Wow, what short memories neo-cons have.

I guess OP forgot about Karl Rove refusing to go before Congress about allegations that he and his White House allies dismissed U.S. attorneys and prosecuted officials who they saw as political opponents.

They're invoking Executive Privilege on the most innocuous legal, political bullshit about hiring and firing fucking judges, etc

This is about the "Fucking Bail Out Money"......that has apparently become nothing other than a Goddamn Chicago/White House Fucking Slush Fund at our Expense you God Damn Idiots...............!!!!!!....Sorry, got a little carried away

Yeah, Rove should have testified, too, and don't call me a damn neo-con.

Sure, executive privilege exists. If Obama wants to get away with this, he needs to assert it, and not pretend this is all just some giant partisan inconvenience. There are legitimate concerns here, not the least of which is a massive fraud perpetrated on the American taxpayer.

On August 1, 2007, Bush invoked the privilege for the fourth time in little over a month, this time rejecting a subpoena for Karl Rove. The subpoena would have required the President's Senior Advisor to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee in a probe over fired federal prosecutors. In a letter to Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy, Fielding claimed that "Mr. Rove, as an immediate presidential advisor, is immune from compelled congressional testimony about matters that arose during his tenure and that relate to his official duties in that capacity...."

Reader. ^This^.

Abso-fucking-lutely!! I'm so tired of seeing "legal precedent" and bullshit supreme court yah yah. It's ALL jacked up. They (wide variety of politicians, judges, anyone included) have lost their freaking minds.

I can see all the so-called legal jargon quoted all day long, but it does NOT make it RIGHT or even MORAL. Shit, 75% of the "laws and codes" on the books are complete idiotic horseshit.

"Unfortunately, we had to take this step after the White House has continued to slow walk the production of documents necessary for this investigation by only releasing selected documents and records," Rep. Cliff Stearns, R-Fla., chairman of the House panel investigating the matter, said in a statement.
The subpoena called on the White House to produce "all documents referring or relating in any way" to the Solyndra loan guarantee, as well as to investors in the company and to the company's financial condition.
The White House said in the letter Friday that "there is no basis for such a broad request," claiming the administration has acted in "good faith" to accommodate the requests so far.
Ruemmler said the White House is "willing" to continue working with the committee but suggested they "negotiate the scope" of the documents they want produced.
As Republicans pressed the White House for more information, new bankruptcy court documents also revealed that Solyndra executives were paid quarterly bonuses earlier this year worth up to $60,000 apiece.
Fox News' Ed Henry contributed to this report.

That is not the same thing. Executive privilege does not extend to emails and documents. Only a short list of advisor are covered and can refuse to testify in front of congress. Bush never refused to turn over documents.

Agreed, so when are we going to lock and step with their example. No taxes, no irs, they broke the system by example. They are stealing it blind so what will we do. They don't riot and neither should we, just do not jury duty and they can't do squat. Just how many people are they going to put into jail. You obey because.....you obey but they don't

The Whitehouse will be held in contempt of congress. I think the Whitehouse has contempt for the American People but that would be harder to prove.

Hopefully, the judicial branch and the legislative branch will combine forces and make the executive branch stop acting like a three year old.
