(Plus a note to liberal commenters here at Right Pundits at the end of this post)
Beleaguered Attorney General Eric Holder whined to New Media website Daily Caller telling them to stop covering the unfolding story of Operation Fast and Furious, the disastrous Obama administration gun control program that has killed hundreds of Mexicans and several Americans.
After Holder’s latest appearance at the White House on Tuesday, one of the DC’s reporters went up to AG Holder and shook his hand while introducing himself. He asked Holder for a comment about the 52 members of Congress that demanded his resignation over F&F.
Holder stepped towards the exit, then turned around, stepped back toward the reporter, and sternly said, “You guys need to — you need to stop this. It’s not an organic thing that’s just happening. You guys are behind it.”
He never did address the actual question, naturally.
Daily Caller has the audio of the incident.
Now think about what Holder is saying here. He’s saying that the folks at the Daily Caller made this whole story up! Amazing, is it not?

**Note to the liberal commenters here at RightPundits**
A few days ago I went over the top in the name calling at a few of the libs here. For that I am sorry. You may have noticed that I have stepped back from making comments myself for a few days for a cool off. Now, I am not apologizing to you. I am apologizing to myself for stooping so low.
I have been told by the RP staff that I should be responsible for the comments on my threads (what the other writers do here I don’t know) and I am going to take that opportunity.
So, here is what I will delete. Anything that is nothing but a personal attack will be deleted. I don’t mind if people call each other names when the comment is pertinent to the issue being discussed but straight on personal attacks do not further the debate. (i.e. “you are a moron because…,” or, “You must be mentally retarded to think that this…” etc., etc.)
Again, If you post a straight on personal attack that has no substance at all I will delete it.
Of course, if I were to delete everything that lacks substance from you leftists that visit here I’d be deleting every single post you few put up. There isn’t a one of you that makes any effort at all to debate here. I’ve said it before: we need a better brand of liberal troll around here.
Anyway, I’ll settle for an end to the substance-free personal attacks. They will be deleted.
Oh, and guess what else? I don’t give a flying crap if you don’t like it.

Hey Warner, maybe you could apply the disciplines to those who attack grammar, spelling, and other irrelevant features ?
“Now, I am not apologizing to you. I am apologizing to myself for stooping so low.”
Dont be so hard on yourself, I would worry more about liars
Lying is the one form of literature thats just as dangerous as a loaded gun.
I’m with you man, I’m no angel, and probably have the most volatile mouth around.
Attacking someones appearance is about as juvenile as it gets.
When the others were asked to submit some pictures of themselves they tried to change the subject.

Micky, I don’t claim to be Shakespeare. I’m just a blogger and do wish I had an editor. But, yeah, I know what you mean.
… and you’re right. You’re no angel! LOL
November 29th, 2011 at 4:41 pm
That’s just rich. Holder blames the Daily Caller for the Fast and Furious debacle. Sort of like Obama blaming the Tea Party for the US getting downgraded because of all the money is he wasting.
November 29th, 2011 at 5:08 pm
WTH, you are to be commended for taking the high ground here… It’s going to throw a crimp in a couple of libbers style, but hey, this is NOT about style, it’s about substance…
Kudos my friend, you have done well here..

Warner Todd–
Very adult of you. Apology accepted. Let’s focus on the issues.
F&F– so far, no traction. It’s a slow story, and meandering, both parties are culpable (first mentioned in a 2007 Bush memo), and this appears to have more to to do with low-level, well-intentioned incompetence. Maybe something will stick, but so far this has been one of many toothless right-wing obsessions. I would think most republicans would want Holder sticking around, considering he has disappointed the left by refusing to prosecute so many crimes from the previous administration, and has been stepping up prosecutions against medical marijuana dispensaries in California. (libertarians excepted)

“this has been one of many toothless right-wing obsessions.”
Bullsht.
The whole damned thing was a liberal think shank starting with Carter.
I’ve only submitted the transcripts where both Bush and McCain were trying to tell the 110th and 111th congress this thing was gonna blow up in our faces as a result of this bad paper collecting over the thirty year period.
The left threatened banks with regulations if they didnt make loans to those who cant afford them.
F&F couldnt sell off the crap mortgages they got stuck with.
F&F were the biggest contributors to the meltdown of any other component
“I would think most republicans would want Holder sticking around, considering he has disappointed the left by refusing to prosecute so many crimes from the previous administration,”
Did it ever occur to you that someone might be a little pi$$ed over Fast n Furious resulting in the death an agent ?
Not to mention locking up agents who did there job and let the perp back in the country to sue over being shot in the ass while smuggling.
Or letting Panthers threaten people at polling sites
What crimes from the previous administration ?
Halliburton wont fly anymore.
Both wars were voted legal by both parties
Barry loves the patriot act more than Bush
Valerie Plame ? The sooper spy who got outed ?
What crimes ?
Please tell

To top it off, Barney Frank throws in the towel !
BWAAA-HAHAHAHA !

Wonderful post Warner!

Correct grammar and spelling at least denote a modicum of effort.
Everyone makes a typo now and then, but some seem to disregard all spelling and grammar guidelines and appear to deem it as irrelevant.
The “Palinization” of America.
We are using a medium that is dependent on the written word.
November 30th, 2011 at 4:09 pm
Warner don’t let the liberal dummies get under your skin.
buzzbee, isn’t it funny how liberals obsess with form over substance? If you bothered to read Mark Twain or William Shakespeare you would see that the great writers all use misspellings (in dialect) and even invented words to get their point across. If you understand someone, it does not matter how they say it, in fact, literacy tests were administered by great thinkers like you to keep black men from voting.
Love “Palinization” as a new word. New words are invented all of the time particularly in American English. Inventiveness is a pillar of our unique culture.

Thats right Buzz, we all better get that education or else we might just end up in Irack

Debate?
What is the point? I have never been confronted by people that are so “sure” of their position.
I remember the Rupert Murdoch post. He and his company were obviously wrong, but the people on this site took up for him as if he was an American hero.
He is an Australian that has employed the lowest common denominator approach to increase circulation and ratings.
He is no American statesman or bastion of liberty, but merely an opportunist that has further diluted the literary standards of the press (boy, I’m asking for it there).
No one took up for any of the real victims of the phone hacking. It was all about the inappropriate examination of his company’s methods.

“Thats right Buzz, we all better get that education or else we might just end up in Irack”
Ever wonder why so many men from ages 58 to 66 have college degrees?
Remember, that until the last few years of the Vietnam War all you needed to get a deferment was enrollment in college.
That gave you a 2S classification.
Subsequent to the student deferment elimination, a child or an apprenticeship in specific industries allowed for an avoidance of time in Vietnam.
That is how the war was primarily fought by Bubba Blues instead of the Fortunate Sons.
Strange how people my parent’s age said at the time that they would disown any treasonous individuals who went to Canada (which is a 10 minute tunnel ride away from me), but many years later acknowledged that it may have been a sensible decision.
Of course, there was no amnesty granted until 1977 and deserters can technically still face arrest today upon entry into the U.S.

Gee, I fail to see how that relieves Kerry of insulting our troops.
