"He's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Nixon....."
....more and more each day."
Well, it's not Christmas time yet, but the lyrics are sure appropriate. White House chief of staff Jack Lew was interviewed by Candy Crowley, and she even asked him about Fast and Furious in connection with the White House claim of executive privilege. She didn't exactly get an answer (hat tip Daily Caller).

"I’m not going to speak to the specific documents,” he responded. “There was an unprecedented amount of cooperation and providing insight into all the decisions made up to the point of the correction that Congress was given about the policy itself and about the testimony. What they are looking for now are internal kinds of documents that they know are not appropriate.”
Unprecedented.
“This administration has been the most transparent ever,” Lew said,"
At least he didn't say that the February 4 letter to Congress was "inoperative" like Nixon's press spokesman Ron Ziegler did.
"I am the precedent."

Usage of the "Big Lie" in Hitler's psychological profile.
"This phrase, was also used in a report prepared during the war by the United States Office of Strategic Services in describing Hitler's psychological profile:
His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it."
This quote comes from a discription of the "Big Lie" as put forth by George Orwell, but used to describe Hitler's deception. But in this case, it describes the Fast and Furious cover-up. I'm not surprised that the MSM has not pickd this up, yet.

President Obama has tried and tried to find some good in his enemies, but they're not having it.
