WASHINGTON A House committee is voting on whether to hold a former Internal Revenue Service official in contempt of Congress for refusing to answer questions at a pair of hearings.

So in reading back thru the thread, the RATS who went after conservatives seeking an IRS EIN# treated them like they say McCarthy treated their COMMIE brethren, are claiming that Issa and the members of the committee are being McCarthy towards this new crop of COMMIES who are witch-hunting the TEA party using the IRS?
He’s outraged that his role in using the IRS to harass Americans has been exposed.
It’s their biggest and best play out of their old, tattered Alinsky playbook.
We need to come back out ready to fight fire with fire.
5 min. after the start of the vote. on the House floor.
You got it, sis.
Bummed I missed Gowdy :( ...
LOL. Good summary.
Gowdy had fire in his belly.
Hope Issa is mad enough and strong enough to slam dunk this thing, now.
{{HUGS}}. Right on your assessment and deserving of {{HUGS}}. May wife will forgive me for these {{HUGS}}
I don’t think Gowdy took his turn; another rep yielded his own time to Gowdy.
Charles Cooper, former assistant attorney general during the Reagan admin: No barriers to holding Lerner in contempt http://thehill.com/opinion/op-ed/203090-no-barriers-to-holding-lerner-in-contempt
[link not complete: will try to find. This is from Twitter, after the start of the recess.]
No lack of evidence on these criminals (plural). Slam Dunk, Issa!!! So What Are You Going to Do, Issa? Put up or shut up time for Darrel.
Does that give Gowdy another 5 min. ?
Here come the Elijah Cummings tears. Puh-lease!
Cummings pulling out the old slavery story. Give. Me. A. Break.
Lois Lerner and the IRS broke the law!
>Does that give Gowdy another 5 min. ?
I would think so. I hope they’re saving him for slamming Cummings for his coordination with Lerner. Cummings already has ethics violation charges filed against him.
Hope he mans up. I’ll believe it when I see it but hope springs eternal.
Yesterday on the top of the hour radio news, the FOX newsreader lightly summarized the Lerner situation but gave the ‘opinion’ last word to a rat who called the entire investigation ‘Politics’.
I really don’t think Americans understand what happened here. Our reps in their campaign need to broadcast it far and wide. What if, say, Occupy Wall St. was happening under Bush and he sicced his IRS on the applicants, denied their applications and sent OSHA, FBI, etc to investigate THEM like what’s happened to Englebrecht of True the Vote?
