A
House committee has announced a June 20 vote on whether Attorney General Eric
Holder is in contempt of Congress for withholding documents in the "Fast
and Furious" scandal. It can't happen soon enough.
For
more than a year, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee has
labored to find out the truth of White House involvement in the blood-drenched
debacle known as "Fast and Furious". [See Doggone Blog posts
on “Holder” & “Fast and Furious” ]
As the saying goes, "The Wheels of
Justice turn slowly but exceedingly fine." In the case of the “Fast and Furious” scandal, that’s an
understatement! If the wheels turn any
more slowly, the 2012 elections will have come and gone and the whole thing
will be academic. Could it be that the
GOP is more interested in keeping this on “the front page” for political
advantage rather than bringing to justice those indirectly responsible for the murder of
Border Patrol Agent Bryan Terry by Mexican drug cartels with weapons provided
by our government? Let’s hope not.
Meanwhile,
the DOJ and Obama administration are giving new meaning to “government transparency”.
You
do recall his 2009 speech don’t you?
No? No matter, here it is in case
you missed it or just can’t recall the particulars.
