John McCain Lashes Out at Judicial Watch over Damning IRS Doc Release
PJMedia ^ | April 27, 2015 - 2:19 pm | Debra Heine

The IRS documents released by the government watchdog group on April 9 revealed that the senator, along with Senator Carl Levin, pressured the agency to go after political nonprofits – which turned out to be overwhelmingly conservative non-profits..

A May 1, 2013, email exchange between Lois Lerner and other top IRS staffers revealed that 11 days prior to Lerner’s admission in a ABA meeting that the IRS had “inappropriately” targeted conservative groups, she met with select top staffers from the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee in a “marathon” meeting to discuss concerns raised by both Sen. Carl Levin (D-MI) and Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) that the IRS was not reining in political advocacy groups in response to the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision. Senator McCain had been the chief sponsor of the McCain-Feingold Act and called the Citizens United decision, which overturned portions of the Act, one of the “worst decisions I have ever seen.” Among those attending the meeting were key aides to the committee minority ranking member, John McCain.

Nice going, Juan.

Hand someone a stick and then act surprised when they beat you over the head with it.

Oh, boo hoo, the SC wouldn't go along with your Congressional treason, McStain. If you want to eliminate the 1st Amendment call a Constitutional Convention you freaking traitor trash!

by attacking the very fabric of the Republic using the IRS as a weapon, McCain is the enemy and is as guilty as Lois Lerner who must be executed for her crimes

I’ll repeat the question I often ask on McStain threads....

Arizona, can’t you do ANY better than Juan and Flakey?

As evidence McCain offers a link to a dissenting report he released last fall

So he writes a report and calls it evidence of no wrongdoing, gimme a break, Quisling Bastard should resign

I knew at least 8 Senators were involved.
If McCain was involved, it means Linda and possibly McConnel were involved too.

Another example of why honest people rate politicians lower that whale poop.

No one is so indignant as a politician caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

McCain is just another scumbag politician who wants to be able to conduct his illegal and unethical dirty deeds out of the limelight away from the meddlesome public.
