Members of a congressional committee at a public hearing Wednesday blasted former President Barack Obama and his attorney general for allegedly covering up an investigation into the death of a Border Patrol agent killed as a result of a botched government gun-running project known as Operation Fast and Furious.

The House Oversight Committee also Wednesday released a scathing, nearly 300-page report that found Holder’s Justice Department tried to hide the facts from the loved ones of slain Border Patrol Brian Terry – seeing his family as more of a “nuisance” than one deserving straight answers – and slamming Obama's assertion of executive privilege to deny Congress access to records pertaining to Fast and Furious.

We need it NOW.

Lingering issues like this undermine out entire system.

Agreed.  And, 0bama needs to be discredited and rendered powerless.

Bammy is now a private citizen, so he has no authority or than people thinking that he still has some kind of authority.

Sure he does.  He has access to all the movers and shakers of the world, as evidenced by his speech at the Brandenburg Gate last week and subsequent meeting with Angela Merkel, and he's got quite an organization here with the obvious intention of continuing to influence things here.

STRONGLY worded letters to follow I'm sure!

Sited for contempt of Congress and nobody goes to jail!   

It’s not enough to have these cover-ups exposed. Someone needs to answer for them, to be held accountable for their actions, to demonstrate to others that no one, not even the president, is above the law.

I'll believe something worthwhile has been done when the indictments start rolling through, and maybe not even then.

Holder is in contempt of congress for refusing to answer the Congressional subpoena that was issued to him.

I'd give anything to see that contempt citation on him enforced.

No worries there! No one will be indicted, if ever, until they've been dead and gone fifty years.

Not going to happen. The rasis pump has been primed and they'd burn down a half dozen cities (after they looted the liquor stores, got new big screen teevees and all the latest whatevers...
