First of all the GOP only controls the House, not all of Congress.

Second, historically it has been very rare for The House to issue a Contempt citation against any Administration and may even be impossible with a split Congress, Senate being majority Dem.

I personally would cite nobama and holder with every breath, but I and we, are not privy to or aware of all the goings on with Congress.

Even if Contempt citation was issued, it would be well beyond the election before anything changed. If nobama re-wins, he will just flip Congress and us the bird and keep on going until either we or the Generals take control by whatever mean is necessary.

First of all I am not a complete moron, but I do know that the House controls the money. They so far have presided over the biggest spending spree in history.

The House has the Only Constitutional authority to produce spending bills, historically they have been remiss in their obligation.

Second no congress can be bound by a preceding congress, they have all the power they need, they curiously refuse to use it. I know the administration would ignore the Contempt citation, that should net be reason to ignore the fact that they are in contempt,the Senate has nothing to do with it.

The power of the purse was given to Congress for a reason by the founders, Boehner would be unwise to ignore that.
