"Justice officials have given Issa’s committee 7,600 pages of Fast and Furious documents in response to his subpoena last year for information on the operation. But Issa said those documents represent a sliver of the 80,000-plus documents that officials have turned over to the inspector general, which is also investigating the gun operation."
Thus, the contempt charge.
A President can only invoke Executive Privilege to protect himself or White House Advisors. By invoking it to withhold these documents is tantamount to an admission of guilt.
i.e., He knew before he said he did, and he knew more than he said he did, and these documents would prove it.
Remember, nobody died in Watergate. This is much, much worse.
