Government documents obtained by a top "Inside the Beltway" watchdog group and released on Thursday reveal that Internal Revenue Service's Lois Lerner was strongly urged by Sen. Carl Levin, D-Michigan, and Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, her assistance in attacking certain non-profit political groups. The organizations they selected for targeting by Lerner were part of the Tea Party and conservative movements.
Newly released documents revealed that Sen. Levin (left) and Sen. McCain both urged the IRS to target conservative groups in the wake of the Citizens United decision.
The group that investigates and exposes government corruption, Judicial Watch, released newly acquired IRS documents, including an email from Ms. Lerner in February 2012 requesting she “put together some training points to help them [IRS staffers] understand the potential pitfalls of revealing too much information to Congress."

It was said by FR peeps he got special treatment in the Navy because his father was an admiral.

“Does anyone realize how many girls and women have
been raped and sold ONLY because of Arizona’s McCain
actively working with Obama-the-Terrorist supporter????”
Please provide specifics! Are you talking about the ME?
Talking about ISIS.
So I'm not only voting for Cruz, but I've donated money to him, and as when he ran for the senate, I'll knock on doors and make phone calls.
Vote conservative. Even if they are Republican.

I don’t know if “they are all crooks”. McBackstabber sure is and always has been. He needs to go.
Yes! Put McStupid in front of the committee!
The Dems are ruled by full-blown Marxists. What was left have moved over to the Republican Party. And they are to the left of FDR and Woodrow Wilson.
who is the best alternative to primary McCain?
I need to send some money to him.
This guy has been crooked since the Keating Five and has been hiding behind his military image.

all that has to happen is for enough people to decide enough, and vote them out....Goodbye McCain

The last time the fat commie pig Levin showed up in my congressional Michigan district, ca 1989, he barely escaped. The state had to call out the National Guard to clear out an escape route.
McStain has been skirting the ethics line for years. Don’t forget he was one of the Keating 5. They couldn’t really pin anything on him so I believe he just got censured for bad judgment or something. This time maybe he gets in trouble.
I have basically been voting strictly conservative for decades—sometimes Republican (mostly in the primary), sometimes third party. If Cruz is the nominee I will vote for him, donate to him, and campaign for him. I will do the same for Santorum or Jindal (although I realize that isn’t always a popular opinion here), but no commitments yet on any others. There are a few others that I will vote for but not break a sweat or a wallet for. There are others that I cannot vote for because I’m busy that day.
Exactly. The documents are “obtained”....now, what are they going to do with them?
