I can very well understand the reluctance of an appointed official - like John Roberts or James Comey - to play kingmaker and change history. I would feel the same way. In the end, the public gets - and should get - what they vote for. But, that said, those individuals are appointed - and get paid - to do their job. Even if it's hard. It appears that failing to ask a government official under investigation a simple question - WHY they took actions that led to that investigation - crosses the line. I include the republicans in it also. All the time and money wasted on years of Issa and Gowdy hearings, nothing..... Remember when the democrats said Bush's war was illegal? They could have stopped it and didn't. Republicans can stop the democrats and choose not to. I changed my view during Tarp. A trillion bucks Bush redirected by executive order in which the House and Elizabeth Warren, chairman of the Tarp oversight committee, looked the other way. Ask yourself why....... There's only one answer that fits imho.
