“And what will happen on Wednesday?”
Nothing.
The lack of consequences for the AG says a LOT about the R leadership.
Then again, so did their capitulation on raising the debt limit last summer.
And what will happen on Wednesday?
Boehner and Holder and Obama will be lighting them up on the 13th tee.....
I think the oversight committee will vote to hold Holder in contempt. And then Holder will produce more documents before the full house votes to lock his butt up.
Obama has been so successful at tying up the courts, that they are thinking they can stonewall Congress and claim separation of powers. They are about to find out that only works for a little while.
I fear Issa may not have the complete support of the leadership to take it as far as he my wish. That said, given Obama’s (personal) approval rating is high, and the media most of the institutions of this country are under the control of liberals, the GOP has a tough situation here. Add to that this issue (Fast and Furious) has NOT been extensively covered by the media - the Dems/media could frame whatever happens anyway they want, given most people know nothing about this.
This isn’t Watergate and the extensive coverage it got. That boy in the Jiffy Pop balloon story a few years back (I know he wssn’t in it, BTW) got more network news coverage than Fast and Furious.
