Evidently both "is" and "lying" do not have definitions........

The Kitchen Cabinet

Verbatim Post

It’s getting Hot & Hotter over Fast & Furious in the Congressional House Judiciary Committee where the Republicans are trying to sort out the sordid actions of the Justice Department during and after the “Gunwalking” program that has put thousands of high-powered weapons in the hands of the Mexican drug cartels.

Here Attorney General Holder is having just a bit of difficulty with the definition of the word “lying”.

According to the Daily Caller, the Democrats are acting like “defense attorneys trying to protect Attorney General Eric Holder, rather than pushing for accountability” over the deadly program.

Holder testified before the committee on Thursday about Fast and Furious and admitted he doesn’t plan to terminate anyone over the program that led to the murders of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry and at least 300 Mexican citizens. As Republicans continued to grill Holder, Texas Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee and others interjected with complaints about the nature of the questioning.

Poe thinks this kind of behavior is unacceptable, and told TheDC he thinks Holder can handle the tough questions on his own.

“The Democrats in the Judiciary Committee seem to be giving cover for Eric Holder,” Poe said during an interview outside the hearing room. “They keep interrupting when members of Congress or Republicans ask the tough questions. They act almost like defense lawyers to Eric Holder. I don’t think he needs any help. He can answer the questions on his own.”

Well, he can . . . once he figures out whether he’s lying or not — or somewhere in between?
