HIs second term was going to be more of a national nightmare than his first if things like this DIDN'T come to light.

Even if the tail can't be pinned on the donkey in the oval office it still refutes the entire, "It was a low level rogue operation that no one else knew about."

Kudos to Rep Kelly. His points on what others have to deal with when the IRS oversteps their bounds while the IRS expects to be dealt with leniently are right on point. Reading through some of the 'gate' comments, I personally cringe when I hear 'gate' added to the end of something. Just call it what it is, a scandal. Teapot Dome remains a significant scandal to this day yet scandals aren't given the moniker 'whatever_dome". In a way it trivializes the importance of what's being investigated at the time.

Burton never said the talking points themselves were valid. He essentially said that those are what Rice was given to work with. As for the points making sense, that's if you're the type of person that believes it's sensible to go with the least credible option.

It sounds a lot like the affordable care act.

And here comes another round of 'executive privilege.'

"I’ve directed Secretary Lew to hold those responsible for these failures accountable, and to make sure that each of the Inspector General’s recommendations are implemented quickly, so that such conduct never happens again." So what happens if Secretary Lew knocks on the door of the Oval Office to deliver the message that the president and the attorney general need to be fired?

Clint had it right on the money when he had the dialogue with the empty chair.

Benghazi, nah! Pulling executive privilege for Holder after he was cited for contempt,,nada! IRS paying a little more attention to non-progressive non-profits, no comment. Tampering with the press!!!! Nuclear Event. No bias here.

Sheer coincidence. Nothing to see here, no 'there there' moment to be had. Move along.
