Gunrunner: Eric Holder tries to cut a deal with the Congress on Fast and Furious
As I wrote about in this post, Darrell Issa has sent a letter to Eric Holder in which he stated he has proof that top level Department of Injustice officials knew about Fast and Furious and in fact authorized wiretaps on behalf of Eric Holder. This letter stated emphatically that Eric Holder gave false testimony in front of the Congress and demanded that Eric Holder hold people accountable. While we have heard Darrell Issa threaten Eric Holder with contempt in the past only to back down when Eric Holder declined to meet his demands this letter had an air about it that was different. It appeared to me as if this was a formality and if Eric Holder still remained indignant that contempt charges would soon follow.
And this might just be the case because it appears as if Eric Holder is finally getting a little bit nervous; maybe he feels the walls closing in around him because it is now being reported that he is looking to strike a deal with the Congress.
We are hopeful that these ongoing conversations will lead to a mutually acceptable resolution of these issues and continue to provide the kinds of information that would answer your questions,” Cole wrote. “While our staffs continue to discuss these issues, I want to reiterate that I remain available to meet with you personally
Eric Holder is feeling the heat and he knows Darrell Issa is close to finding him deeply involved in this deadly scandal, so he is suddenly willing to work with the Congress–so he says–but in my opinion the time for talk is over. Eric Holder had plenty of chances to come clean and he had plenty of chances to hold people accountable, but instead he decided to protect and shield the people in his Injustice Department because he felt is would reflect poorly on himself.
At this point Darrell Issa should tell Eric Holder that it is too late to come clean now…..tell it to the judge.
UPDATE: John Boehner is denying he is in negotiations with Eric Holder, basically claiming the mainstream media ran with a false story in an attempt to make Eric Holder look a little better:
This story shows how the mainstream media is ignoring this scandal and covering up for the Department of Justice

Great news! I hope Holder finally gets what he deserves!

Boehner is denying this story now, claiming the media reported it to make Holder look more resonable than he really is.

I can only hope that Boehner gets no credit in this. I believe that it has been partly due to him that things have gone so slowly. It is all just plain “politics” and I am getting really sick of it. Either the man is guilty of what Issa says or not, plain and simple. When you start mincing words, then things get complicated. You can not give AG Holder any wiggle room, or you have seen what happens, THIS! I hope that Issa/Grassley have it in the bag, this would be an added plus going into the election.

I think Issa and Grassley are closing in on Holder and he is getting worried, and you are right about Boehner, he deserves no credit if they take down Holder.

I just hope that Holder takes his boss with him. You know this entire thing was the behind the scenes way that Ovomit promised the Brady Bunch to destroy the Second Amendment. Make people willing to give up more of their freedoms to “promote safety”.

In my latest post on Gunrunner I mentioned that I think Holder is covering for Obama by trying to delay this until after the election. There is no doubt in my mind that Obama knew about this from the beginning and approved of it.

Indeed.
