I hope everybody got to see Issa’s explanation to Cummings today, before their hearing. It was like Issa was talking to a little child .. and he might have been considered condescending, but to me it was Issa’s way of getting Cummings to accept the fact that the Oversight Committee is allowed to call people to appear and to answer questions.
Apparently, Cummings was upset; he ASSUMED the guy was being called before Issa because Issa already believed the guy was doing something wrong. And, as usual, Cummings was doing his best to shield the WH from any accountability.
MY QUESTION IS: Why is Cummings even in the room, sitting at the dias, asking anybody questions, and being snarky and snotty about anything .. MR. CUMMINGS IS A PARTY TO THE IRS INVESTIGATION - VIA HIS EMAIL TO THE IRS.
I’m still waiting for an answer. Maybe I’ll call Mr. Issa’s local office here in SoCal and see what they have to say about it.
“Why is Cummings even in the room”
Three guesses.
