re: #12 lawhawk

You might not be willing to join the chorus on that front, but it does appear that the whole DHS report was politically ginned to be released at a time right before the tea parties over the questions of DHS lawyers. Napolitano wanted it done, and she purposefully politicized the document. The reports and investigations may have preceded Obama’s Administration, but Obama’s pick wanted this report in a bad way and moved to release it over the objections of her legal team.

It was a political hit job on their part.

I still am not seeing the evidence that it was a political hit job. Lawyers always object to something — that’s what they get paid for. At some point, a decision has to be made whether to release a document like this or not. Just because there’s an objection to some language does not mean it was released for political reasons.
