REP. BLAKE FARENTHOLD: ERIC HOLDER WOULD BE IN JAIL WERE HE A REGULAR CITIZEN

At U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder's appearance before a hearing of the House Judiciary Committee, one Congressman refused to ask Holder any questions because the Obama Cabinet leader has refused to be straight with Congress.

When it was time for Representative Blake Farenthold (R-TX) to question Holder on his refusal to supply Congress with requested documents and to forthrightly answer questions in committee hearings, the Texan instead lambasted Holder.

When it came his turn, Farenthold said, "I’m committed to maintaining the Constitutional balance of power and the authority that this legislative branch has, and I just don’t think it’s appropriate that Mr. Holder be here."

He continued, saying, "If an American citizen had not complied with one of the Justice Department’s subpoenas, they would be in jail and not sitting here in front of me, testifying."

If congress doesn't do anything about it everyone will do the same thing. When will they get the ba$$s to impeach Obama and the rest of the criminals in his administration?
