They are BOTH weasels. One won't answer the question as usual and the other seems to think they should be exempt from this.

"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State." - Joseph Goebbels Nazi minister of propaganda

If congress gets any inkling the DOJ was spying on them, DC will go into supernova meltdown mode. I love it.

I thought this was suppose to be the most transparent administration in history?

I thought President Obama said that only those with things to hide do not come forward with the truth?

Yes and just take them at their word because they say they are transparent.

Members of Congress have been wiretapped, videotapped and otherwised surveiled upon and prosecuted. If I were Holder I wouldn't answer these questions, either. Cross-dresser J. Edgar kept files on these folks, and caused his own brand of fear to take hold.
