying, law-breaking SOB?

Holder is a liar. His boss, Obama is a liar. All politicians are liars, but are usually more subtle. How can anyone, liberal or conservative vote for Obama? He is a liar and cannot be trusted.

Fast & Furious is arming a rebel army. Declaring war on Mexico's government. Serious stuff.

It seems that the Obama administration is biding time so that this whole travesty will just dry up and blow away. We cannot permit that to happen. It's getting to be time for us to contact our Congressional representatives to demand that articles of impeachment be drawn up against Holder and his cronies.

Eric Holder has ,with his(?)shipment of arms to groups attacking a Friendly Nation,has in effect declared war on that nation.The Secy. of State should also press charges. I think they call it Treason!

What cracked me up is this clown falling back on the race card saying he and OB are hated because they are Afro-Amer.....

I don't hate them, I despise them. Both of them. And not because they're black, but because they are lying, dishonest traitors to the story that is American freedom. I don't give a crap what color a person is, but I do care what colors he salutes (or doesn't).

Color me red, white and blue. "Red neck, white socks, and Blue Ribbon beer!" :-)
