So the ONLY people that didn’t know I guess was Obama, Foxnews and Freepers. EVERYONE else knew. I get it.

The entire nation is better informed that Obama if you believe a single denial coming out of his mouth. AND this is in a land of low information voters to boot!!!

Sounds to me like Karen Finney should testify on what she knew, when she knew it, and how she found out.

I think it would have been quite topical during the run up to the election. There isn’t a reason why our team would have taken a pass.

It’s almost as if they want to blame us because Obama’s team was doing stuff like this.

Hey, it’s not our fault he’s an anti-Constitutional crook.

I agree. mitt romney made that call but I cannot for the life of me figure out why? He could have dominated obama and if he had pushed Benghazi hard, the whistle-blowers would have come forward much sooner. Can you imagine an “I plead the 5th”... ohhhh say along about the second debate?!

Top IRS Official’s Attorney from Firm with Close Ties to White House

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/05/22/Lois-Lerner-attorney-from-boutique-law-firm-with-unusually-close-ties-to-the-White-House

On Wednesday, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) senior official Lois Lerner, the director of the division that singled out conservative groups for scrutiny, pleaded the 5th Amendment at congressional hearings. The lawyer by her side at the hearings, William Taylor III of Zuckerman Spaeder, comes from a firm with unusually close ties to the Obama White House Counsel’s Office and Department of Justice.

MSNBC is making a foolish logical argument. What they’re really saying is that if you really want to defeat a Democrat in an election, then you must attack, attack and attack. Wait a minute the argument is very logical. For once, I agree with MSNBC and thanks for the advice we Republicans have been to easy on Democrats and MSNBC is mocking us for that.

Actually my emphasis was on how silly the charge was that we neglected to call Obama on IRS abnormalities prior to the election. We didn’t know. Nobody knew. It was hush hush. My comment was meant to reveal, if our side would have known, there’s no way we wouldn’t have addressed it. That’s all.
