There was a reason the Clintons read all those FBI files. They have their own tools for keeping Congress tight lipped.
It was obvious during the Clinton years that the IRS was being misused for nefarious political reasons. Practically every conservative organization was being audited.
Maybe because it's 400 pages? ;O)
I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I read the Cedar Rapids Gazette editorial a week or two ago calling for Tom "Dungheap" Harkin to join with Grassley and demand the report's release in order to show this isn't a partisan witch hunt. The Gazette said something about both Grassley and Harkin being watchdogs in the Senate.
The mere suggestion that Harkin will ever be anything but a partisan hack is truly laughable.
Unfortunately, Democrats on the Hill, led by Sens. Byron Dorgan and Dick Durbin, and Rep. Henry Waxman, have thwarted Mr. Grassley's wishes by late-night legislative subterfuge. They were assisted in this project by two easily confused Republicans, Sen. Kit Bond and Rep. Joe Knollenberg. Now the 120 pages of the report that outline illegal behavior by the IRS and Justice Department during the Clinton administration will be suppressed unless the investigative journalists Mr. Safire hopes for get to work on the Jan. 19 release. Of course, Republican leaders Bill Frist in the Senate and Denny Hastert in the House could weigh in, too."
Perhaps if we deluge them with e-mails demanding they release an unredacted report,it may let them know we're watching.
