WH rejects subpoena request for Solyndra docs

WH rejects subpoena request for Solyndra docs. “I can only conclude that your decision to issue a subpoena, authorized by a party-line vote, was driven more by partisan politics than a legitimate effort to conduct a responsible investigation…” Huh? Wouldn’t a “responsible” investigation also issue a subpoena when the White House refuses to deliver all the requested documents? They are now in contempt of Congress. The last 3 years seems like a bad Steven Seagal movie – I can’t wait to see the end.

  • Really people, please! This is nothing but partisan harrassment, and probably racist too! Let poor President Obama get on with the job of governing this great land of ours, and let's all direct our attention to IMPORTANT issues, like the recent shocking allegation that Herman Cain once took a whiz in the deep rough by the 12th green.

  • Most transparent administration my ass, this is the most corrupt and hidden ever and that is saying and doing a lot to accomplish that little feature.

  • The only unreasonable burden from this administration has been on us!!!! So what's "Dear Leader's" next excuse? Producing the required Documents might cut into his golf game?

      • You're welcome RW. You should see some of the stuff in my insomnia files, I get pretty warped when the sleep demons strike.

        (I think that old Hollywood Squares "you fool" clip with Gilbert is still on YouTube, it's pretty funny)

  • Can he do that? I thought no one was above the law. Can He be sent to jail for that? Is there a Lawyer in the house??

  • And so kiddies, the lying, denying and shredding begins in earnest....and at an accelerated rate.....He is getting desperate when he drags the constitution into it, since he could give a rats ass about the constitution...Then suddenly he believes in the constitution....must have been one help of an epiphany....

  • I like the response. "White House fires off letter scolding House Republicans, saying demand for more Solyndra documents would put an 'unreasonable burden on the president's ability to meet his constitutional duties.'" Since when does Obama give a hoot about the Constitution?

  • Out of control administration. I hope it is found in contempt of Congress and that the GOP actually acts on this abuse of power.
