The "Rat Bastard" as Kull calls him is pretty much in the clear. Even if the full House votes a contempt citation, it then goes for investigation by the very Justice Dept the Congress found in contempt. Talk about a governmental circle jerk. If it goes to court, each of the thousands upon thousands of documents claimed to be protected by executive privilege must be adjudicated individually - a process that won't be complete until all involved will be long out of office. Issa and Boehner are wimps - this should have been started over a year ago, when Holder first denied full access to the documents surrounding Fast & Furious. You can also expect the Republicans to to totally blow the PR game - watch Obama come out smelling like a rose. Issa and Boehner, by delaying this until the last possible moment, have clumsily made sure it would not affect the election.
