SOMEONE'S GOT THEIR FEELINGS HURT...
LOOK WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SOMEONE IN THE OBAMA ADMIN GETS CAUGHT DOING WRONG! THEY THROW A TEMPER FIT!!
In his testimony this week before the House Judiciary Committee,
Attorney General Eric Holder had a little hissy fit over his perception
that he wasn't being treated with the "respect" that he deserves.
"This isn't always a pleasant experience," he says, referring to Hill
testimony. "I don't feel like I've always been treated with respect.
It's not a personal thing... but I'm the attorney general... "
"I'm the attorney general" -- Isn't that precious? Drew M over at the
Ace of Spades blog schools the A.G. on what respect IS and when it's
DESERVED:
"A couple of things about this.
Hey Eric,
which part of "co-equal branch" don't you get? Members of Congress don't
owe you any respect, personally or for your office. You're a political
appointee heading an executive department that was created by Congress
and they can do away with it if they collectively want to.
Unlike the people you are complaining about you were not elected by the
highest authority in this country, We The People. In fact, your position
isn't even a constitutionally mandated one.
Why exactly should
anyone in the House treat you with respect? Are you forgetting that
little matter of being held in "Contempt of Congress"? They hold you
personally in contempt Eric. A lack of respect is implied."
Evidently A.G. Holder likes to keep "Fast & Furious" out of his
personal happy place, but WE all, and the GOP side of Congress
remember...
Respect is EARNED, not bestowed by an Imperial Court. Not in this country... at least, not yet.
