Whenever Obama uses the word “notion” he is setting up a straw man. Here, it is the “notion” that anyone is being completely blocked from testifying. The issue is not “blocking” people per se, rather it is threatening them that there will be repercussions if they do.
Good catch with notion. Yup, that is exactly what he does...obfuscates, changes direction, never out right lies, always leaves a bit of wiggle room like in it depends on what “is” is. Meanwhile, the press lets him slide with NO direct follow up. For instance on when they do, when asking the IRS commissioner today about personnel actions over the scandal, she did not directly answer the question whether there would be any so the press guy came back is that a yes or no. She said she would not answer. Everyone of these wordsmiths needs be pulled out of their government leather chairs and put on trial ala Paris in 1789.
