I think he does have them and is holding the card close to his chest. I don’t think he would be this forceful if he didn’t.
*at least I hope*
There have been numerous reports that Issa has an internal source who has provided copies of emails. Those apparently can’t be used so he’s seeking to get official versions of them.
I don’t think Issa has all of the documents he requested, but I think he has enough of them. And he knows or at least strongly suspects from what he does have what else exists that he doesn’t.
I also think 0bama & Holder know he has some of the documents, but they are in a dither because they don’t know what he does have and what he doesn’t.
Some people on this forum are mad at Issa because he doesn’t just go storm the White Hut & DOJ with his Mac-10’s spraying bullets. Well, this is DC politics and not a Chuck Norris movie. I think Issa’s maneuvering and timing are masterful. He is playing a chess game with two hacks who can’t play Candyland. Chess requires lots of patience, but I can see this playing out to the final checkmate. Sometime around September or October, and that would suit me fine.
