House holds Holder in contempt over 'Fast and Furious' documents – Washington Times.

An interesting statistic is that only 17 Democrats voted to hold Eric Holder in criminal contempt of Congress, for his withholding of documents pertaining to the case, and for lying on more than one occasion. An additional 5 Dems, for a total of 21 voted to pursue a civil contempt case against Holder in court.

One expects that these Democrats will not be partying at the DNC convention in North Carolina.
