52 members of Congress now calling on Eric Holder to resign

eric-holder1I don’t know why the cowardly Republicans have been taking so long to call for Eric Holder’s resignation over Fast and Furious, but the number of members of Congress are finally starting to stick up. Still, only 52 of the over 230 Republicans is still a pathetically small percentage.  But as we’ve already learned this year, even most of the so called “Tea Party Republicans” who run in 2010 have shown they have no spine. According to Daily Caller, Michele Bachmann has become the 52nd member of Congress to call for Holder’s resignation. During as lousy as she is in the GOP candidate polls, she’s looking for any bit of publicity she can get. Right now Eric Holder is off partying in the Caribbean on the tax payer’s dime.

Minnesota congresswoman and Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann told The Daily Caller late Friday that she thinks Attorney General Eric Holder should resign immediately because of Operation Fast and Furious.

Bachmann is the first presidential candidate, and the 52nd member of Congress, to demand Holder’s immediate resignation. “Attorney General Holder should resign because of the mismanagement of ‘Fast and Furious,’” Bachmann told TheDC. “As the nation’s top law enforcement officer, he bears the responsibility for the actions of his department.”

Bachmann went further with this statement than with her previous position on Holder’s job performance. On October 10 in New Hampshire, she told TheDC: “There needs to be a full investigation. And surely he should resign … if the facts prove to be what they appear to be.”
