A fed-up Attorney General Eric Holder is accusing congressional critics of launching “unprecedented, unwarranted, ugly and divisive” attacks on him and the Obama administration.
During a speech to the National Action Network, a group founded by Rev. Al Sharpton, in New York on Wednesday lauding the organization’s effort to advance racial equality, a heated Holder went a little off-script.
“Forget about me [specifically]. Look at the way the attorney general of the United States was treated yesterday by a House committee,” Holder told the crowd. “What attorney general has ever had to deal with that kind of treatment? What president has ever had to deal with that kind of treatment?”
Really Eric....really?!?
Schumer: "The Attorney General, unlike all the others, doesn't just follow the President's orders, but he's the chief law enforcement officer of the land. And the antics, what we saw went on, is reminiscent of something in a third world dicatatorship, not the United States of America and it's hard to believe that the President and his inner circle doesn't get that."
Harry Reid: "Alberto Gonzales was never the right man for this job. He lacked independence, he lacked judgment, and he lacked the spine to say no to Karl Rove. This resignation is not the end of the story. Congress must get to the bottom of this mess and follow the facts where they lead, into the White House
Pelosi: "By his actions and with his testimony yesterday, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales has lost the trust of the American people," the speaker said in a statement Friday afternoon.
"The nation cannot have a chief law enforcement officer whose candor and judgment are in serious question," Pelosi said. "The president should restore credibility to the office of the attorney general. Alberto Gonzales must resign."
Anyone remember then names of two other Attorneys General?
How about Janet Reno and John Ashcroft? Need I look up quotes where they might have been treated harshly by members of Congress?
Get real, Holder, you're an in-over-your-head incompetent and in contempt of Congress. You reap what you sow, drop the victim complex...and the race card?? Pul-LEAZE.
