good question. A special prosecuter can be called for by the Attorney General or Congress. Next question is does it have to go to a vote in Congress or can just any congresscritter ask for one? We certainly can’t let Holder assign one.
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.”
I would think Issa calls for a committee vote? I can’t imagine Cummings doing anything but cover for Obama and report to him. I saw Cummings speaking with the asst AG like they were BUDS before the last hearing.
