why dont you think Congress can multi-task? This 110th Congress has been very active in enacting new legislation.
Why do you and Mike continue to believe that a law must be broken in order for Congress to fufill its oversight responsibility? Why do you believe its a trivial matter and a waste of time and money to ensure that the DoJ is managed competently and honestly?
Here is what Norm Orstein of the American Enterprise Institute said about Congressional oversight:
Were we really better off under the last Congress, which completed abrigated its oversight responsibilities?

DC, I understand that it is Congress' responsibility to oversee, but Host continues to post as if Carol Lams firing was something illegal, and it was not,
she was not prosecuting they way her EMPLOYERS want her to.
Host this is a thread about the attorney general, not Bush and his VP, what they said about Iraq, or how the VP is hung like a horse.
And Sen. Schumer is a jack ass, I have the displeasure of having to see his puss on my local news constantly.
And to answer your questions, no Cunningham was not acting like a traitor, he was acting like a thief.
Perhaps you haven't noticed but the investigation of Cunninghams cronies is still happening without the precious Lam.
