Saturday Friday Movie Matinee: Holder Lied To Congress

Greta Van Susteren had Karl Rove on her show, Friday night, to discuss the Holder/AP/Fox News scandal in the wake of  reports that Eric Holder approved the search warrant for James Rosen’s private emails.

Attorney General Eric Holder signed off on a controversial search warrant that identified Fox News reporter James Rosen as a “possible co-conspirator” in violations of the Espionage Act and authorized seizure of his private emails, a law enforcement official told NBC News on Thursday.

Rove was probably chomping at the bit to get on the show, knowing what Holder recently testified before Congress:

“First of all you’ve got a long way to go to try to prosecute the press for publication of material. This has not fared well in American history… In regard to potential prosecution of the press for the disclosure of material.This is not something I’ve ever been involved in, heard of, or would think would be wise policy.“

That was a direct lie. Did Holder take an oath? Probably not, weasel that he is.

The “conventional wisdom” has been that Eric Holder’s days are numbered, but the Regime would wait until the scandals died down before Holder would be asked to step down (so he could leave with his head high.) But methinks this thing is going to happen sooner rather than later. The a spot under the bus with Holder’s name on it waiting for him.

UPDATE: 

Confirmed, he did take an oath. Holder has a perjury problem.

@edmorrissey @guypbenson The committee specifically said it was suspending the “no oath” courtesy.

Debt Ceiling, Immigration And Tax Reform – Hannity Radio 5/23/2013:

Some great points from Paul, including  his contention that Lois Lerner shouldn’t still have a job at the IRS, and certainly shouldn’t be trusted near peoples’ tax records.

Krauthammer on Miller’s IRS Testimony:

“Here’s a guy who says that the IRS openly discriminated against groups on the basis of their politics, but the action was not a political action. It was instead an attempt at efficiency.’You’ve Got to be a Knave or a Fool to Say That and an Idiot to Believe it. It’s simply a contradiction in terms.”

PJ Media: TRIFECTA: IRS, AP, Fox & Benghazi Scandals Prove the Extreme Corruption of the Obama Administration:

Trifecta told you so. The AP, Fox News, IRS, Fast & Furious and Benghazi scandals prove that the Obama Administration has brought Chicago style politics to the nation’s capital. If the culpable parties in the Obama Administration escape prosecution, will the intimidation of President Obama’s enemies continue unabated?
