contempt vote for a member of the administration, and back then, you went out on the steps and protested this vote, and boycotted it. you were there behind speaker boehner. at the time, dana preeno, the white house spokeswoman said this, quote, the white house had tried to compromise with house democrats to help lawmakers obtain information from mr. bolten and ms. meier short of public testimony. many of the things we asked for we were willing to give, but instead they re going to waste time on this partisan, few tile act. is the contempt vote for mr. holder a partisan, futile act? not at all. if you go back earlier a year ago, look at the democrats who signed a letter asking the administration for the same information. i mean, every step of the way, we have sat. we will delay the contempt vote, not have it, just given the information. it s quite unusual and quite different that in the 11th hour they go to executive privilege. that that to me is a little
possible. it is possible if home prices go down. home prices, as best we can judge, have really flattened out in the last year. he also said that we re in a pause and a modest recovery which feels like a recession. if there s a double-dip recession, that is going to dominate the news on all these sunday shows for a long time to come. thanks. thanks. still to come, dana preeno, chris matthews and andrew coen who showed a little too much information about the sweetheart who got away. our media monitor straight ahead.
