Democrats unable to produce witness from targeted liberal group for IRS hearing
Charlie Spiering During a House Ways and Means Committee hearing Tuesday, six witnesses were called to testify about their groups being targeted by the Internal Revenue Service.
The witnesses were from various conservative, Tea Party, pro-life, pro-marriage, and other patriotic groups.
Although the Democrats on the committee were given the opportunity to call up a witness from a liberal group targeted by the IRS, they declined, according to Ways and Means Chairman David Camp, R-Mich.
I do want to note that the minority was given the opportunity to call up a witness but did not present a witness that had been affected by taxpayer activity, by IRS activity, so thats why there is no minority witness at the table today, Camp explained during the hearing.

Just like how they could not produce the person who was shouting racial slurs during a Tea Party protest that the Democrats claimed happened.

Oh, they MIGHT be able to present anecdotes from the Nixon era, maybe.
Certainly there wouldn’t be anyone now living that could deny or confirm their accusations. And all the paperwork or other possible clues would have been long since sent through shredders or incinerators.

Which immediately sent the liberal groups on the social media into screeching fits of lying that they had been prevented from testifying.

LOL. The blowhard Dems on the committee did indeed blame Nixon, as well as Bush and the tooth fairy.

They couldn’t even concoct one, like the black lady who testified that she was ‘intimidated’ on her way to vote in 2000 because she saw a police car on the street?.......

So they can't even make one up?
If they do find one targeted liberal group, is that supposed to make everything OK?
