Holder Scolds Issa for 'Inappropriate' and 'Shameful' Conduct at House Hearing

Frustrations boiled over at a House hearing on Wednesday when Attorney General Eric Holder let Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) know exactly how he felt about the "shameful" way the lawmaker was conducting himself as a member of Congress.

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing, Issa suggested that the Department of Justice had violated the Federal Records Act during discussions with Labor Secretary nominee Tom Perez, and that President Barack Obama's administration was covering up the crime.

But as Holder tried to reply to Issa, he was interrupted by the California Republican.

"No, no, that's what you typically do," the attorney general shot back. "No, I'm not going to stop talking now."
