- 1. President Obama, our country's credit was downgraded for the first time in its history. Your own bipartisan commission developed a very credible plan to put us on a healthier fiscal path. Yet you elected to kick it to the curb and focus on health care instead during your first term. Please explain.
- 2. We now know that Operation Fast and Furious resulted in the deaths of one border agent and 16 Mexican youths, yet Eric Holder is still employed by your administration. Similarly, we now know that the Benghazi attack was a planned terrorist attack, and that was known at the time Susan Rice continued to assert that the assault was a spontaneous uprising caused by the film "Innocence of Muslims," yet she is still employed by your administration. In each case, please explain your rationale for keeping them in their current positions.
3. Mr. President, you issued an executive order stopping the deportation of illegal immigrants under certain conditions. You also have assured defense contractors that they will not be subject to WARN Act penalties due to failure to give required 60 day notices arising out of sequestration. Similarly, hundreds of organizations have been given waivers from Obamacare. Does this administration intend to enforce some laws and not others? If so, which laws are to be enforced and what is the basis for distinguishing?
4. In light of the intelligence failure in Libya, do you intend to revisit your policy of killing terrorists from the air instead of capturing and interrogating them, since it is difficult to obtain actionable intelligence from a smoking hole in the ground?
I'm sure I could come up with a few more, but I'd love to hear the answers to these.
