Obama is not responsible for any of the current scandals. He inherited the culture of corruption from the previous administration.

You’re right. The American people don’t want to stop the gravy train. America — Land of the Free — now has a whole new meaning.

I think Obama should re-deliver his Ohio commencement speech telling young people not to listen to anyone who says government might do bad things.

He shouldn’t be let anywhere near young people.

The Chi/mob---Obomba/Jarrett/Holder/Axelrod/Emanuel--- are trying to contain the damage---claiming the IRS action was confined to the Cincinnati office.

BUT the Cincinatti IRS office (which seems to have done most of the hands-on dirty work) is the one that controls all the “battleground states” that Obama needed to win in the last election.

Obama's own political support organizations (even outside of the country!) got fast-tracked........BUT any organization he thought might oppose him in those crucial states got silenced or prevented from collecting funds during the time leading up to the elections.

Hatch Act rules.

I call bs. I know several government workers, and I tell ya, none would risk their pension and benefits for a political posturing of this type.

99.999% chance that someone in the Obama administration gave the order, or there was some kind of sweet deal or incentive for these so called rogue employees (from the Obama administration).

These two "rogue" IRS goons will take the fall for this, and as long as they are standup, and keep their mouths shut, they will be taken care of.

This is the way the Mob works. It's SOP for our Mobbed up Prez. No one rats out the Don.

Obama’s speech was loaded with bull squat anyway. I don’t know any conservatives who believe that the government is the root of all problems. That would make us anarchists, no? We do, however, believe that liberals are the root of most problems with government.

I hope criminal charges are coming.

In order to believe this, one out of two other things must be true. Either these two are the only people who handle these organizations in the whole IRS, or these two are allowed to pick the cases they work on with no oversight from superiors.

One more thing, how were these two supervised? It would seem that if there are any productivity metrics recorded and analyzed by management they would have stuck out and been flagged when it suddenly took so long to get anything done. Those records, and office procedures need to be subpoena.

If by “disciplined” he means drawn and quartered I want to see corpses.

Then why did the director resign? “Off the reservation” and “rogue” imply he knew nothing about it..

It is IMPOSSIBLE for 2 rogue employees to do what was done. Congress better put on their big boy britches and slap this down right now.

We already know three separate offices were involved, so who coordinated the assault by the whole IRS on 0bama’s opponents?
