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.

Using the IRS to target conservative groups was just one component to the 2012 Obama reelection campaign. Axelrod and Jarett knew they could not win on Obama’s pathetic record, so a Chicago/Alinsky style campaign was launched:

- phony war on women, kicked off by Stephanapolis
- binders full of women
- bully in high school haircut
- dog ride on car
- no taxes paid for 10 years
- lies about Obamacare
- Benghazi cover-up
- Bin Laden dead, GM alive
- Others

The petty items were media distractions to avoid rational debate about Obama policy failures, the big lies gave low-information voters a reason to reelect.

The Obama campaign team needs to be put under oath on this IRS tyranny.

What the hell is Cummings going on about now? He sounds like he was taken down a couple of notches in attitude thought.

Looks like Cummings didn’t get much sleep last night.

He was up all night consulting with his attorney.

Wish Gowdy would ask, “What about the OBSTRUCTION OF AN INVESTIGATION Mr. Cummings?”

[rainee]

Couldn’t understand his mumbling but think he was talking about Lerner’s rights..
Wow. Such a slimeball.
