Why doesn't President Obama fire Eric Holder? He lied to Congress under oath. The bigger question, why is this receiving no press by ABC, NBC or CBS? Instead, three of our major news networks are running story after story to smear Herman Cain. What is happening to this country? We have a corrupt and/or incompetent Attorney General who is involved in a massive scandal where American border patrol agents have died, an Attorney General who lied under oath to Congress, and the American press, the supposed watchdogs are relentlessly pursuing a he said she said story about what Herman Cain did or didn't do with some floosy 15 years ago?

Attorney General Eric Holder said Tuesday that he has not spoken with the family of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry, who was killed in December by a group of assailants using at least two weapons tied to "Operation Fast and Furious," but he "certainly regrets" what happened.
Not offering an outright apology when prompted by a Republican senator to offer one, Holder, who was appearing Tuesday before Congress for the first time since his controversial testimony in May over the gun-running program, said he "can only imagine" the Terry family's pain. But, he said, it's "not fair to assume" that mistakes made during the botched operation "directly led" to Terry's death.
Holder was on the hot seat at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing in which he insisted that testimony he gave at his last appearance was accurate, but acknowledged that initial statements by the Justice Department after the issue became public were not.
