I was watching that play out and saying to my self OMG Issa that was brilliant! He can now compel her to testify. She is an attorney she knew or should have known. They could hold her in contempt.
Issa had better. Because if he doesn’t it will be crystal clear that his committee is a dog & pony show & nothing more.
I could be wrong, but I believe that’s where your praise on Issa falls apart. He won’t compel her to testify. He should have been ready on the spot to call her on it. He muffed it IMO.
I saw it the same way, I think Issa has a time bomb that he can set off now any time he wants.
It was brilliant but I think if he tries to compel her to testify, we'll hear a lot more about 'Executive Privilege'...if she is even in the country at all by that time.
