WASHINGTON (KMOX) – Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-MO, issued a video statement Friday in response to reports that the Internal Revenue Service unfairly targeted conservative nonprofit groups.
“I’m mad. It is un-American, it is wrong, and we have to make sure that this gets fixed,” Missouri’s senior senator said. “There’s a reason Lady Justice wears a blindfold in America. That is because in America, we don’t apply the law based on who you are, who you know, or what you believe. We apply the law equally.”
McCaskill went on to say that the targeting of one group based on political beliefs “infuriates” her.
“We should not only fire the head of the IRS, which has occurred, but we’ve got to go down the line and find every single person who had anything to do with this and make sure that they are removed from the IRS and the word goes out that this is unacceptable,” she said. “It is un-American, it is wrong, and it cannot occur again.”

McCaskill wants Obama impeached?
She obviously has never tried firing a federal employee.
impeached and removed, apparently.
I can accept fired. I had better get a big dose of prison time in addition. This was a complete breach of the law. Hang em high...
Uh...more than that, how about some time. And will those Senators be booted from office and jailed, too?
How can we even feel good about the investigations because these people compromised the elections. That means that we are not be legally represented in these investigations, because of illegal and unconstitutional acts.
This is just grist for the LIV. She knows damn well that no one of any substance will be fired over this.
Shut it down.
How about up the line too?
Umm, Clare, you are the one that sponsored the bill concerning MCcain and his citizenship, know that Obama was ineligible. And umm, Clare, you were the deciding vote for Obamacare that the IRS will oversee. I am thinking you should just fire yourself for these goofups that have put AMerica in this turmoil.
Methinks she doth protest tooooo much! Phony hypocrite!
And the script (and the acting) are just plain insulting.
How about some damn INDICTMENTS and let’s enforce LAWS that were BROKEN in doing this.
Hey Clair, these hacks broke the law. Don’t just fire them. Send them to jail.
Otherwise, they will end up somewhere else in Zeros administration!
Aunt Bea just wants her face in the news. Nothing to see here.
She’s just pissed that she didn’t think of the idea herself..its so funny hearing from Dems supposedly outraged by this, the same ones who trashed the Tea Party, compared us to members of the Taliban, accused us of everything under the sun and now they are supposedly outraged by the IRS targeting us when it was many Dems who demanded that the Tea Party be targeted
Not impeached, fired. Called into Mr. Soros’ office and fired. I hope they give him two weeks severance.
Exactly! Send these hacks to jail and they won’t end up with another job doing Obama’s bidding.
McCaskill said very few people who are, “legitimately fired,” actually lose their jobs. Or wait, maybe that was Todd Akin.,
