Criminal Charges Not Expected in IRS Probe (Tea Party)
The Wall Street Journal ^ | Monday, January 13, 2014 | Devlin Barrett

The Federal Bureau of Investigation doesn't plan to file criminal charges over the Internal Revenue Service's heightened scrutiny of conservative groups, according to law-enforcement officials, a move that likely will only intensify debate over the politically charged scandal.

The officials said investigators didn't find the kind of political bias or "enemy hunting" that would amount to a violation of criminal law. Instead, what emerged during the probe was evidence of a mismanaged bureaucracy...

Reminds me of the time I was in Chicago several years ago, and saw the local constabulary giving some guy a “wooden shampoo.” I must have looked a little shocked because one of the cops asked me if I wanted any. He didn’t have to ask twice....

The FBI is part of the criminal federal bureaucracy. They are no less thugs than their masters at DoJ. No one in FedGov can be trusted to defend the Constitution.

The DOJ under Eric “Get Whitey” Holder never will permit any investigation.

So, the government investigated itself and found no government wrongdoing.

Got it.

I don’t want to say “no one”, there ARE some good folks working for us, but it certainly seems the higher up the food chain, the more Anti-American it gets..

When the Dems took over the 3 branches of Government, the pResidency, both Houses of the Congress and the Supreme Court, they began installing friendlies in every area of ‘checks and balances’. So no more ‘checks and balances’ for the foreseeable future, if ever again. Sadly, those Dems that I still talk to ( not too many any more, thankfully) are quite happy with the totalitarianism by their side of politics. How can we stop this????

awww, you missed the good ones at the Dem Convention in 67.

Of course they were beating the hippies, so, it was cool, and my dad was laughing his ass off.

That’s when Dems were more conservative than R’s, and Old Man Daley would have nothing to do with hippies in Grant Park messing with his convention.

Oh, and they used to hollow their night sticks and fill them with lead, just for the sake of it.

But just you wait until an eeeevil Republican ever sees the inside of the White House again, I tell ya! “Journalists” such as Gregory, Woodward, and Chuck Todd will harrumph in indignity at the outrage of the Republican president frowning in public. How dare he frown in public and scare black children with images of THE MAN from the racist South. Calls for impeachment will be made, the Republican President will resign in shame, and the new Democrat president will once again call for unity and transparency.

Chicago politics brought to DC in a wonderful fashion... You just have to love it! Seems that the crooks continue to outflank the good guys every time! What chance does America really have when the Feds are corrupt!

This is why there are no cracks in Obama’s fascade,
we need criminal charges brought against his minions
to get them to talk.
