I especially appreciate Darrel Issa’s closing remarks. As for the Dems, they completely miss the mark. For political reasons they do not want to face the music. Have you ever noticed how it is always the Dems who squeal like stuck pigs in regard to partisanship? Hey, partisanship is necessary. It comes with the turf. Deal with it.

Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., accused House Republicans of taking "a significant step backwards in their duty to uphold the U.S. Constitution by voting to strip an American citizen of her Fifth Amendment rights."

So says the partner in crime

Murphy’s the guy who stole the election from Allen West after West was gerrymandered. I don’t know if he has opposition this election or not.

Send the Capital Police SWAT team to serve the warrant.

It is what Obama would do to any of us.

“...A sacrificial lamb; better her than the Prez ….”

Looks like the House is slowly working it’s way up to the top rung. First, WithHolder. Now, Lerner. How many more before it gets REAL interesting?

Now it’s time to strip Lerner of her freedom. Throw the bitch in jail and throw away the key.

Here’s to Cardinal Puff for the very last time, and,
We take away your birthday Miss Lerner! That is all.
