“In a letter to the Republican leaders of the committee, White House counsel Kathryn Ruemmler called the subpoena a partisan “vast fishing expedition” without legal justification.”

The attack against Cain was a prime example of a vast fishing expedition. Requesting the Solyndra documents is basic fact gathering.

Ruemmler is as much a legitimate lawyer as Obama was a constitutional scholar.

Both got law degrees but decided to ignore the laws when it was convenient for them.

This is OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE, CONTEMPT OF CONGRESS, AND DOWNRIGHT BULLSHIT.

The Committee decides what they want to look at, not the recipient of the subpoena. There is plenty of “legal justification” for this investigation, including cronyism, corruption, sheer stupidity, financial misconduct, possibly criminal misconduct (paybacks for donations thru the awarding of contracts), and pissing on the taxpayer.

I hope that the House Committee finds Ruemmler in Contempt of Congress and has her perp-walked to the nearest jail (and in DC, the women’s prison ain’t the Ritz).

Eventually Obama is going to jail, along with Holder, Chu, a lot of White House lawyers, some czars/Kommisars, and other presidential staff/advisors. It is gonna be some perp-walk.

Get your tomatoes ready, friends. It’s going to be a great day when we fill our prisons with Democrat crooks and Obama marxists.

Coming from an administration claiming that requiring documentation of Constitutional eligibility is extreme, can any of us be surprised by this?

The surprise is that they would be willing to show such blatant contempt for the rule of law - but then, they’ve had “conservative” commentators saying all along that only extremists would require legal documentation so they’re probably thinking the public has been lulled into thinking that the rule of law is “extreme”.

If the acorn that got Obama into office was lawlessness, the full-grown oak once he’s in office will also be lawlessness. If they could get away with it BEFORE Obama was able to install puppet law enforcement, with only a yawn or guffaw from “conservatives”, then they must have thought nothing could stop them once the puppet law enforcement was installed.

That’s what a lot of us were saying about why eligibility matters. But no... we were just extremist nuts barking up an irrelevant and distracting tree...

The nation needs to stand up and say, once and for all, that the rule of law matters and that documentation for the claims of elected officials MUST be standard operating procedure.
