It seems like Democrat Rep. Elijah Cummings has been bad. Rep. Darrell Issa wants to know why his staff was asking questions from the IRS, why these questions weren’t disclosed and why Cummings denied these actions when asked about them.

This is a violation of law. You cannot get IRS information on a tax payers. What we have is 5 to 10 in the federal pen for this liar who has now been exposed as using cocaine in front of an FBI agent. When confronted— HE FLIPPED!!! And started squealing on his terrorist friends. I think they will now whack him. Just a guess. What a scum bag!! and eric holder spoke nasty lies at sharpton’s 501c4 crap organization . You can’t make up how long holder resides in prison.
The purpose of the Democrat party is to elect thieves to office so that they will have access to the public treasuries in order to loot them.
Conservative blacks on the other hand are just like the rest of us...they love the country and defend her honor.
Because it forces Obama’s hand, exposes him even further as the corrupt tyrant he is, and will drive his already horrific poll numbers even lower.
But most important, because sitting on your hands and doing nothing is not the thing to do.
We do it because we are a nation of laws and not of men. Justice.
>>Nope. It will be up to Eric Holder’s Justice Department to prosecute him and...well, you know how that goes.<<
Some conservative host I listen to, I think Mark Levin, was saying a while back that a contempt of Congress charge is outside the jurisdiction of the Attorney General, and he has no say in it.
Someone's wannabe dream.
Please!!!
If anybody in the GOP did this they would be being prosecuted and facing serious jail time as we speak.
No. It's a pipe-dream. I mean, he should.
But he won't. Breaking the law means nothing if you're not officially charged with breaking the law.
is there anyway that republicans can prosecute these scandals whenever the dims get out of office - if ever!
Not on your life.
It was just an oversight from a tired overworked old man trying to do the best he can for the downtrodden American people that are persecuted and hated by the Tea Party.
C’mon. Quit teasing. Gosh, seeing someone like Cummings doing jail time is such a beautiful dream.
Umm, that was da revrund Al Sharpton.
It is called pigmentocracy.
One can only hope.
Impeach Obama before he can pardon anyone.
No! Never! Some of his staffers may go to jail. But Cummings will plead stupidity and who’s going to argue with that/?
