Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.) accused the Obama administration of misleading Congress and hiding evidence in order to conceal the effort by the Internal Revenue Service to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status.
The Hill reported that McConnell slammed the White House in a statement Wednesday following the release of a bipartisan Senate Finance Committee report that revealed the extent to which the delinquent IRS mismanaged applications from Tea Party groups.
The report makes clear that civic groups were harassed specifically because they identified as conservative, McConnell declared. It underlines the seething contempt partisan officials like Lois Lerner had for them. It also reveals that administration officials continually misled Congress and attempted to hide evidence that might have brought the truth to light sooner.

Turtle will roll over on his back and continue to screw us all.
Butt holes like McConnell are why I no longer identify with the Republican Party.
I hate the word “misled” in this title. It should be LIED, there is no other word for what they did.
I’m not defending Flubber Face at all; but c’mon, NOBODY is as idiotic as Joe Insurance Policy.
The lie is the weapon used most often by the criminal. Why are you complicit, Mitch?
