Pointing out to you that the Independent Counsel law has expired, and that Congress no longer has the authority to appoint one is not a statement in favor of the Aministration investigating itself. “Typical,” indeed.

They (House) do have the authority to appoint a Select Committee that does have supena power and funds for investigations.

My point is that we need to have independent investigation and prosecution that is independent of the administration (whatever means to get there).otherwise the Obama administration will be investigating itself. seems you want the administration to investigate itself. Here Republican Governors calling for special prosecutor but I guess you will say you know they have no right to do that too? stop hijacking this thread with your what the “definition of is is” spam posting

WASHINGTON (AP) — Two Republican governors are urging President Barack Obama to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the Internal Revenue Service's admission that it targeted conservative political groups.

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker call the allegations “Big Brother come to life.”

They want a special prosecutor to find out if any laws were broken and say Obama should fire any IRS employees responsible for the situation.

The IRS has apologized for what it calls “inappropriate” targeting of conservative political groups. The agency targeted groups during the 2010 congressional elections and the 2012 presidential election.

Jindal is the chairman of the Republican Governors Association and Walker is the group's vice chairman. Both are potential presidential candidates in 2016.
