Huckabee: Time for Holder to go

This transcript is automatically generated

-- -- -- Then it's time for the attorney general to do the president and the country an important service and step down.

Now I don't say that lightly and I don't say -- because of his political affiliation being different than mine.

I've come to refer to -- -- as simply Eric Holder but Eric with holder.

Because he has become the master of withholding documents information and truth from the house the senate and the American public.

In an administration that pledged transparency.

The Department of Justice has operated not merely opaque -- but behind the stone walls of stonewalling.

After eighteen months numerous hearings and threats of contempt of congress charges regarding the disastrous fast and furious program.

That used American taxpayer money to buy guns.

Put him in the hands of Mexican drug dealers.

He's released just over 7000 documents of a 140000.

That congress has requested.

300 Mexicans are dead and one American Border Patrol agent is dead.

He has yet to answer what he knew and when he knew it about this disgusting fiasco.

Now while he arms Mexican drug lords on the Arizona border.

He -- the state of Arizona for simply attempting to do what the federal agencies have miserably failed to do protect our borders.

He sued Florida.

Because that states trying to remove the names of dead people from voter rolls -- -- the state of Texas because it's duly elected legislature.

Rightfully refuses to spend their tax payers money to give blood money to organizations that kill unborn babies.

He refuses to defend parts of the defense of marriage act that he disagrees -- Even though the bill was passed overwhelmingly in a bipartisan vote and signed by President Bill Clinton in 1996.

When serious national security leaks in -- American military and intelligence personnel as well as foreign nationals who seek to help us fight terrorism.

He appoints a couple of his own Justice Department lawyers to look into it one of whom was a generous campaign contributor to President Obama.

Even though the individual might have impeccable integrity.

His -- doesn't pass the smell test.

Justice is supposed to be blind.

But this Justice Department.

Winks at the law the constitution.

And the authority of congress.

If the nation's chief attorney can't be trusted to follow the law and how in the world -- we explained that teenagers that they've got to do it.

I aspect that.

It's gonna be assumed that my call for Eric with holders wrecking resignation.

Is all about the election and -- partisan politics.

Actually.

It would be better politics for Republicans if with holder just holes on.

And he's too easy a target going into the heat of the election.

Now this isn't about the election.

It's about the country.

I'm less interest -- in his hurting President Obama then in hurting the rule of law and -- respect for the constitution.

You know I sometimes try to use humor -- are satire.

To get my point across.

But frankly.

I don't see anything funny about the contempt that Eric withhold -- seems to have not just for congress of the states but for we the people.

And it's time for him could go.
