People on this board have been criticizing Issa for his pace, but I think he has been masterful. He is playing chess, thinking three moves ahead; Obama and such are playing an impulsive game of checkers.

Looks to me like Issa wasn’t the one escalating the potential for a confrontation.
The more I see the more I am sure Obama wants to find some confrontation so big as to take the economy off the table and let him demagog the issue into President for Life, w/o elections, congress or the courts to second guess his reign.
Question: Why could not Obama use Issa's investigation as a "racist" attack on his presidency? Do you think Issa's timing is such that F&F will come to a head after the November elections?
Because he has played that card so often that only the kool-aid drinkers will swallow it.
Issa will wrap this before the election. IMHO.
