Like Lois Learner, these demowomen want their ‘say’ but they won’t do it under oath.

"The officials did not want to be cited by name and would not discuss the health insurance rollout unless they were granted anonymity, the AP reported."

Under federal regs, these proceedings constitute an administrative matter. They can lose their jobs for not cooperating, but not their pensions. If handled as a criminal investigation, and they refuse to cooperate by invoking fifth amendment protections, they could lose their jobs AND their pensions, and face jail and fines, if found culpable. Roll of the dice, but first, it's up to the Repubs to issue subpoenas, put these people under oath, and declare proceedings as part of a criminal investigation with a view towards prosecution. If you expect anybody to "sing," you have to put them under extreme pressure, and offer immunity. As it stands now, there's no incentive to cooperate.
