Several more members of Congress have joined colleagues calling for Attorney General Eric Holder’s immediate resignation. The total number is now 43.

Immediately before a Tuesday press conference featuring some of those legislators, Pennsylvania Republican Rep. Tim Murphy confirmed to The Daily Caller that he believes it’s time for Holder to go.

New York Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle joined the choir during the news conference itself, and New Mexico Rep. Steven Pearce issued a statement for the presser demanding Holder’s resignation. Both are Republicans.

“Today, I stand with over 40 other Members of the United States Congress in calling for the resignation of United States Attorney General Eric Holder,â€

Until a Democrat calls for his resignation it will continued to be played as a political assault to talk over and drown out the the specifics.

I don't think the Democrats are going to allow their control of the law enforcement agency of this country to be lost. If they lose Holder they might not be able to direct which of the laws that they want enforced or sue states for enforcing them and the Justice Department might lose the 114 new hires that are fresh off of the ACLU farm and Leftist Activist groups.
