Not only is it mind-bending it's mind boggling. One thing I will give Republicans credit for is gumption. When Republicans were in the majority they had the gumption to impeach President Bill Clinton for trying to conceal a personal, consenual, sexual encounter from his wife, daughter and the country. What do Democrats do when they are in the majority? They let the right wing media bully them into taking impeachment off the table. It's mind boggling. Why indeed Suzanne,

The same standard ... where has that concept gone? Of course the assertion of "executive privilege" in this instance is ridiculous. What's even more ridiculous, however, is that the public is more willing to hold KR to account than are the public servants charged with acting on our behalves. Why do we have to go, hat in hand, to the Congress to beg them to do their jobs? It's mind-bending. And here we sit, waiting to see whether the Judiciary Committee is going to honor our polite request, by doing no more than its Constitutional duty of oversight. Yeesh.
