LOL. Ya think? I just don’t want Romney to have to run against Hillary. She still has a lot of folks duped.

Under those precedents, the privilege, which is constitutionally rooted, could be invoked by the President when asked to produce documents or other materials or information that reflect presidential decisionmaking and deliberations that he believes should remain confidential.

"presidential decisionmaking and deliberations"

You can drive a legal and logical truck through that one. Presidential decision making and deliberations can occur prior to his direct involvement, by staffers and advisors. And those discussions may well be privileged. So the assertion of executive privilege does NOT mean that he was involved. He may well have been, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

I am not defending him. I think this move is a slimy effort to protect the AG that has had his back from the beginning.

It's a 4-corners offense prior to the election. A rope-a-dope strategy. And the mainstream press will wander away from it.

Or does Eric Holder have something on President Obama? The President's even appointing the likes of Holder looked suspicious. And Holder became a liability to Obama already a while back?

Obammy is involved.

But the big surprise will turn out to be - It was all Hillary Clinton's idea - she was the instigator, the perpetrator, the conductor, the leader.

there’s been “a tendency on the part of this administration to try to hide behind exec privilege every time there’s something a little shaky that’s taking place.”

- Barack Obama

“I think the administration would be best served by coming clean on this,”

- Barack Obama

“There doesn’t seem to be any national security issues involved..”

- Barack Obama

“I think the American people deserve to know what was going on there,”

- Barack Obama

He is. Up to his eyeballs. From the get-go.

Of course he was involved.

Anybody who doesn’t wear hams on their head can assume he was involved.

If he wasn’t, then Holder broke the law.
If he was, then both of them broke the law.

Only two possibilities here, just two slots in the toast machine!
