As expected, the 17 Dems of the house committee supported Holder, but the majority of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, is sending the vote to place Holder in contempt of Congress to the full body of the house.
Obama is channeling Nixon, and after denying any knowledge of Fast and Furious, has now claimed executive privilege to conceal the details of the gun running operation.
That’s what Rush Limbaugh is calling the Obama order to allow young ILLEGAL immigrants to stay in the country and given work visas. Obama is feeling rather desperate about his reelection chances after driving off his minority support with the HHS mandate, the War on Women, his approval of gay marriage, and their high unemployment rates. He’s been needing to develop a pool of voters, to cut his looses.
The U.S. government sent guns to Mexico in order to raise controversy about their use by drug cartels, and use this as an excuse to undermine our Second Amendment rights.
Obama’s new commerce secretary, John Bryson was hospitalized after an series of auto accidents in Los Angeles on Saturday. He passed a breathalyzer test. Bryson has since been released following initiation of treatment for a seizure which may have precipitated the driving difficulties.
Pharmer wonders if the initial symptoms might have been manifest in 2011, when Mr. Bryson first agreed to accept the appointment as Obama’s commerce secretary.
Prayers for his health, which possibly has taken a serious downhill turn.
Hat tip to Tamminator at Hillbuzz who tells us that planned unparenthood has gotten itself into a Los Angeles high school, where it can pollute the kids, dispense birth control, and refer for abortions, all without parental intervention.

Byron Tau, of the Politico perceived this statement made by Obama at a Los Angeles LGBT Leadership Council fundraiser in Beverley Hills on Wednesday night, as a joke.
From the Pool Report:
“Michelle outdoes me in pushups as well,” he said, after saying that she’s taken some criticism on her technique “because she doesn’t go all the way down” – a line that he let hang, naughtily, provoking laughter from the crowd.”
“I want to thank my wonderful friend [Ellen DeGeneres] who accepts a little bit of teasing about Michelle beating her in pushups – (laughter) – but I think she claims Michelle didn’t go all the way down. (Laughter.) That’s what I heard. I just want to set the record straight – Michelle outdoes me in pushups as well. (Laughter.) So she shouldn’t feel bad. She’s an extraordinary talent and she’s just a dear, dear friend – Ellen DeGeneres. Give Ellen a big round of applause.”
Mr Burkeman appeared to think that the remark was not intended to be nasty, and that Americans are dirty minded. However, the Politico is a news organ of the WhiteHouse, and it is the vehicle by which this little gaffe was brought to our attention.
Buzzfeed votes with Politico on the matter, and the world is aTwitter with the news.
Obama needs to stick with his teleprompter. Every verbal blunder and misstep is going to be magnified from now until November.
Update: a video of the double entendre is below, along with Obama media apologists trying to take back what the Politico initially presented.
What are you doing on Friday? Are you off work? Look up the list of cities at the above link and show up for the nationwide rallies against Obama’s birthcontrol-abortion-sterilization HHS mandate. They occur in each city at noon, local time, June 8, 2012.
