Now this is a joke. The republicans are not only outnumbered but outskanked.

The problem is that, for those who only RECEIVE money from the government and do not pay taxes, the IRS has nothing to hold over them, so they do not live in fear of the IRS, IMHO. And there are many, many liberals who feel that (due to they are so much smarter than the rest of us), it is appropriate to suppress the conservatives/right wing ideology, just because they are smarter and are sure that they “know better”, reducing the competition for their messages and agendas.

It pisses me off, but it doesn’t surprise me at all.

I also think the recent heckling incidents of the POTUS nad FLOTUS were planted scams to soak up some news air time and to try to evoke sympathy for the first couple.

Democrat controlled Senate holding these hearings as a smoke screen to hide the Republican House IRS hearings.

Defund the Department of Injustice...no justice no green
The GOP-e led US HOUSE can defund anything it desires.
The problem we are facing is NOT the Obama and his corruption - that is a given - but rather THE GOP LED HOUSE THAT IS UNEILLING OR UNABLE TO GROW A PAIR AND STARVE THE RAT BEAST THAT IS CONSUMING ALL OF US.

Caught Shelby’s remarks regarding a large part of the budget is allocated to GUN CONTROL....and he went on from there.
Recall that Holder mentioned in the interview on ABC news that “as soon as I complete....something...we will talk about another DOJ to be appointed.”
Anyone recall hearing that ? My hunch is that Holder’s mission is to complete gun control.
To: don-o
Couldn't watch but about 3 minutes of this. This is an opportunity for Holder to testify about how privileged he feels to be AG and how he promises not to abuse his power by prosecuting journalists. IOW, this is pure save-face theater.

To: don-o
So, what is the point of a hearing, where the investigators are the same ones committing the crimeS?
What is the point, when the one testifying, either denies and deflects any and all questions or lies through his teeth?
While Holder added that he has no intention of resigning at this point, that option appears likely down the road once hes finished with some things I want to get done.
He's not "finished" fundamentally transforming and destroying the US. Based on EVERYTHING he's already done and what he continues to "finish".....he needs to be forcefully removed, IMO

And of course the hecklers were from the left, which supports your theory.

Doesn’t look like much useful is going to come from this. I’m switching over to the Zimmerman hearing.

Shelby seems to be implying Holder needs to go since he has distractions of his own making...
