Thank goodness Obama isn’t known for having principles.
Just 15 minutes before the House Oversight Committee vote against Attorney General Eric Holder takes place, the Department of Justice has asked the White House to insert Executive Privilege for all Operation Fast and Furious documents according to Chairman Issa’s press secretary Becca Watkins.
Barack Obama, circa 2007 (via Twitchy.com):
In the video clip, Larry King asks Obama, “Do you favor executive privilege?”
Here’s the meat of his answer:
There’s been a tendency of this administration to try to hide behind executive privilege every time there’s something a little shaky that’s taking place. And I think the administration would be best served by coming clean on this.

It’s just another example of hypocrisy in action! Something smells really fishy!
Hypocrisy in action!
That is easy… He “evolved”. Just like he “evolved” on Executive orders. Just like he “evolved” on selective enforcement of laws.
I am having a field day posting links to his 2007/2008 campaign videos in the local liberal newspaper forums.
BTW.. is anyone else on here from Maine? NH?
Ah, the unintended consequences of taking positions… Which is why he did that as little as possible before he decided he was going to be President!
This is a Romney campaign commercial in 3…. 2…. 1…..
“Yes, but Mitt Romney MADE MONEY!” – screamed the left.
Carter’s Economy + Nixon’s Corruption = Obama’s presidency.
Notice the chryon on this clip: “Does 1st term US Sen have what it takes to be 1st African-American US President?”
Obviously we all know the answer to that question.
And this is in 2007 – way before the IA caucus and NH primary. Isn’t it obvious the MSM is shilling for Duh Won?
Hypocrisy, thy name is liberalism.

Everything Obama says comes with an expiration date, you stupid bitter clinging wingers!
“2007 Barack Obama Must Hate 2012 Barack Obama”
LOVE that title! It says it all.
“It’s DIFFERENT when I do it.” That’s pretty much the standard Obama response, along with a heaping helping of “But Bush!”
Simply amazing how brazen he is, but then again, with the MSM covering for him, maybe not so brave after all.
Thanks for posting!
Commenter Flora Duh at Hot Air just posted this complete and brutal takedown of the New York Times.
Just by re-posting what they were saying today versus what they were saying in 2007.
