(2,730 posts)point about this Congress when you have dishonest people serving in it like Issa. If they are doing shady things on this, then they will do it on other issues. They manufacture and fabricate things, just for their agendas. If they are lying on Domestic issues, then they will lie on Foreign issues concerning Life and Death. The U.S. does not need people like this deciding important issues for this Country. I don't think George W. Bush and Dick Cheney are the total blame for getting this country into an illegal War and lying on important issues. They had a Congress that helped them. It is going to happen again concerning Syria and Iran. President Obama needs to reassess what he is doing and the people pushing this country towards another War. He shouldn't be compromising with these people because they are too corrupt. If I had the power he has, and dealing with corrupt people like this, they would be ran out of office or in jail. If I had credible evidence they were breaking the laws, I wouldn't mind investigating them.
There are issues, that he is letting the Republicans off on, because he thinks it is for the good of the country. It is not for the good of the country to keep corrupt people in office. One example would be to go ahead and investigate the Bush Administration on Torture and lying about WMD. Another issue would be about voter suppression and rigging elections. It is all in the DOJ's purvue. Another would be about tax evasion and offshore accounts. I;I've also heard they gave Sheldon Adelson a pass on some issue when he could have been prosecuted. The DOJ could go ahead and prosecute the Banks. If they did so, the Republican Party and their benefactors would be hurting, instead of them trying to bring down the Obama Administration. They wouldn't have the upperhand if the Administration was more aggressive and vigilant, because the Republican Party would be too busy defending themselves in Court.
