Title: Democratic lawmaker affirms support of subpoena for Holder on Fast and Furious
Post by: txradioguy on May 09, 2012, 04:51:32 AM

Democratic Rep. Joe Donnelly said Tuesday he supports efforts by the GOP-led House oversight committee to enforce a subpoena requiring Attorney General Eric Holder to release more documents related to the failed gun-tracking program known as Fast and Furious.

“One of the duties of Congress is to provide oversight of the executive branch,” Donnelly of Indiana told The Daily Caller. “There has been a serious allegation of federal law enforcement misconduct and we need to get to the bottom of this issue without playing partisan politics.”

GOP Rep. Darrell Issa, chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, issued the subpoena in October 2011 and days ago suggested the next option to get Holder to release additional documents might be declaring him in contempt of Congress.

Donnelly was among 31 House Democrats who last year wrote President Obama asking him to tell Holder and the Justice Department to comply with the congressional investigation into Fast and Furious.

They said in the letter both the program’s tactics and the withholding of information were “troubling.”

Holder will continue to obstruct, obfuscate, bob and weave, and otherwise tell Issa to go **** himself until Barry himself tells him to give it up.

Which he ain't gonna do.

Barry, Holder & Co. are above the law. It's Chicagoland thuggery, pure and simple.
