Holder resigns

Can we say about time?. One of the most partisan political
hacks to occupy the position of Attorney General finally calls
it quits. Good riddance. I propose we call a special session
of Congress to get his sorry but out ASAP. Guess that makes me a
racist.

So that his replacement can get voted in before the Senate goes
Republican. Remember, the Senate under Reid changed the rules
so a nominee only needs 51 votes to get the job. If he doesn't
do it before the republicans take over, this change would come
back to bite them in the a$$. Sharpton says he's helping in the
selection process. That's all we need.

You mean changed the rules back to what they had been for
decades, before republicans decided to screw the elected
democratic majority? Yeah, I remember that change and am 100%
in favor of it. Majority is Majority.

I don't have a problem with it either. You would have to be
somewhat naive to think Holders resignation wasn't based on
that.

And here I was hoping he resigned because he just realized he
was bad at his job, lol.

How could he possibly come to that realization when he and Obama
keep telling each other they aren't?
