Senate Democrats blocked a resolution condemning the targeting of tea party groups by the Internal Revenue Service Wednesday, according to Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul.

The resolution Paul introduced Tuesday condemns the targeting of tea party and other affected groups. The resolution further calls for investigations and criminal charges against those who authorized or were involved in targeting people on the basis of their political beliefs.

“This resolution is not about Republican vs. Democrat or conservative vs. liberal. It is about arrogant and unrestrained government vs. the rule of law. The First Amendment cannot and should not be renegotiated depending on which party holds power,” Paul said in a statement.

That’s the problem it is about Democrats.

Didn’t I just read that certain Senators -—Democrat Senators — wrote the IRS naming who they wanted to have harassed.

It is about Democrats. The is why they don’t want this resolution.

Any Greasy SOB Senator who would use such tactics should be tossed out of office.

Good - Paul, Cruz, anyone else with any cajones should introduce a bill a day about this. Make them own it.
