Love the sound of "Executive privilege" in the morning. Makes me smile, feel all good inside. It's like some evil incantation conjuring up Constitutional spirits who don't seem to like the phrase. Before you can say 'expletive deleted', the phrase and the phrase(s) its meant to convey, we'll hopefully (but not likely. I can dream, can't I?) get to see see Zero and Wookie take off from the White House lawn, "V" shaped hands outstretched, for the last time.

This formally puts Brian Terry’s death on the White House doorstep.

I’ll cut myself off there otherwise my language would get me the ban hammer.

Holder is not being thrown under the bus - the President has just chained himself to Holder.

Holder has some kind of leverage.

This is what Issa needs to say:

“We can only presume the President invoked EP to protect Mr. Holder and/or himself from incriminating information in those files. Therefore we will continue with every means possible to obtain all documents related to this botched gun-running operation.”

This kind of blows the MSM cover that we were merely running a law enforcement sting to nab the nasty narcoterrorists. Sure we were.

Well, now we KNOW F&F’s scandal goes right to POTUS. We don’t just have to suspect it anymore. What options are left to convict these treasonous bastards?

President Obama is using executive privilege to cover Attorney General Eric Holder from releasing Fast and Furious documents

Just impeach both these currupt bastards!!!
Yes, it won't go anyplace, but it will make the whole country (except the communists) feel better.

Not me. Scares the cr*p out of me. How is this not the beginning of the dictatorship of Barry the first?

I was worried that the election of 2016 would be postponed at the end of Barry I's 2nd term. Now I am worried that they will try something this year.

If Obama is setting the stage to resign ala Nixon? He took a big step today. Could he be so rattled and overwhelmed that he’s making decisions out of sheer political survival?

It’s time for another “OH, COME NOW” Award. Michelle Bachman is on the job! She’s going to write a resolution and have it signed by SOME members of congress telling obama he’s not above the law and he’s not above the constitution. Ms. Bachman says this will be a big warning to obama and will have teeth. All I can say is: “Oh, come now, Ms. Bachman.”
