Executive Privilege

By Aaron Spuler | June 20, 2012 |

This morning, the White House asserted executive privilege over documents related to Operation ‘Fast and Furious,’ per Attorney General Eric Holder’s request.

    This is great news as I see it! Obama OWNS Fast and Furious now and will become whatever version of “GATE” cover up that the left now has to deal with. Instead of doing the investigation from the bottom up, there is now plenty of ’cause’ to investigate from the top down!

    If the right doesnt jump on this and run like hell with it, they are fools. Obama just didnt hand the right with a magazine full of ammo, he just gave them the entire ammo manufacturing plant!
