On Wednesday Darrell Issa demanded Attorney General Eric Holder answer new questions about the Justice Department’s role in the IRS’s targeting of conservative groups. In a letter sent to Holder, Issa sought answers about a newly released email between former IRS official Lois Lerner and DOJ official Richard Pilger in which Pilger asks Lerner “When you have a moment, will you call me? I’ve been asked to run something by you” and requests who at the IRS “DOJ folks could talk to” about ways to target politically involved non-profit groups.
So far none of the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) reported on this latest IRS scandal development on their evening or morning shows.
On Thursday the Washington Examiner’s Susan Crabtree reported the following:

"Evolved" into an imperial presidency.
The kind of "presidency" we eliminated in 1781.

He Mr “Feet to the Fire”, your crew said the same thing a year ago. We had to wait till after the election to hold feet to the fire. And here it is in the timeframe you all specified.
And what happens? Someone calls them on their inaction and you want another Issa style delay in the holding of feet to the fire until, after the next election. Pray tell which future election can we carve in stone as the one where feet can be held to fire with no whinning from y’all?
Death from within. I certainly hope the House is waiting for successful GOP takeover in the Senate before they bring forth Impeachment proceedings, otherwise they are failures at their sworn duty and are all deserving of exile or 'a quick drop and sudden stop'...
Help me I think I fell down rabbit hole after I read post by Tulane. Is this person a troll? I don’t want to respond directly to them.
agreed, Issa is a waste of a congressional seat. all the low hanging fruit of 0bama scandals and what has Issa delivered?
Bueller?
Bueller?
Obama, Jarrett, Biden and other prompters are all out of town...so no noose is good noose.
I am not a troll...just somebody who wants to win elections...
Are you a troll?
There is a way to fix this. However it will take having republicans across the board. Do to the libs what Obama is doing to conservatives. Make it so painful that the libs will beg to make things right.
AND DO IT OPENLY. “The IRS went after conservative groups and you in the media did nothing? Well, the IRS will now audit everyone on your staff as well as your connections in government. And since it was perfectly legal under Obama, it must be legal now. Or did you lie?”
Then create a law in which government and the media cannot be in bed together. When Reid demands 67 votes, tell him to pound sand, change it to 51 and implement the law.
I would nuke the entire lib platform to a point where it would be legal to shoot OWS members as anarchists.
No, he’s the typical conservative today. FR and every other site is plagued with that idiocy.
Leftists infiltrated conservatism long ago and set about changing the meaning of the word. His post is the result. He wants to sit at the conservative table as long as he can still play Mr. Moderate in real life. Call him on his ‘conservatism’ and watch him spin out and hit the wall.
Cliven Bundy is Raciss.

When Bush nominated Harriet Myers, did conservatives have the ability to get her nomination shot down in favor of Alito? Yes or no? That, Norm, is called holding a politicians feet to the fire. You can look it up.
When Obama nominated Sotomayor and Kagan, was he worried about conservatives’ reactions?
AFter 2008, when republicans stayed home and refused to vote for many moderate senate candidates...How did that democratic 60 vote majority help us with Obamacare?
We need to win elections...
Yup. President Romney agrees.
They are too busy with Bundy’s latest remarks.
Ok, I am an idiot.
For the record, I have not called you names...but nice muscles there, internet tough guy.
Not addressing my questions...thought so...you’ve got nothing but ad hominem attacks and vitriol...
Good luck with that come election time...
Let me apologize. I’m sorry your support of moderates blinds you to reality, but stupid should hurt.
You don’t really believe in winning fair elections anymore do you?
No point in addressing cases of category error until you see the problem with your statements.
Dear journalists. Here’s another case of a guaranteed Pulitzer Prize for the real story in a sane world. Sorry you missed it. You’d better pray that the adults never get back in charge.
