Because an investigation is being performed doesn't give the investigator carte blanche to ask for any information they may seek. Sensitive documents could contain information unrelated to the case that could prove embarrassing especially if used for political reasons.
There should be no doubt that Issa is seeking payback for how the Democratically controlled House treated the Bush Administration with multiple contempt votes, including where the GOP walked out.
If you want to get into a discussion about Attorney Generals misleading Congress, I'd love to bring up Gonzales.
So keep the accusations to where they should be and with the facts that we do know. The initial assertion that Republicans are somehow more responsible to their constituents is laughable.
