If Holder turns over the documents whose confidentiality is required by law, he'd face criminal charges. If he doesn't, he'd be in trouble with the teahadist House. In other words, Issa set an illegal trap on Holder to make him damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. And it's a criminal accusing the Attorney General of being the criminal Issa is.
