Too many spent the last year lying to Congress when asked about spying on Americans.

You either respect them and uphold them or you don't.

Obama has been trying to get this function moving for a while. maybe not as aggressively as he should, but as we all know, it's rather tough to get Congress to do anything.

You won't get an answer from bob....he is a hard core leftist (who says he is not, but look at all the drivel he pushes for obama) and will not answer a question such as this. he may answer your question with a question, but that is a bout as far as yo will get.

I don't know what's scandalous, but as the Prez stated often, the issue has reasons for discussion and more oversight. But, there is nothing to stop you from Issaizing it if you want.
