Issa responds to Mark Levin's criticisms of House GOP Obama scandal investigations
Daily Caller ^ | 7/31/13 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 07/31/2013 3:02:29 PM PDT by Nachum

On Wednesday’s “Your World with Neil Cavuto,” House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa reacted to criticisms from conservative talk show host Mark Levin had made on the same program just 24 hours earlier.

In that appearance, Levin suggested the House Republican leadership wasn’t doing its due diligence in investigating the scandals involving the Obama administration, including the Benghazi terrorist attacks and the targeted audits of the Internal Revenue Service.

Issa explained to Cavuto that his investigators and his committee were doing its best to connect all the dots, but have been thwarted along the way by the White House and its various cabinet departments.

So Issa is admitting Obama is controlling whether or not the investigations begin or continue? Why have a congress or senate if nothing gets done in either unless it is by a totally out of control president?

Sorry Issa, but I feel Levin was at least 90% right. As typical, political figures are the slowest ass hats to get anything done. More pressure by Issa would happen if those that have committed purgery are charged now. If the communists Democrats would find that maybe jail could happen sooner than later they would move faster. BS talk never solves anything. This crap will go on for years.

Issa says it takes time to connect all of the dots. I’m afraid we don’t have very much time left, if at all :(

Rush Limbaugh is correct in saying that these hearings and investigations need to be taken out of the hands of congress.

The Vichy Republicans are all too easily so-called "thwarted."

What ISSA is NOT telling us is that Boehner has thwarted all of his investigations from day one.

They could start by getting that POS Lois Lerner indicted and in front of a grand jury. What’s the hold up? When someone takes the 5th in front of Congress I do believe that calls for a through investigation and every tool should be used to uncover the truth.

So many scandals and SO many traitorous asshats in Washington.

So, Issa, take the freaking gloves off! The problem with him and Congressmen like him is even if they are more or less on the right side, they’re so afraid of the media, getting criticized, getting audited, getting threats, not getting lucrative contracts, having their lives disturbed and on and on.

They have to realize it’s “do or die”. Our existence as a Constitutional Republic is at stake and their worried about getting their hands dirty or scraped up.

Issa needs to grow a pair. I guess he likes being invited to parties and other WDC high-life events, however. PUT SOMEONE IN JAIL, for our sake and the sake of the US. The racist idiot holder is in contempt...start with him. Issa...stop being so completely feckless.

We’ll all die of old age if these investigations continue at the same place they’re going now. And all the actors will have gotten Alzheimers, if they’re still alive.

Is Boehner being blackmailed? If so, he’s unfit to even be in Congress let alone be speaker of the House.

The criminal Chicago mob in the white hut would blackmail their own mothers if it would help Der Zero.
