Obama Tries to Protect Holder With Executive Privilege
Michelle Obama's Mirror ^ | 6-20-2012 | MOTUS

Posted on 06/20/2012 7:38:53 AM PDT by NOBO2012

...Butt getting back to the violence in Rahm’s Chicagoland: can you believe it? 7 dead, 35 wounded - just last weekend! I know it has nothing to do with the fact that the Illinois, unlike almost every other state, makes it nearly impossible to own a gun…unless you’re a criminal. Is it any wonder that our Attorney General wants to demonstrate that all those guns coming in from Mexico (or is that the other way around? I get confused) via the Fast and Furious program are reason enough to eliminate that pesky Second Amendment right to bear arms.

And Ricky feels so strongly about disarming law-abiding citizens that he’s even willing to con the American people to state on the record that he’s done nothing to deceive, mislead or stonewall Congress. As is always the case in these situations, it depends on what your meaning of “deceive” “mislead” and “stonewall” is. Apparently Big Guy and Ricky don’t see it the same way as Congress so I guess we’re going to have that unseemly contempt vote later today. Unless the R-words accept Big Guy’s latest scam dodge bluff move granting Ricky Executive Privilege.

He’s with me, so he gets a pass, got it? ‘Cuz I WON.

Exexcutive Privilige will no more protect Eric Holder than it protected Richard Nixon.

The congress has the right to that information as part of its oversight requirements.

If they can’t oversee what the Justice Departments been up too.Why have a Congress?

I’ll bet if a Republican President was in the Oval Office and Barack the Kenyan “had a son that looked just like” Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, ALL HELL WOULD BE BREAKING LOOSE RIGHT NOW!!!

Do we have a Congress? Do we have a House? What in the hell do we have. NOTHING! DAMN WE HAVE NOTHING! We are run by criminals in the entire Federal Government. Civil War will happen if King Obama and Holder are not impeached.

That is the question du jour in the oval office.

It’s funny to watch the dems on this committee trying to spin this. Good luck! This looks bad for you in so many ways.

“Executive Priviledge” proves the lie that Obama did not authorize F&F.

Can’t assert a priviledge over something you didn’t know about.

Gee, who would’ve thunk, put criminals in positions of unrestrained political power and unrestrained crime occurs. Foolish to think the congress criminals will seriously try to hold the WH criminals to account. If justice and equal enforcement of the law is to ever reemerge in the US it will take action from the common people to exact their power over this currently corrupted political system.

Let’s have a poll (or pole?): Who is going to make the first statement on this outrage, Palin or Romney?

HUGE problem here:

If the President can invoke Executive Privilege it would mean that there was some communication between the President and the DOJ or others regarding Fast & Furious. Ok, then if that is the case, Holder must be immediately charged with Perjury.

Also, it would be a PR nightmare as all the commies in this administration have denied the President was ever involved.

On the other hand, if the President cannot invoke Executive Privilege because he was not in communication then he is obstructing congress and Holder MUST provide the documents requested.

Either way, the WH should lose big in the PR arena unless we the people ignore this like the MSM surely will.

In any event, the only legal way our enemy within President CANNOT invoke E.P. UNLESS HE WAS IN THE COMMUNICATION LOOP.

People get involved with this. Call your local radio talk show programs. Write letters/e-mails to your TV stations. Write to your representatives DEMANDING the rules of Executive Privilege be followed. Don’t just sit and read what other have done.

Probably the main objective is to stall until after the election.

Obama probably knew and approved the program to begin with, so Holder is protecting his boss. If it were not for the one American border guard killed, the story would have gotten no attention--the media doesn't care about the 300 dead Mexicans as a result of the program. Not that they care about Brian Terry either.

Why would we possibly need those? We have the MSM, as we have had for decades./S It is only now that the new media is showing some light on Democrat crimes, that there appears to be a need for a House and a Senate.

You are more than welcome to use those words. I’m listening to Rush now and wish he would advocate the same!

Yesterday I heard that Boehner was ‘on the fence’ about Issa calling for a contempt vote in the House and I thought I would scream! Now that the drums are beating loudly, he’s being dragged along - ugh.
