BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: I want you to listen to this. This is your Obama regime. This is Darrell Issa at the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on the GSA spending. The Region 9 commissioner / acting administrator Jeff Neely, who is currently on administrative leave, testified. And during the Q&A, Neely and Darrell Issa had this exchange...
NEELY: Chairman, on the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my Fifth Amendment constitutional privilege.
ISSSA: Mr. Neely, did you attend the 2010 Western Regional Conference in Las Vegas?
NEELY: Mr. Chairman, on the advice of my counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my Fifth Amendment constitutional privilege.
ISSSA: Mr. Neely, did you approve the funding for the 2010 Western Regional Conference?
NEELY: Mr. Chairman, on the advice of my counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my Fifth Amendment constitutional privilege.
ISSSA: Just a few more. Mr. Neely, what was the original budget for that conference?
NEELY: Mr. Chairman, on the advice of my counsel I respectfully decline to answer based upon my Fifth Amendment constitutional privilege.
RUSH: This is the Region 9 commissioner /acting administrator Jeff Neely on administrative leave from the General Services Administration. He's refusing to answer these questions. He pleads the fifth to every question. That's your Obama regime in action.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Folks, I have to tell you: If the regime will stonewall something as relatively innocuous as the GSA scandal, how are we ever gonna get to the truth on something like Fast and Furious? Because this is chump change compared to the Fast and Furious scandal, and they're stonewalling this. As far as I know, nobody died from GSA spending and I'm sure that all the contraceptives were paid for out of the GSA spending, 'cause that was a lot of money and a lot of sex going on. I don't think anybody died. That's not true of Fast and Furious.
END TRANSCRIPT
Issa’s a freaking pit bull — don’t unlock until you see presidential boxers!
5th = GUILTY
Issa may be a “Pit Bull” but considering some recent articles....the WEEPER of the House...Boehner, seems to have selectively neutered Issa!
I LOATHE Boehner!
Times like this, and especially the F&F debacle, Issa needs to get Jack Bauer or Bryan Mills(Liam Neesom in Taken). Nothing like railroad spikes in the thighs and some AC power to get to the truth.
correct
Boner has also silenced the Tea Party victors in to total submission. It’s like November 2010 never happened.
We’re still funding the brutal and ghastly slaughter of 3,300 unborn and newly born babies every day, and we’re letting the absolute idiot in our White House destroy our nation. It would be too much to ask of Boner being humiliated in November and retired to an ash heap somewhere near Columbus.
--H.L. Mencken, The Baltimore Evening Sun, July 26, 1920
Just so you know, that's not the way it works in the United States.
But your employer should be able to dismiss you for any reason at all, and certainly for failing to answer reasonable questions. This Administrator is an employee of the People of the United States, and our Representatives were asking him those reasonable questions.
"Administrative leave" is BS, and I wouldn't be surprised if this guy is still being paid, and benefits continuing while on this "administrative leave." (Ditto whoring Secret Service agents.)

It's only a matter of time before Boehner shuts Issa down again.
Would really like to know what the *Rats* have on Boehner, corruption or sex scandal, probably both if I were to guess.
I always wish that just for fun, the questioner would mess a little with the respondant. The question could be something like “isn’t true that your counsel advised you to take the 5th for all questions posed to you today at this hearing?” That could evoke a number of comical responses. If the response was yes, then the answer contradicts the statement because, he is supposed to invoke the 5th for all responses. If the answer was no, then the response would also contradict the statement. If the answer was the statement, then the original statement would be uncertain because the respondent could not confirm what the counsel had advised him.
