Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) circulated a draft contempt order against Eric Holder on Thursday for a “refusal to cooperate” in the investigation of the Fast and Furious gun-walking operation.
“This briefing paper and draft contempt report explains the case, to both Members of the Committee and the American people, for holding Attorney General Holder in contempt of Congress,” the House Oversight Committee chairman said in a statement. “In describing the results of the Justice Department’s refusal to cooperate — including the hardships the family of a fallen Border Patrol agent have faced in seeking the truth, and retaliation against agents who blew the whistle on gun-walking — this briefing paper provides the facts, on which decisions will be made.”
My blog anyway... Two years, 2,360 posts, 255,000 plus visitors and 388,000 plus page views later I am still having some fun... Most of those visitors coming in the last five months due to being linked by some very popular bloggers with large audiences.
I was under the assumption it was my wit and knack for cutting edge analysis that brought readers here until my good buddy Proof pointed out I am usually my wittiest on Wednesday and even sharper on Thursday...
I have conversed with many great people the last few years who share my conservative principles and beliefs. You all know who you are (look at my blogroll) I visit most of you daily or weekly (work and family take time too!) I am more informed now on the issues of the day than at any time in my life, largely due to the conservative blogosphere.
This year I get to celebrate my blog 'o' versary with my Grand Daughter Lauryn who turns one this weekend (close enough to celebrate together). She is my favorite "Brown Eyed Girl"...
The latest survey of Jewish Americans, conducted March 14-27 by a firm called Knowledge Networks for the American Jewish Committee, shows Barack Obama leading Mitt Romney by a 61%-28% margin. That’s significantly behind Obama’s 78%-21% margin over John McCain among Jewish voters in the 2008 exit poll. …
Obama gets 72% of the votes of those most concerned with the health care issue, according to the current AJC survey, and 62% among those most concerned about the economy. But Romney leads Obama among those Jews whose major concern was national security issues (44%-42%) and U.S.-Israel relations (44%-42%). Clearly Obama is losing some Jewish voters on foreign policy issues.
