You still seem to be having difficulty distinguishing what I'm saying through your partisan filter. I didn't take sides. I just pointed out that your knee-jerk impulse to try and bury the situation with ridicule might be ill-advised, that there are Constitutional questions that can't be swept under the rug so easily.

Try to reconcile this: If I'm being partisan, why would I want to potentially shield Republican Congressmen who might in the future be under investigation? At the present time the number of Republicans under investigation is greater than the number of Democrats (no partisan meaning there, just that one party's in power and has more opportunity to profit); why would I want to help them if I'm just being partisan?

If you really want me to share your outrage, it'll have to be on my terms. Consider this quote from that blog you linked, in the context of what I've written lately about the RNC having slipped the leash:

Congress already has enough problems with corruption and scandal without adding even more arrogance to top it. If the leadership wants to argue that their status as elected officials somehow gives them the ability to disregard subpoenas and court orders, then the American people may want to trade that leadership to ensure that Congress understands that it operates under the same laws as the rest of us. Hastert and Boehner do not argue against an imperial presidency, but rather they are arguing for an untouchable political elite, where our elected officials risk nothing by taking bribes and selling their votes to the highest bidder. After all, the evidence of those transactions will almost always reside in their offices -- and if they can ignore duly executed subpoenas and search warrants, then they can sell themselves at will.

I've noted that arrogance from the day that Republicans took Washington, but for the longest time Republican unity held and the Republican politicians presented a united front against the Constitution. But now that the unity's crumbling, the same arrogance seems to be leading to internecine warfare, Republican White House against Republican Congress. It's all consistent, the same arrogance and overreaching ambition, manifested under changed and more stressful circumstances. One-party rule usually turns out this way.

OK, now I share your outrage. Happier?
