HEARINGS TODAY AT 1PM EASTERN ABOUT ERIC HOLDER LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY
[link to www.breitbart.com]



House Judiciary Committee chairman Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) told Breitbart News that his committee’s Department of Justice oversight hearing on Wednesday will focus on the lack of accountability throughout President Barack Obama’s administration and the Department of Justice. Holder is testifying at the hearing, beginning at 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday.

 “The one unifying theme that I think should be the subject of questions tomorrow is: ‘What has been done in the area of holding people who make these decisions accountable?’ ” Goodlatte said in a phone interview on Tuesday evening.
“It’s simply a matter of people higher up in the administration including the Attorney General and others in his Department and in other Departments that are investigated by the Justice Department saying ‘oh it was a lower level person who made that decision and I didn’t have anything to do with it. No one in a policy making position had anything to do with it.’ Then the question becomes so what have you done or are you doing to hold people accountable? Because, I find, when that’s not correct, when the people that are being held accountable say ‘well, I got orders from higher up’ then they start to say ‘well if I’m going to take a fall for this, I’m going to make sure the people know who else was involved in it.’”

Goodlatte added, “Accountability, I think, is something that has been lacking in many respects in many of these investigations thus far and that certainly applies to Fast and Furious, it certainly applies to Benghazi, and it may well apply to some of these more newly opened investigations and that is a place where I think the Attorney General needs to step up and if he doesn’t, he won’t be well thought of in terms of understanding what the public’s concerns are with each of these issues.”
The Judiciary Chairman went on to say that a wide range of topics will come up at the hearing, including the AP phone scandal, the IRS conservative and Tea Party targeting scandal, the Boston Marathon terrorist attacks, Assistant Attorney General for the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division Tom Perez’s nomination to be Obama’s next Labor Secretary, Benghazi and wasteful spending at the DOJ.

“There is so many things going on that it is hard to pinpoint one,” Goodlatte said when asked what to expect at the hearing. “This is an oversight hearing that we conduct on a regular basis, usually once a year. So it just happens that it’s occurring two days after the announcement of the truth, or at least some of the truth that we know, about the AP investigation and the subpoena and the warrant to obtain telephone toll information regarding 20 reporters over a two-month period of time. That’s a pretty broad subpoena. So, we have a lot questions about that and that certainly will be one thing.”

Will Eric only agree to testify if he is not under oath? It worked for Bush.

Or will it be his successful strategy of "I have presidential immunity".
