Lawmakers' lawyers suggest fines, jail time for Eric Holder for contempt

Attorney General Eric Holder should be held in contempt of court for refusing to release “Fast and Furious” documents in line with a judge’s order — and even given jail time if necessary, lawmakers said.

Members of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee requested U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson to fine Mr. Holder if he doesn’t comply with her own order issued back in August — the one where she said he couldn’t claim executive privilege to keep private certain documents related to the federal gun-running program, “Operation Fast and Furious,” Politico reported.

Jail time at the very LEAST.

Just never having to look at him again is a start.

He needs to be in a jail cell now.

It's about time. Long overdue in my estimation.
