>>If there were some real underlying crime, OK, but all this is political crap from the Congress seeking to tear apart an action which the President HAS EVERY RIGHT TO TAKE WITHOUT EXPLANATION.<<

For the future, how do you know if the President has done something wrong if he can quash any investigation by claiming privilege? Are we gonna accept that argument from the next President?

That is a great question, and the reason I am very uncomfortable with this strategy.

We must be very careful not to leave the next Dim president with an unassailable Executive branch above all checks and balances.
