I heard Arlen Specter Utter these words today and was amazed when he followed it up with the idea that Obama might stonewall them. In the first place since when does congress needs the permission of the president or any other citizen for that matter when it comes to a major investigation? This is absurd to say the least. Of course he’ll stonewall them, and if he they believe they have to have his permission to do this then they believe the president is immune from the law.
The president is not above the law. No man in America is supposed to be above the law. Once again it only shows that our congress people are woefully inadequate to the task. These people are going to do nothing about fast and furious. They’re making it a spectacle not an investigation.
When will the insanity on Capitol Hill end. Do they really think we’re as stupid as they are? Since when does an investigator ask if the only they’re investigating will allow them to get the information that may implicate the one being investigated in a crime? The congress would have us believe they are powerless to do anything about Obama or his administration stonewalling them. This is absurd!
I keep hoping our leaders will actually show some strength, character or boldness regarding their equals. They certainly behave like strong men when it comes to enacting laws and regulations on the common man. They sure pulled in that athlete fast enough when they thought he had used steroids. Now there’s something deserving of the congresses attention. I wonder what they would have done to him if he refused to show up or answer their questions. I can’t help but think that they would have held him in contempt, with possible fines or jail.
It is clear that we are rapidly coming to two classes in the United States. No, it is not the rich and the poor as our politicians would have us believe, it is the ruling class and those who are ruled or subjugated. They believe they are above the law because they, and possibly we do not believe any longer or know that the constitution declares that there is to be equal justice. Sadly too many people in our nation no longer understand or know what the constitution even says any more.
