The House Judiciary Committee hosted a Department of Homeland Security oversight hearing last Wednesday with Secretary Janet Napolitano.
As you may recall, the House Homeland Security Committee shares a certain amount of legislative jurisdiction with the House Judiciary Committee regarding the Department of Homeland Security.

It seems that the only one at the Mac daddy white house who knows anything about this mess is the people from the cleaning service.
Just a nice way of calling them all liars.
