Obama and Due Process
Red State, by Alex Parker
Original Article
On Sunday, Republican Georgia Sen. David Perdue joined Meet the Press’s Chuck Todd to talk about the upcoming Senate trial of one Donald J. Trump. And Chuck had a very meaty question about Obama.
<snip>
...With all the hubbub over whether this whole Ukraine/impeachment thing’s a big scam, Chuck asked David is he’d be comfortable defending Barack Obama if the circumstances were the same.
Ready, set…go David:
“In Fast and Furious, he [Obama] did exactly this. He withheld evidence from the House of Representatives, and the Republicans decided that it was not obstruction of Congress. The Democrats agreed, and we did not pursue it. Nancy Pelosi, Nadler, all said that that was not obstruction. And yet, in this case, when the President decides to use executive privilege, they now — all of a sudden — say, ‘Oh, no. That is obstruction of Congress.'”
