WASHINGTON, D.C. -- A House committee says that President Obama's "political rhetoric" was critical in the IRS' decision to target Tea Party, pro-family, and other groups that had politically conservative leanings.

In a 77-page report released on Monday, the House Oversight Committee said, "President Obama's bully pulpit led to the Internal Revenue Service's targeting of conservative tax-exempt applicants." The report also places blame on "congressional Democrats," "Senior White House officials," "and other left-wing political figures and commentators."

I wonder what their first clue was? Most of us would not need 77 pages, to figure this out.

You got it all wrong — Bambi only INFLUENCED the IRS to target conservative groups but did not directly directed to do so.

I believe they found it “UNACCEPTABLE”. Next.

It sounds like the ole “plausible deniability” routine here. Both parties have engaged in the “plausible deniability” routine for their own party’s President.

That's their way of saying the GOPe hates conservatives, too, and nobody will ever be held accountable, unless the voters throw the bums out.

IRS abuse was one of the things that brought down Nixon.

IRS abuse was one of the things that brought down Nixon.....If I remember, just CONSIDERING IRS abuse was what he was charged with in the Articles of Impeachment.
