| Contempt of Congress case against Holder will proceed |
| 2014-09-26 |
| [WASHINGTONTIMES] The contempt of Congress case against Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. -- the first sitting Cabinet member ever to face such a congressional rebuke -- will continue even after his resignation takes effect, but it's unlikely he will ever face personal punishment, legal analysts said Thursday. Mr. Holder, is expected to announce his resignation later Thursday, and Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, said the timing is not accidental: A federal judge earlier this week ruled that the Justice Department will have to begin submitting documents next month related to the botched Fast and Furious gun operation in a case brought by Judicial Watch. "I don't think it's any coincidence he's resigning as the courts are ruling the Fast and Furious information has to be released," Mr. Fitton told The Washington Times. |

| #7 Adolph Hitler's henchmen had a penchant for keeping good records. This eventually caught up with many of them. |

| #6 Regarding the hard drives, what is it with totalitarian folks with keeping such detailed records of their wrongdoing? It really shows they have no shame and believe they are above the law, until its too late. |

| #1 Better to voluntarily resign now with accolades than wait for the chorus of rabid calls for his resignation later. |
