Obama's executive order overruled

Scot Free

The king and his court has been overruled by a federal judge today. Try as he might to use his executive privilege to keep Operation Fast and Furious documents out of the hands of Congress, Obama will not get his way.

Judge Jackson

According to Politico, U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson made the ruling and public disclosures from the Department of Justice (DoJ) which, at times seems like an oxymoron term, will be made. 

The king and his court are appealing the ruling but hopefully, like the man who had the wrong leg amputated then the correct one removed and tried to sue and lost, Obama too will not have a leg to stand on.

Jackson's written response: "The Department itself has already publicly revealed the sum and substance of the very material it is now seeking to withhold. Since any harm that would flow from the disclosures sought here would be merely incremental, the records must be produced."

In 2012 the House voted to hold then-Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress for withholding part of the records, and even 17 Democrats supported that.

Perhaps there's hope for the country.

But the question is: what is Obama trying to hide?
