Hold Holder Responsible
Harlotte's at the Breakfast Table
Good Morning, Breakfastpoppers. Today is Monday, September 29, 2014. Our dear friend, Spider Harlotte, is joining us for breakfast this morning. She wishes to discuss the welcome news that Attorney General Holder is resigning from the Justice Department. This decision is the only positive action he has made since he assumed the position. Please join us for breakfast. Harlotte has prepared a vat of homemade granola for our enjoyment. I will have an even bigger supply of Irish coffees on hand for those who hate granola!
Good News, Bad News
Hello, my dear and cherished human family. I appreciate your presence at the breakfast table. When Attorney General Eric Holder announced his resignation, I swear I heard the nation give a gigantic sigh of relief. During his tenure, the nation has suffered terribly. America has a lawless president being advised by a lawless Attorney General. The combo has divided our nation, lit the fires of racism and destroyed the meaning and intent of the Constitution. Eric Holder meted out something, but it certainly wasn't justice. Under Holder's leadership the Justice Department became a political extension of the White House. He pursued supposed violators of the law in a political and personal way. He ignored others in the same way. When the New Black Panthers stood outside a polling place with baseball bats to intimidate voters, Holder gave them a pass. He ran the department like it was his personal empire only protecting some of the people some of the time. He holds the dubious distinction of being the first attorney general to be held in contempt by the House. His departure is a blessing, but who replaces him may not be at all.
Oh No, Not Al!
The bad news comes in the form of the Rev. Al Sharpton, who released a statement saying that he and his his organization, the National Action Network, were talking to the White House about who Holder's successor should be. Not surprisingly, Sharpton would like Holder replaced with a Holder act alike. Sharpton, President Obama and some other misguided individuals are very busy praising the tenure of the worst attorney general in history. I don't know what they are smoking, but it should be illegal. Since it is the president who decides what type of person takes over the DOJ, the nation should be very worried. Holder was his man.
Timing is Everything
It has been suggested that Eric Holder is leaving in advance of Judge Bate's denial of a request by the DOJ to delay the release of Fast and Furious documents. In all probability, Holder was hoping that these documents would never see the light of day. At long last, justice will be served and it is a widely held belief that Eric Holder will not emerge from this scandal unscathed. The family of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry who was killed on December 14, 2010 may finally learn the truth along with the American people. It will, no doubt, be a bad day for Eric Holder, but it will be much worse if he still leads the Department of Justice.
Playing the Race Card
Attorney General Eric Holder came into office believing that America is as racist as it ever was. Despite the election of a black candidate to the presidency and his own ascension to head the Department of Justice, he pushed the inequality of blacks in this nation to the max. He came in angry and he is leaving angry. He had the chance to faithfully execute the laws of this country fairly and he blew it. Instead he used his position to further an agenda that divided this nation and pit blacks against whites and the rich against the poor. He could have been a shining example of what a person can achieve in America, but instead he chose to use his position to widen the gap between the haves and have-nots and everyone in between. His departure is good for the nation. Let's hope his successor is cut from a different cloth.

Good Morning Old Poolman,
Rumor has it that the House will push for charging Holder. In the end, even if he faces charges, his buddy will pardon him. Washington stinks to high heaven!! See you at the Inn.
Holder will never be held responsible for anything he has done while serving as our AG. Even if evidence proves he was clearly responsible for the deaths caused by the failed Fast & Furious operation nothing will happen to him. He will end up in a different position where he can do even more damage to our Constitution and this once great country.

Good Morning teaches,
It is doubtful with Obama in office, but without hope we have nothing. See you at the Inn!
Hear, hear! I too hope the replacement is cut differently. We need politicians who can unite all people, not cause divisions.

Dear bradmaster,
I agree. Quite a few of them went to culinary school!

Thanks to you and the bugs, for the donuts.
Say what you want, but those bugs know donuts.

Good Morning bradmaster,
I'll ask one of our bug friends to whip up a batch of donuts for you!

I went to the Inn, who ate all the Dunkin Donuts?
The Old Constitution, she ain't what she used to be"
Looking forward to your next hub.
Leaving the Inn now, in search of donuts.
Thanks

Good Morning bradmaster,
No, but I do think Obama is far more dangerous. See you at the Inn.
Pop
Do we really want to put Biden in the driver's seat?
Tough choice.
Thanks
Dr Billy Kidd - Holders main action was to further divide the races regarding black vs white. He chose to personally become involved in racial incidents when it involved white on black, but completely ignored black on white incidents. He set back integration by many years.

