Why they went to Machen who is an 0bama appointee is beyond me

[chris37]

LMAO!

Looks like everyone has contempt for the stupid, useless, pointless John Boner congress...

They would have been better off voting themselves in contempt.

Anybody expect anything different
Without the MSM on it night after night like Wategate and Scooter Libby—Nothing will happen And despite naive Krauthamer saying the MSM will be forced to cover it it won’t happen

Hell Bush didn’t do anything about Sandy Bergers stealing and destroying a secret document from the Archives

Without the MSM there are NO issues
They create them

Grassley has asked for a response, we'll see if he gets one.

He'll get some verbiage, but it will amount to a single finger response.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

My, my, my! I wonder why?

[Truth29]

Laws? We don't need no stinkin laws.

It is the duty of U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Ronald Machen to prosecute contempt of Congress cases per an article I read here at FR predicting this exact scenario a week, or so ago. No I don’t have a link.

In the article they stated this would be what would happen with this administration’s record, and the U.S. Attorney of DC being appointed by Holder.

We are OFFICIALLY BANANA REPUBLIC....with NO bananas!

[Kaslin]

Yeah and your third party would achieve everything you want them to.

Why can't they get elected, then?

[Diogenesis]

The entire DOJ has fewer morals than Whitey Bulger,
who this week said the DOJ gave him a license to murder.

Did he get weapons, too?

Who didn’t?

[MestaMachine]

Oh, by the way...

“...Machen is the same guy Holder has appointed to investigate national security leaks, donated to President Obama’s campaign and was appointed to his current position by Obama.”

“We are OFFICIALLY BANANA REPUBLIC....with NO bananas!”

True, but we do have banana magazines.

[originalbuckeye]

Did anyone expect anything different? This Admin NEVER can find anything wrong when they investigate themselves anyway.............

[Errant]

[freeangel]

The attorney general and the potus MURDERED people and got away with it because they are colored.

[Kaslin]

An 0bama Appointee

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Looks like a criminal conspiracy to me.

[Kaslin]

Exactly

[chris37]

I don’t have a third party, don’t want one, and way to assume LOL!.

I’m a slave, just like you and everyone else.

Have a nice day.

IIRC, once someone is held in contempt of Congress, the Speaker can direct the House sergeant-at-arms to take the accused into custody, bring him to the House floor to answer the charges, and throw him in jail if he refuses to cooperate. Yes/No?
