Labrador makes national splash in clash with Holder at D.C. hearing

Idaho Congressman Raul Labrador made a big splash yesterday when he was questioning U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder about the "Fast and Furious" gun trafficking investigation; Labrador told Holder he was incompetent and should resign, and Holder scolded Labrador for being disrespectful and out of line. "Maybe this is the way you do things in Idaho or wherever you’re from,” Holder told him.
