Attorney General Eric Holder got into a heated argument with a Republican congressman Tuesday over the still-pending contempt case against him.

Holder was testifying before the House Judiciary Committee when Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, began pressing him for documents in a separate investigation. Gohmert brought up an apparent sore spot, referencing the 2012 House vote finding Holder in contempt of Congress.

"I realize that contempt is not a big deal to our attorney general, but it is important that we have proper oversight," Gohmert said.

A visibly annoyed Holder said: "You don't want to go there, buddy." Leaning back in his chair, he added, "You don't want to go there, okay?"

"I don't want to go there?" Gohmert responded.

Holder went on to say that the congressman "should not assume that that is not a big deal to me."

"I think that it was inappropriate and it was unjust, but never think that was not a big deal to me. Don't ever think that," Holder said, pointing his finger.

Gohmert defended his line of inquiry, saying he's "just looking for evidence ... and there have been no indications that it was big deal because your department has still not been forthcoming in producing the documents that were the subject of contempt."

The exchange ended when Gohmert told Holder he didn't need "lectures" from the attorney general. Holder said the same back to Gohmert.

The attorney general, one of the longest-serving and most controversial members of the Obama Cabinet, often has tense encounters with Republicans during congressional hearings.

The GOP-led House voted in 2012 to hold him in contempt for failing to provide key information on Operation Fast and Furious.

That case is still being fought in the courts.

Took some brass to stand up against the Kremlin today, I have a hunch a Federal Investigation will be started on this Congressman for trying to do his job.

And that hunch would be based on what, total lack of understanding of the constitution? Or inside information that neither party is subject to the constitution?

A hunch based on past actions of the Obama regime using Federal Agents to intimidate rivals. IRS Agents, Secret Service and FBI Agents, who well all take their marching orders in one way or another from Holder and Obama.

In my opinion the arrogance coming out of this administration is stunning. He and his boss completely ignore the Congress and the three branches system of governing.

Holder himself was held in contempt and has still not complied with the congressional subpoenaed or requested documents.

Anyone else would have been fired by now...

Yeah just what I thought. What about the constitution, Article 1 Section 6? And how about Article 1, Section 2?

Oh that's right, a democracy is it?

But what about the complacency of congress in totally ignoring their duty? Impeach and then off to trial we go. Perjury should keep them tied up long enough to complete the trials for treason and then...

hangings at high noon on the White House lawn. A couple a day should keep the public entertained for quite a while. Just to keep it interesting I propose two gallows, one for Democrats and one for Republicans. Hang one of each per day. Could even paint one blue and the other red.

Has anyone noticed they do not care? Has anyone noticed how all the Democrat leadership, Pelosi, Reid, for example do not care?

Why do you guys suppose that is especially with how pissed off people are at the Dems for the last 6 years of BS, not to mention Obamacare?

Could it be because they know something we do not know?

If you guys recall during the last election, Pelosi and Reid both were very convinced that Obama was going to win re-election despite his wretched poll numbers. It is not hard to tell when these two are really spooked and they were not.

Perhaps they knew of the democratic voter fraud plan that would push Obama over the top in every state that did not require ID?

I see that same attitude today. What do they know now that we do not know? Could it be that there is not going to be an election and they are not going anywhere? Do they know that some major crisis is going to happen and the election will be postponed by executive order so that there is not any voter disenfranchisement?

Is obamas recent remarks about a 3rd or 4th term to place this in everyone's memory so that when the time comes, the citizens think all is just normal?

Holder, Pelosi, Reid, Clinton, Obama and several others NEED to be imprisoned. The American people HAVE ALLOWED THEM to forget ...they work for us...we do NOT work for them and Holder should be liable and imprisoned.

Everyone should look up S C Y T L...that's another ace in the hole for the Dems.

And is the main reason why there will never be an honest election in this country.

Implement all your heroes policies?

Or is this little fantasy only going to occur in your little republic?

The news this morning is that Holder is withholding documents that show the Obama administration is taking advice from the Muslin Brotherhood. Holder is ignoring the contempt charges.

Does anything suffered under the fascist liberal agenda of this admin and its top cop Holder really surprise anyone at this point?

When you control the law, the courts and the highest position of power in the land, as well as the peoples money to use against them, does it really surprise anyone these criminals seek to play god?

I can see you do not know who or what the MB really is. Don't feel bad though, most people do not not.

The MB is what is known as "controlled opposition".

Muslim Brotherhood or Ikhwan al-Muslimum in Arabic was created or infiltrated by British Intelligence (MI6) in 1927.

Did you ever catch the news several years ago about how the British SAS were caught in Iraq dressed up as Arabs while committing terrorism?

That's what the MB is. British MI6/American CIA/Israeli Mossad agents playing "dress up"...knowing that whatever they do will be blamed on Muslims by the American anti-Christ media.

Or, to put it another way, the anti-Christ media is the accomplice of the REAL terrorists.

My friend, there are all kinds of extremists and fanatics with an agenda in the world, and religion has been the cause of more conflicts and atrocities than any other cause to date.

Do we mandate belief systems next thinking it will change anything to adopt another extreme?

Ignorance has no religion or bible but it does have one hell of a congregation following it!

That's certainly true: but; in the example I gave; it's actually Communist agents (Communism being a godless political ideology); that are besmirching people of a certain religion by committing acts of terrorism while "pretending" to be Arabs.

Look up the King David hotel bombing in Cairo in 1946 and learn the particulars of that bombing in order to learn the how this "game" is played.

Said "game" having been continuously repeated since 1946.

No this is for someone capable of thinking to think about but for others to just not understand and make light of.

Of course I much prefer the French method of keeping political figures in line, the guillotine. There was a nicely used one for sale on eBay but no one bought it.

And when one so little understands basic concepts, how could one expect understanding of a principle so complex as a republic. Must be the reason there are so few residents, the idiocy of the population not to understand basic issues, much less freedom. Must be why the founders made the remark, "Do we deserve freedom?"

But yes, I do admire Chavez for what he did for his people. Something you would never be able to figure out in many lifetimes. Of course next you would want me to live there, would just demonstrate your inability to think for yourself and to harbor some air of intelligence not warranted.

And Putin, got to love that guy and what he has accomplished. He has taken a disaster and turned it into a very prosperous nation. He very firmly stands for his beliefs like a man, not the little fascist wimps he faces. But this would be another area in which little is understood on your part with expectations of some snide little comments much like the heroes of the day, Odumbo, Pelosi, Reid, McCain and so many others.

What a pathetic excuse!

You forgot the American involvement and the millions, sorry billions, of dollars spent to maintain this facade. It's like our Homeland Security is to America what MB is to Middle East, both funded by the American taxpayer.