Dear Dr. Billy Kidd,
If you look closely into Holder's tenure you will see the damage he has done. He did not administer justice. He trashed the Constitution and he did not protect the rights of all the people.

Dear Mike,
Yes, it is!
I must admit, that's the best one I've heard all month--that Eric Holder divided the nation, rich against poor.
C'mon, the rich have always been against sharing anything with the poor. It's a class world. And those on the bottom are considered to be peasants by rich people.
Costa Rica is looking better all the time.

Dear Mike,
If Napolitano were put in this position I believe it would be time to escape to Costa Rico. I wish I were kidding, but I am not.

Dear Gawth,
I too am elated, but if they were nominated for the Supreme Court it may be time for a revolution. Our country has been damaged enough. I am at the Inn waiting for my friends.

Dear lambservant,
We have to be realistic. The immediate future does not look bright! Meet me at the Inn.
Napolitano who was a total failure as the head of Homeland Security is one who was mentioned to replace Holder. You can bet that whomever is named will have exactly the same ideals and objectives as Obama or they will not qualify.
For those who don't know, the AG's job is not to just protect the President and to coverup all of the government wrongs. Yet that is exactly what we saw with Holder at the helm.

Dear bradmaster,
At this point, I believe we need a mass impeachment. Obama has subverted the Constitution along with his pal Holder. It won't happen, but it should. I am at the Inn awaiting your arrival.

Dear billy,
The country is a hot mess! See you at the Inn where I will be shouting from the bell towers!

Dear Mike,
I have to say this is something I have never contemplated. Personally, I think he resigned because the truth about Fast and Furious is about to come out. The thought of Holder being in the Supreme Court is horrifying. I am at the Inn. Where are you?
Pop, you know I'm elated! The resignations of Holder and Napolitano are landmark! The two of them have jointly kept the many agencies of the true American justice system in a dank , dark dungeon for six years.
Now for the IRS imbeciles at large!
It does concern me that either of the forenamed could become U.S. Supreme Court nominees with the full blessing of our non-illustrious leader.
That idea scares the hell out of me.
When I heard the news I sighed that sigh of relief only for a nansecond. I believe you have it right that they will replace Holder with someone just as bad or worse. Isn't that encouraging word!
Pop
We have a two term black president, and a black AG, and yet the claims of racism haven't been this strong since the 1960s.
Now, a black organization is going to pick the next AG. It better be a woman or the voters might think that Obama isn't interested in their progress in bringing parity to women in politics, and the workplace.
If Obama was smart, he would try to recruit Hillary Clinton as AG. It would probably be just a political ploy, but it would confuse the women voters.
I hope he isn't that smart.
Thanks
bradmaster
I would only change one thing...the title...hold every politician responsible. I'm afraid that would be such a full-time job, no legislation would ever be passed. :) Keep shouting from the bell towers my friend.
This unexpected resignation is part of a plan that could put Holder into a position where he could do could do even more damage. If Obama is successful at getting Holder appointed to the Supreme Court we can kiss America as we know her goodbye.
Holder on the Supreme Court would allow Obama to continue his hope and change plan long after he is no longer President.
Holders resignation may just be another step in the plan to transform this country into what this administration wants it to be.

Good Morning Mike,
We have an Attorney General and a President who hate America. Why else would they make every move possible to dismantle the very best about us? See you at the Inn.
I don't even know what to say about this. The Obama/Holder team working together have caused irreparable damage to this country. Race relations have been set back at least 20 years by the actions of these two individuals. Both have demonstrated an abuse of power like we have never seen before.
The so far successful attempts to cover up the Fast and Furious, IRS, and other scandals only proves they have much to hide. So much for the "most transparent administration in history" that we were promised.
Good riddance is about all I can say.

Good Morning Tom,
And if Holder is indicted as he should be, Obama will pardon him. This is too unreal even for a movie plot! See you at the Inn. Maybe we should move in!
Pop and Harlotte,
Holder will probably devote full time to working on the necessary pardons for Obama Administration officials prior to January, 2019.

Good Morning taxlarry,
Amen...
Getting rid of Holder is small step. We have to rid ourselves of Obumma, Jarrett, Pelosi, Reid, et al. Hopefully, it is not too late.
