Democrat backs placing Eric Holder in contempt Jim Matheson becomes first Democrats to back placing Eric Holder in contempt By Jordy Yager - 06/26/12 06:52 PM ET Rep. Jim Matheson (Utah) on Tuesday became the first Democrat to declare his support for placing Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress. "It just compounds the tragedy when both sides play politics instead of releasing the facts. The Terry family, the public and Congress deserve answers," said Matheson, according to The Salt Lake Tribine. "Sadly, it seems that it will take holding the attorney general in contempt to communicate that evasiveness is unacceptable." ....... thehill.com credit to brumar
