Exactly!
“We certainly can’t let Holder assign one.”
Moreover, I am even concerned about who the Repubs might select. Issa needs to be brought into any discussion.
This story is flying so low under the radar that even Rush doesn’t understand its implications. If the conservative talk show hosts don’t get it, who will inform the public? Levin covered it yesterday, & he would be a natural to educate the public on the laws that were broken. I was told that Chris Plante covered it today (haven’t downloaded yet).
[BTW, Penelopesire, have you ever listened to his program?]
I posted the below on the Rush thread today when he mentioned the $ connection to Stimulus:
“I don’t think Rush understands the implications of F & F yet. Talking off headlines, and then he moves on. Hasn’t done his homework. His staff needs to write up a detailed report so he can get up to speed.”
Issa on Hannity radio now:
Tearing into Holder.
Said Melson’s attorney never stopped him in the closed-door testimony.
Said there have been many whistle-blowers.
Issa gets heavily redacted forms from Justice (some with zero info) and they say they have complied. Issa gets the same unredacted forms from other sources and compares. Says no reason for the redactions.
Mexico agents kept in the dark. When they would plug in the weapons number, they would get a “network error.”
I rarely listen to Hannity. Does he have transcripts? Issa’s interview should be transcribed.
I haven’t ever listened to Chris Plante..will check him out. I listen to Levin every single day...LOVE HIM!! I have all of his books and our small family foundation has been giving to his Landmark Legal for many many years.
The talk show guys have gotten lazy on this deal imho. It’s building slowly though, so have heart. Like someone else said..it may not be time for a special prosecuter yet because it’s not so public anymore after one is assigned. Issa needs to bring up the administration officials for some more hearings on CSPAN!!
