Contempt for Congress....looking at the data a large part of the US citizens have contempt for congress and it's not their face the want to show them.

OTOH the entire Executive Branch believes they are above the law....Someone needs to wake them up soon!

Naw, a very strongly worded letter to his parents maybe.

"Interior Department spokesman Adam Fletcher criticized Hastings’ investigation, saying that it is “made up of an ever-changing and unsettled set of requests” and noting that DOI has given Hastings 2,000 pages of documents already."

LOL. How many pages did Sarah Palin give up? 25,000+ if I recall correctly, and that was without a massive staff.

Nothing while Obama is in office.

What exactly is the consequence of being held in contempt of congress?

A teaching gig at an Ivy League School or a job on Wall Street.

We have a Congress and it does stuff?

As far as I can tell, every major action the Regime has taken has been designed to stand in the exact point that is unconstitutional. Every major appointment, every major bill, every initiative, every INaction.

Every. Single. One.

We will work together to ensure the public trust and establish a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration. Openness will strengthen our democracy and promote efficiency and effectiveness in Government."

“Every. Single. One.”

Plus, every single promise has been broken or acted on in the exact opposite of his promise. He is a liar: a friggin liar. If he opens his mouth you know a lie will soon come.

So he’s declared in contempt of Congress. So what?? His boss holds the U. S. Constitution in contempt, and day by day continues to trash it. Big Deal!
