Presidents in the past have maintained this sort of thing. It’s not new with Obama.

‘Presidents in the past have maintained this sort of thing. It’s not new with Obama.’

So what if other presidents have done this, we all know their is enough dirt on Obama to start a sod farm. Just because it has been done before does not give him a free pass. Might as well have said Bush done it, too. Sh1t.

Presidents in the past have committed crimes and abused their authority to cover them up.

Obama is different from every President we have had.

Give one example of someone in an administration out and out defying a Congressional subpoena. Just one.

I think the difference is that when presidents in the past did it, the press - and therefore, the public - got upset about it. With Obama, the press not only doesn’t get upset but doesn’t even report it, so therefore there’s no public pressure on the WH.

Note that one of the things Issa is investigating is that the press was forced to “correct” its reporting to reflect the WH version of things...

Also, there has never been an AG (including Robert Kennedy) who is more obviously simply using the federal justice system for political ends than Holder. One of these ends is to defend Obama to the mat. This itself then makes it very difficult for Congress to investigate anything involving the WH because there is not only no support or even neutrality, but outright obstructionism from the Justice Department.
