I never thought it would happen but it is. He will be the first Attorney General in the history of the U.S. to have Impeachment charges formally brought against him. Holder has been a firewall so to speak protecting Obama and his unconstitutional acts since he became president. Of course Holder has been aided by the liberal media but once Holder is out of there, Obama will be extremely vunerable.
GOP Lawmakers Release Holder Articles of Impeachment | 218
House Republicans are tired of waiting for answers from Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. — they want him impeached and will formally introduce their charges Thursday.
Texas Republican Pete Olson, who is leading the charge behind the Holder articles of impeachment, said this wasn’t a decision he took lightly.
“Since the House voted in 2012 to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt, the pattern of disregard for the rule of law and refusal to be forthright has continued,” Olson said in a statement to CQ Roll Call. “The American people deserve answers and accountability. If the Attorney General refuses to provide answers, then Congress must take action.”
Olson told CQ Roll Call that he would be dropping the articles of impeachment Thursday. On Wednesday, he released a five-page white paper explaining the four articles of impeachment against Holder.
Article I of the impeachment proceedings claims that Holder “engaged in a pattern of conduct incompatible with the trust and confidence placed in him” by refusing to comply with a subpoena issued by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee for documents related to “a legitimate congressional investigation into Operation Fast and Furious by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms that put thousands of illegally-purchased weapons into the hands of cartel leaders, ultimately resulting in the death of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry on December 14, 2010.”
“The Justice Department deliberately withheld documents, preventing the Committee from performing its constitutional duty to conduct oversight of the Executive Branch,” the white paper said, noting that any person who “willfully makes default” of a congressional subpoena is in violation of federal law.
President Barack Obama exercised executive privilege over those documents, but that does not satisfy the group.
“Despite the President’s dubious claim of executive privilege, Attorney General Holder violated federal law by failing to turn over lawfully subpoenaed documents requested by Congress,” the section-by-section analysis of the impeachment proceedings claims.
Article II of the proceedings charges that Holder violated his oath of office by refusing to enforce certain laws that the Obama administration, for various reasons, decided not to enforce, including the Defense of Marriage Act, which the administration deemed unconstitutional.
“If the Administration wants to change the law, it should ask Congress to amend it. Only the Supreme Court can deem laws unconstitutional,” the white paper said. [...] Continued at link above
You may be right."...Me thinks you protest too much. I seriously doubt Obama will lose a minute of sleep over this. Holder, if this goes anywhere, will be loyal and take the fall. And it is not like Obama was doing all that much about anything."
We all know that the voters want the House to be working on stuff like this instead of the budget. Let's go. Hurry up.
Any impeachment charges yet? It should go pretty quickly if you all start now.

The House can work on both at the same time.

Like I said, I haven't thought-through the thing yet, to be honest.
But that doesn't stop me from appreciating the timing or nature of the attack.
The phrase 'striking while the iron is hot' comes to mind.
This, in and of itself, won't "get" Obama, but...
Things are going badly for him, and this could prove to be another nail in the metaphorical coffin, the way things are going at-present with ObamaCare, and the anger of the Mainstream over its impact and uncertainties and prospects and costs...
When folks get THAT upset, they start looking for ways to take-down the leadership... and this could (or may not) prove to be another chink (weakness) in the armor...
I dunno... time will tell.
On second thought, impeachment might be a good idea.
Republicans hate holder because he was an Obama appointee. If you replace him - with YET ANOTHER Obama appointee - republicans will fawn all over the new guy!
Of course they will, because they hate Holder for being a bad AG - and no other earthly reason.

Republicans will hurt themselves if they spend ANY time on this.

Republicans that want to keep their jobs WILL NOT TOUCH THIS. It does not go to vote, if it does, it's yet another nail to lose seats next year.

I guess you are right, those who would never vote for a Republican won't vote for them.
