Obama/Holder’s plan might work
_________________________________________________________
According to Drudge, Holder is asking Obama to declare Executive Privilege.
I don’t think that will fly very well.
I recall that 2007 or 2008 there was similar standoff between Pelosi House judiciary (Conyers) and Bush administration and a few refused to testify under the same Privilege and so the Dems voted they were in contempt of congress and referred it to justice department who ignored it.
Then the whole thing went away till Holder took over, then Rove negotiated something so he wouldnt have to testify on TV.
My guess is that after a House vote Republicans will be out of options as long as obama is POTUS.
