Dems Fawn Over IRS Commissioner Who Contributed Over $85,000 to Their Committees, Candidates
MRC thru CNS News. ^ | June 24, 2014 | Barb Boland

IRS Commissioner John Koskinen contributed more than $85,000 to Democratic candidates and committees, MRCTV research has discovered - with a $5,000 donation to President Obama in 2012 and $19,000 to the Democratic National Committee from 1988 to 2008. This may explain the fawning "thank yous" Koskinen received for his public service from many Democrats last night on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

Oh Oh the Commissioner has some problems too:

“Why are you here? You apparently know how things are going to turn out and have clearly given up. That only leaves making sure to drag everyone else down with you.”

Again with nonsense response. You haven’t addressed my question at all. HOW and WHERE will help come? You don’t have an answer do you?

Elijah Cummings was practically kissing Koskinen rear end in the hearing the other day. Buncha lying old losers both of them.

I think I’ve proven my point about your kind.

You just want everyone to agree with you that its all pointless so why bother trying.

I know, right? And they gush over his “public service” and thank him for being there, like it’s just out of the goodness of his heart. This assholes have this arrogance that they are working for the “public good” while pulling down above average salaries with the best of benefits, plus bonuses and pensions that most of the private sector hasn’t seen in decades, if ever. He had a spare $85,000? Are you effing kidding me?!

The House needs to do what was done to the AIG execs. They need to set up a special tax bracket of 100% for all people with a last name of Holder, Lerner, Koskinen, etc. for the rest of their lives.

They should allocate Lerner’s taxes to pay for a copy machine that automatically makes paper copies of all emails as they are sent and received. The savings from drastically-reduced salaries of IRS workers should be allocated to buy the paper for the machine, which shall be called “The Lois Lerner Memorial FU”

And Koskinen’s taxes should pay for a similar copier at the NSA.

And Holder’s for the EPA.

Etc.

Elijah Cummings is a co-conspirator with Lerner. Why isn’t he in jail?

This Pr_ck deserves to be behind bars. The RICO statute should be invoked against these racketeers, who run a criminal extortion ring instead of collecting taxes according to law, IN VIOLATION OF THE CONSTITUTION, includingthe obstruction of justice. HOLDER refuses to act, and he should be immediately impeached by Congress.  photo IRSKosk_large_zpsfcef5d95.jpg

President Barack Obama’s nominee to lead the IRS has a net worth between $7.1 million and $27.4 million, according to financial disclosure reports released by the Office of Government Ethics.

John Koskinen, the former non-executive chairman for Freddie Mac, said in a disclosure letter that he would resign his position as a member of the board of directors for AES Corp. and American Capital, Ltd. if he’s confirmed.

Who says you can’t buy or sleep your way to the top?

That is the whole history of the Democrat Party since at least 1992.

The IRS Commissioner at least was consistent over time and it paid off.

Now to really pay him off with jail time. He’d look a lot less smug and arrogant in an orange jump suit and an “I love Bubba” sticker on it.

These bureaucrats are paid with my tax dollars, which they use to pay THEIR taxes and then make donations to other government growers.M

From the article:
........................" prior to his appointment to the IRS six months ago, Koskinen worked as non-executive chairman of publicly-traded Freddie Mac (from 2008 to 2012.)

Koskinen was CEO at Freddie Mac in 2009 (He earned a cool $550,713 for his "service" that year). "........................

It only takes $85,000 to get a high-level job like that? I bundled over $40,000 for Fred Thompson alone. I must be doing it wrong. LOL

Time for a special prosecutor to be appointed

Exactly. If ever a special prosecutor was appropriate this the time.

I doubt a republican president with a republican congress would do anything about it. He’ll say “I think we should move on.” Where did I hear that? Oh, yeah. W said it1

And Holder will appoint one? DON’T THINK SO. Anyway, without some cooperation from the donks on the committee, this hearing will go nowhere.

I’d bet that none of them have been audited and probably got refunds they shouldn’t have.
