Video “I don’t know that hiding something from Congress is illegal”
Hot Air ^ | 5/19/13 | Jazz Shaw

For regular viewers of TV talking heads, Eleanor Clift is no stranger. She’s been making the rounds for years, currently working for Newsweek / Daily Beast, and is a regular feature on The McLaughlin Group. It was on the latter program where today’s feature video unfolded, with the venerable Ms. Clift once again tangling with Rich Lowry.

In this episode, the subject of the IRS investigation is once again on the table, and Clift has the clarity to cut to the heart of the matter. Her argument boils down what surely seems like a clear cut case of, “move along. Nothing to see here.” Because even if what everyone is saying happened actually did happen, then it was just some low level rogue tax drones. And it’s not like anybody broke any laws, right? So what’s the big deal? (H/T to RealClearPolitics)

No! These people are power mad Marxists.As far as they are concerned anything that they do is OK as long as it furthers their agenda. With Obama as their anointed leader they have come completely out of the closet and are pursuing their Marxist dreams without hesitation. Look around..

LOL! It’s a Dem thing. Their brains rot from the inside out and you don’t realize it until too late.

It's been exposed so what they are doing now is lying. Before that they were hiding.

After all the partisan and irrational defense Eleanor ran for Bill Clinton and the media spin machine, it is amazing that Eleanor Clift is still around and being recycled. If Obama whipped out a chainsaw and cut her head off at the neck and held her head up away from her body, she would still be speaking defending him.

There's no controlling legal authority here.
Move along.

You nailed it exactly.

If GW Bush had done wrong, people like Eleanor Clift would want him run into prison without a trial.

If a Republican were accused of hiding something from Congress she would be an instant expert on why it was a crime and why jail time should be imposed.
