It’s Time for Corrupt Attorney General Eric Holder to “Pay the Piper”
GOA petitions the House Speaker to move the Gosar Resolution

If you want to put pressure on Congress to get off the dime and do something about this horrendous tragedy,

go to this website: http://www.speaker.gov/Contact/

And submit the following petition:

PETITION TO HOUSE SPEAKER JOHN BOEHNER

Whereas the Justice Department’s Operation Fast and Furious resulted in over 2,000 firearms being shipped across the Mexican border to Mexican drug cartels;

Whereas Fast & Furious firearms turned up at the murder scenes of over 300 Mexican nationals -– and two Fast and Furious firearms turned up at the murder scene of U.S. Border Agent Brian Terry;

Whereas the Justice Department knew that it had neither the logistical nor the legal ability to track the Fast and Furious firearms which it was deliberately allowing to be transported to Mexican drug cartels;

Whereas, Attorney General Eric Holder testified before the House on May 3, 2011, that he had only known of Operation Fast and Furious for a “few weeks”;

Whereas CBS Evening News reported on October 3, 2011, that Attorney General Holder had received no fewer than seven memoranda on the Fast and Furious program, dating back to July, 2010;

Whereas it is not a legal defense that a principal such as Attorney General Holder deliberately ignored the written advice of his attorneys and his subordinates in a case where his ignorance resulted in over 300 murders;

Whereas Attorney General Holder has politicized the Justice Department and has brought disgrace to himself and the department he heads;

Whereas the only acceptable outcome is for Attorney General Holder to be removed from his position of trust, in anticipation of a full investigation of his criminal culpability;

Be it therefore resolved, that

As a member of Gun Owners of America, and being a patriotic American, tired of these farcical and treacherous games being fielded by our own Justice Dept. against the law abiding citizens of this country, I call upon House Speaker John Boehner to schedule immediate House floor consideration of Congressman Gosar’s resolution expressing “no confidence” in Attorney General Eric Holder and calling for his immediate removal as Attorney General of the United States.



At some point there has to be some action and the only way for that to happen is to put pressure on our "Leaders" to act. He is has to start the action is the first to get the pressure. Then we have to follow through with our House Representatives and Senators. Even John Yarmouth must fold under enough pressure from his constituants, the live ones, anyway.

Yes, there will be a canned response. It took about 2 hrs for it to appear in my inbox. What I'd like to know is: will that response time increase as pressure is applied?
