Holders "Impending constitutional crisis"

As Eric Holder faces significant backlash over the "Fast and Furious" ordeal, he has still managed to foreward responsibility on those who seek the truth.  Eric Holder is quoted as saying  “I want to make it very clear that I am offering — I myself — to sit down with the Speaker, the chairman, with you, whoever, to try and work our way through this in an attempt to avoid a constitutional crisis, and come up with ways, creative ways, in which to make this material available. But I’ve got to have a willing partner. I’ve extended my hand, and I’m waiting to hear back,” Holder said in response to a question posed by Grassley.  This issue is not a matter of truth or dare or even the impending consequences he may face over contempt, but of constitutional backlash to his office and the Obama administration.  The Senate Judiciary is the committee that has oversight of the Attorney Generals office, which in this case is have yet to establish if there is a clear violation of the constitutional regarding support of operations that circumvent congressional approval.  As it stands 10 Democrats
and 8 Republicans are on the committee and the ranking leader is from the controlling party of the Senate.  Just like the speaker of the house, this committee has its own rules regarding what to investigate or not.  The Judiciary Act of 1789 created the Office of the Attorney General which evolved over the years into the head of the Department of Justice and chief law enforcement officer of the Federal Government.  The point here is that this office,  being the 4th office created by congress, has just as much respect as does the presidents office.  And yet we have here a man who runs the largest law office in the world and still is unwilling to abide by the constitution to uphold the law, which in this case is to release court ordered documents.  He's refused to enforce illegal immigration, refused to release documents ordered by a court and has refused to investigate the legality of drone strikes on american citizens abroad.  The constitutional crisis here is one of malice and animosity towards the constitution stemming from the highest office's in the land.

MLK Jr. would be ashamed of this man

If  you grew up in the 90's and anywhere remotely near LA, then the name Rodney King means a whole lot.  But in the minutes before Rodney King had died, he indulged himself in the very things that got him his beating the first time.  So what shall we say about this so called legend?  Well, he was a loser in life and now in death.  The memory of this man will fade away into nothingness, while the real victims, the whites who were beat to near death in LA will never let it go.  In the age where the black community is free to be racist, violent, and painfully overburdening in cases where they cannot contribute properly to our nation, one must set back and wonder just what the hell are they doing but causing more pain for themselves by looking up to men like this as a legend or hero.  The race baters such as: Rev. Jackson, Rev Wright, and Al Sharpton have created just as much, if not more, to destroy the black image than Rodney King did.  MLK would be ashamed to see such people as the pillers of the black community. 

Social Issues and Politics

So I asked a collegue today at work why the gay comumnity chose the rainbow as their icon. Not to my surprise I got the same response as all the others give, and it was I dont know where it came from or what it means.  This is one of the questions Rush asked last week as well.  Anyone have an answer?
