The GOP has been itching to impeach Eric Holder for years, whether for the made-up "Fast and Furious" conspiracy theory, or just because he's Obama's Attorney General, and also black.
But now Holder is about to leave office, so the GOP decided to use the Senate Confirmation Hearing of Loretta Lynch to throw shade on Holder. And they did it with complete nonsense and random statements that had nothing to do with Lynch or her career. Somebody please call them a Wahhhhhhmbulance!
There's nothing like a smart woman fending off drooling Republican morons. It's a thing of beauty. #LorettaLynch pic.twitter.com/efd2l8tjEc

— Karla Vanessa Zelaya (@HeelsNBooks) January 28, 2015These conservative senators are just looking to throw mud on the president and the AG. So very little to do with #LorettaLynch or her career
