This Week (6.24.2012) Podcast

In this week’s episode, the Fast and Furious gun operation has been regarded by many politicians as being poorly performed. One of the weapons used in the death of U.S. border patrol agent, Brian Terry, was traced to the operation, and Attorney General Eric Holder has been held in contempt by Congress. Darrell Issa, Chair of the House Oversight Committee, talks about this issue, and criticizes President Obama for his exercise of executive privilege. Also, the Supreme Court is set to make a decision on the president’s health care law. Political contributor, George Will, Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen, Congressman Xavier Becerra, and Wall Street Journal Columnist Peggy Noonan, and National Journal White House Correspondent Major Garrett discuss the pros and cons of this law if it is passed. Finally, as the November 2011 presidential election nears, the question of who Mitt Romney will pick as Republican running mate persists. The experts mention some likely candidates.
