Federal Judge Tells Obama Cannot Prevent Congress From Review Executive Order President Barack Obama cannot be happy about a recent federal judge ruling that he cannot use his execute privilege to prevent Congress from viewing records on Operation Fast and Furiousa gun running program that allowed thousands of firearms to cross the border into Mexico. U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson was nominated by President Obama to the bench, but that did not stop her from ruling that Obamas administration is required to release the documents they were withholding under executive privilege. Judge Jackson reportedly wrote in her decision that the information already made public by the Justice Department has opened the door for any further disclosures. Jackson also ruled that any damage existing in the reports has already been self-inflicted. Essentially, the ruling determined that executive privilege was void given that the justice department had already released pertinent information. The White House is now required to provide Congress with attorney-client privileged material, attorney work product, private information, law enforcement sensitive material, or foreign policy sensitive material. The Obama administration will have the opportunity to appeal the decision if they see fit. What do you think? Do you support the ruling? Are you glad that Obama might finally be held accountable for his actions?
