"WASHINGTON — Hillary Rodham Clinton was directly asked by congressional investigators in a December 2012 letter whether she had used a private email account while serving as secretary of state, according to letters obtained by The New York Times.
But Mrs. Clinton did not reply to the letter. And when the State Department answered in March 2013, nearly two months after she left office, it ignored the question and provided no response.
The query was posed to Mrs. Clinton in a Dec. 13, 2012, letter from Representative Darrell Issa, the Republican chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. Mr. Issa was leading an investigation into how the Obama administration handled its officials’ use of personal email."
And so on and so forth, yadda, yadda, yadda. I have been hearing about this story in one way or another all day and it once again raises a question I have already asked several times: who is in charge around here? Congress conducts an "investigation"; requests information from Hillary and is ignored; State later replies and also ignores the question. Congress goes back to knitting sweaters and baking cookies.
This is absurd.
