ChattahBox)—Right-wing activist Andrew Breitbart of BigGovernment.com and other conservative anti-Obama websites, made a bizarre appearance on Fox News’ Sean Hannity Thursday night, issuing a direct threat, approaching blackmail, to the United States Attorney General, Eric Holder. Breitbart is angry that Attorney General Holder has not opened a federal investigation into ACORN and he issued a threat of releasing more tapes during the 2010 elections, unless Holder complies with his demands.

Breitbart together with conservative operatives James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles, released another heavily edited ACORN tape this week, which seems to show an ACORN employee assisting the two with an illegal prostitution scheme.

Breitbart said, he was “forced” to release another tape due to the lack of a federal investigation into what he calls a “dangerous organization.”

“Congress didn’t come in to investigate them—obviously not the Attorney General’s office. And they’ve now realized— let’s get back into business, because they’ve realized that the dust settled and they were not being investigated. It was Hannah and James and me who were being investigated. That’s why we’ve been forced to offer this latest tape.”

Breitbart then issued his angry threat against Attorney General Holder and the Obama administration:

“And this message is to Attorney General Holder: I want you to know we have more tapes–its not just ACORN. And we’re going to hold out until the next election cycle — or else, if you want to do a clean investigation, we will give you the rest of what we have. We will comply with you. We will give you the documentation we have from countless ACORN whistleblowers who want to come forward, but are fearful of this organization and the retribution — that they fear that this is a dangerous organization.”

“So if you will get into an investigation, we will give you the tapes, and if you don’t give us the tapes , we will revisit these tapes come election time.”

1. Oh, cool. Justice by blackmail, and

government by tantrum.

2. It's blackmail by Photoshop.

I'm sure Holder is shaking in his boots. :)

3. Or else what?

Maybe he should be investigated.

4. Call his bluff--subpoena the unedited tapes and emails

between him and O'Keefe.

5. Who's O'Keefe?

6. It's in the OP

The guy who made the film.

7. What kind of investigation has something where you hold back the supposed evidence?

This stinks to high heaven.

[prolesunited]

10. Of course is does

It's the birth certificate crap all over again. Claim you have secret evidence and then rally the troops behind your false claims. It doesn't matter if you ever actually deliver or not.

8. While you're at it Mr. A.G. Holder....

I have it on good authority some senior government officials engaged in and directed the commission of war crimes, blatant violations of the Geneva conventions and every human rights abuse ever described. There is also a buttload of RICO worthy offenses by Wall St. and the banks (and a whole other crop of senior government officials involved).

Go nuts!

9. Holder should throw this idiot in jail

for threats against a justice officials and extortion.

11. Why doesn't he hand the tapes over to Holder if he is so concerned?

12. Lerkfish to Briebart: investigate Blackwater and KBR or else!

[Warpy]

13. Or else he's gonna do what?

Hold his breath until he turns blue and passes out?

The only people who are getting investigated are Giles and O'Keefe.

He can release as many doctored tapes as he wants. All those tapes will do is help convict Giles and O'Keefe.

14. Since bush allowed these nuts to run wild

they think that republicans are still in the majority. They have made democrats knuckle down to them since 1994 til Obama won (legally) the election that they are expecting them to keep it up.

Well I think it is time, democrats started their own outside group. Pick one of the absolute a**holes from Fox News and make their life absolutely positively miserable. Follow them to eateries, movies, where ever they go, carry signs. Don't do anything out of the way just protest silently and aggravate them to the max.

and then was recruited by Ariana for the HUFFPO.

16. Holder should Xerox a picture of his ass

and send it to Breitbart with "KISS IT" written on it.

17. Investigate Brietbart!

That's my suggestion. Sounds like blackmail to me?

Piss off, Lightfart .
