Obama to address the nation on the IRS scandal...nothing else...
Exactly so.
The Marxist controls Treasury.
This was a foul joke tonight.
Treasury Dept may not be able to seek indictments....BUT...I’ll bet others can....
“Lew has accepted resignation of Acting Commissioner of the IRS.”
Steven Miller...
Who gave Miller his orders?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Krauthammer: “That was a holding operation.... That was the minimum that he had to do.
The other actions that he announced were meaningless...It means nothing
Then he says there’s going to be an investigation from Treasury. That just means the left hand of the govt investigating the right hand.
He did say he will cooperate with Congress, but then he has the hutzpah to essentially warn Republicans not to make this into a political event when what we are talking about is the IRS applying political criteria inexcusably, unconstitutionally, and probably criminally in deciding who its going to investigate.
So, I found this the bare minimum. It will hold him for 12 hours, but no more.”

AB Stoddard: Well, I think Charles is right.... Steven Miller was briefed on this in 2011...and in May 2012 and questioned again in July 2012.
Not if the investigation stays with Treasury.
Boehner needs to appoint Special Committees tomorrow on both Benghazi and the IRS scandal. Put the AP scandal aside for now. Start from bottom up, get them under oath. No Obamacare funding as we go through these massive abuses of power!
The problem is that the Administration is investigating itself. I believe we have a real problem with the government bureaucracy. Career employees are taking sides. Government unions are among the Dems’ biggest contributors. They endorsed Obama. They support big government. Whether it is IRS, EPA, or the State Department, we have career employee acting in partisan ways to protect the Obama administration.
He is just upset about being the publicity......these tactics were used throughout his elections for senate. This is o’s MO.
NO...I think he’s replaced Geithner....right?
—— The first head has rolled. -——
The landing will be soft. Deals were made.
Well, maybe..... The FBI is also under Treasury!
Oh, you’re right, HollyB!!!
UH...I think the cat is out of the bag, and Treasury will NOT be able to keep it to themselves.....
Bad edit, sorry
LOL!
Not just a problem of leadership. The scandal shows that the IRS is so thoroughly populated with political partisans as to lose all credibility and legitimacy. The agency is irredeemable, no way it ever recovers from such a massive breach of public trust.
I understood you perfectly!
-— Treasury Dept may not be able to seek indictments....BUT...I’ll bet others can.... ——
The special prosecutor that BOEHNER WON’T APPOINT.
the bigger issue is the GOP fights like little girls...
Today didn’t Boehner say someone would be going to jail....??? How can someone NOT go to jail if there is no prosecutor? And, as others have said...gov’t investigating govt....don’t cut it...and MOST US Citizens HATE the IRS/Treasury
