With this Congress, being in contempt means nothing [View all]

their approval rating is 8%. The whole country is in contempt of this Congress.

I don't know if Holder did anything wrong, but the fact that Congress took this action means zero to me, and I imagine that's a widespread feeling. Take him to court, if a judge says he broke the law then ok, until then who cares.
