Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, R-MN claims that Attorney General Eric Holder was using the Fast and Furious gun running operation as a way to curb Second amendment rights.

The theory posed by some conservatives like Bachmann is that liberals will use the botched gun running investigation to begin a rallying cry for tougher gun control laws.

"No man is above the law. It doesn't matter if you are a janitor in a church basement or if you are the President of the United States, all of us have to be under the law and the same is true for Eric Holder," said Bachmann during an interview with Fox News.

Friday, the House voted to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt, but the Department of Justice is refusing to prosecute. Bachmann claims that the vote wasn't political.

"It looks like Eric Holder is in major trouble," added Bachmann.

She also believes that President Obama is covering for Holder by using executive privilege to keep documents regarding Fast and Furious away from Congress.
