The IRS, Run Amuck

Since when did Government Agencies become pawns of a particular Political Party?

UPDATE: Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell released a statement calling for the Obama administration to conduct a review of "these thuggish practices":

“Today’s acknowledgement by the Obama administration that the IRS did in fact target conservative groups in the heat of last year’s national election is not enough. Today, I call on the White House to conduct a transparent, government-wide review aimed at assuring the American people that these thuggish practices are not underway at the IRS or elsewhere in the administration against anyone, regardless of their political views

mitch better be careful ... last time he called for an investigation, his campaign became the felons, and the investigation went with the wind

Between Benghazi and the IRS it should keep the republicans busy all summer. Will stop any work for the country ..

Wow. A conspiracy come true involving the gummitt. Who'd of thunk?

Awwww, all you Nixonistas and Reganites reel it back in just a bit. As you "straight and narrow" alleged conservatives like to say, "If you've done nothing wrong, what have you got to worry about?" If you half-assed amateurs want to play in the bigs, you better have some lawyers and accountants on staff. And, they better be a few notches up from gritsboy and the Yiddish Barista.

Amen!

Then you folks think it is fine for the government to use the IRS for political purposes. Fine.

Remember, they are running your healthcare now.

Its still Bush's fault, the official dog washer says so

"I.R.S. is an independent enforcement agency," said Carney. "The -- which I believe, as I understand it, contains only two political appointees within it. The individual who is running the I.R.S. at the time was actually an appointee from the previous administration."

Another example of not taking responsibility. if you did it then you should be fired, if they work for you then you should fire them. If no one is fired then no one has taken responsibility or has been held responsible.

Carney has to have one of the worst jobs in government, trying to spin and deflect all the bullshit. I suppose every press secretary does, they don't seem to last too long in the job.

He isn't grey headed yet.
