Bushoviks declare Presidential shit doesn't stink - EVER!
So Congress just might as well give up sniffing around. The latest declaration, reported in the WaPo, is that no US Attorney can pursue a contempt case regarding executive privilege because the Preznit himself has declared executive privilege. And he tells his stooge Fredo not to do it and Fredo tells the US Attorneys not to do it and it doesn't get done. All so neat, and you thought Our Dear Embattled Leader kept Fredo around because he liked the little beaner. And for those who don't believe in the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, consider this.
Impeachment is beginning to seem way too lenient for this crew.
But administration officials argued yesterday that Congress has no power to force a U.S. attorney to pursue contempt charges in cases, such as the prosecutor firings, in which the president has declared that testimony or documents are protected from release by executive privilege. Officials pointed to a Justice Department legal opinion during the Reagan administration, which made the same argument in a case that was never resolved by the courts.They have been trying to run this shit for at least 20 years.
Impeachment is beginning to seem way too lenient for this crew.
