Its D-Day for Atty. General Eric Holder.

The Republican controlled House is set to vote Thursday on whether to hold him in contempt in a battle over documents in the failed ATF Operation Fast and Furious.

Holder says he’s been cooperate from the get-go and sees the move as politically motivated.

Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) has insisted that Holder is withholding documents that could shed light on who was responsible in the Justice Department for giving the OK for the program that encouraged Arizona gun dealers to sell guns to straw purchasers , all with the hopes of tracing them to Mexican cartels.
