Issa’s quick.

It’s been, what? How long since we’ve known about this? Long enough to think it’s part of the Constitution and Lincoln was the first democrat president to sic the IRS on people?

Oh, that’s right, Lincoln was a Republican.

Someone should send their pet cat in to do Isaa’s job. It would be more efficient.

Precisely. If “we can” doesn’t quickly translate to “we will/we are”, then why posture?

BTTT!

“I am not persuaded by the legal musings of two attorneys,” said Oversight member Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), a lawyer himself. “Uttering certain talismanic words is not required before finding someone in contempt for the failure to answer questions. … Ms. Lerner was not going to answer any questions — regardless of whether she was directed to or not.”

Republican Oversight spokesman Frederick Hill called it partisan and “deeply flawed and at odds with the House’s own expert legal counsel to the committee.”

:: Rep. Jim Jordan confirmed to TheDC that the committee is “moving” toward contempt ::

And, THERE, you have it; movement toward contempt.

So what? Holder wears his contempt citation like a badge of honor. The House should arrest Lerner and hold her is whatever passes for a Congressional jail and then we would see if Obama would send in his enforcers to break her out.

Just remember folks, Cummings comes from the CBC wherein a female congresswoman believes the USA constitution is 400 years old, a newly elected senator that says he drove to Hawaii and a POTUS that believes the USA is made up of 57 states. Go figure!!!

What are the Republicans going to do when they have run of the Senate?

Oh, yeah, the same thing they do with majority in the House. Hire some do nothing to be the leader and hang out with lobbyists and the Chamber of Commerce, schmooze them with amnesty promises, allow the dems to be in charge and ruin our country and our childrens’ lives

Hmm. They wonder why conservatives don’t vote.

Anyone making fun of Green Eggs and Ham should read it. It might remind them of whom these guys are working for and get a little humility.

Issa.

BLECh!

It’s an election year and the drums must be pounded? I hope he means business. Would be glad if someone is held accountable.

Yep, Holder committed clear and unequivocal perjury. He continues to withhold F&F documents. The absolute only thing the left understands isn't words; it is countervailing FORCE.

They are apparently constipated as the so-called movement has yet to produce anything.

I wish I had nematocysts. They’d be great in a fight.
