Cites executive privilege...

Sen. Tom Cotton accepted the challenge, but President Obama’s speechwriter and high-ranking foreign policy adviser Ben Rhodes ducked out of a hearing Tuesday where he was to explain whether he misled the country in pushing the Iran nuclear deal.

Let the games begin...

btw, Trump is probably gonna break the seal on the Iraq War, the Iran Deal, Saudi Arabia's involvement of 9/11, and of course, he's not gonna *****foot around with any Clinton corruption. He has nothing to personally gain from any of that.

Republicans write a letter for Rhodes to be fired and you're surprised that Rhodes decline the invite to go speak to the people who want him fired?

It's the citing of Exec privilege, which I have disdain for!

So much for 'The Most Transparent Administration In History'. Guess that must have been all part of the Hopey Changy thing (which is to say a fraud).

Rhodes shouldn't have shot his mouth off about his foreign policy based on his fiction, and especially not to a journalist. That's just stupid of him.

This will turn into yet another IRS type fiasco, with multiple requests for documentation, and multiple stalling tactics. Typical of the values and morals of this administration?

Today's political stunt, about all this is looking to become. No one is really looking for truth, this is all about political opportunism.

I think the opportune thing would be to make Congress more Democratic.

So your mad that the Executive of the United States has executive power?

No, only that they use it for nefarious purposes...as did Clinton. It's well known, if it's secret, and it's peace time, it's probably crooked!

Sorry dude, too much money and power is involved, for that.

No, it would just take the right wave of thought and you could have more Democrats in Congress.

You have very logical arguments Mickey; all the free loaders and criminals are because of Democrats. I don't see how you can freeload as a single male unless you want to go on SSI, and by go I mean go.
