And as for 'executive privilege' just as the SCOTUS will tear down Obamacare, there is precedent for calling BHO out on his latest outrage:<br /><br /><a href="http://blog.heritage.org/2012/06/20/fast-and-furious-executive-privilege-is-illegitimate-to-shield-wrongdoing/" rel="nofollow">"First, the Supreme Court in United States v. Nixon (1974) held that executive privilege cannot be invoked at all if the purpose is to shield wrongdoing. The courts held that Nixon’s purported invocation of executive privilege was illegitimate, in part, for that reason. There is reason to suspect that this might be the case in the Fast and Furious cover-up and stonewalling effort. Congress needs to get to the bottom of that question to prevent an illegal invocation of executive privilege and further abuses of power. That will require an index of the withheld documents and an explanation of why each of them is covered by executive privilege—and more."</a>Gang of Onenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-66250018027019311212012-06-21T01:59:05.396-05:002012-06-21T01:59:05.396-05:00"Oh yeah, presidential candidate Barack F.
