Frogmarching Eric

David Hardy tells us about an unused dungeon under the big dome. [Read]

Too bad no one has the guts to follow through, but in theory it could result in an armed standoff between the House Sergeant at Arms and DOJ--although I don't imagine tanks pumping CS gas into the monolith at 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW is a possibility at the moment...

Meanwhile, the AG is doing his best Jimmy Cagney "You lousy coppers will never take me alive!"  impersonation.

I'm not sure how the process works, but they passed a resolution authorizing their House attorney to take the matter to court, and we could see the federal bench in DC side with the administration. Then all SCOTUS has to do is nothing--refuse to hear it...

I'm just guessing here.  If you can enlighten us on a more likely process, please do.

An armed standoff? Why not? Kill 'em all, let God sort 'em out!

But it'll never happen. Even if Congress remands Holder to court, ultimately Obama and his court will protect him.

Citizenz' Arrest. 500 armed citizens (aka "the militia") take Holder into custody.
