Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell called on President Barack Obama on Tuesday to make available for questioning everyone who knew about the Internal Revenue Service's targeting of conservative groups, and demanded "no more stonewalling."

With Congress preparing to hold hearings on the IRS's holding conservative groups to extra scrutiny, McConnell said he was "calling on the president to make available, completely and without restriction, everyone who can answer the questions we have as to what was going on at the IRS, who knew about it, and how high it went."

Coming clean on the IRS scandal would mean the left losing a lot of power.
No way will they make that choice.

Yeah, real intimidating.

Did he stamp his little foot and add a “darn” when he said it?

Holder just announced that criminal investigations will begin.

This could simply be a distraction from the Benghazi stuff. I think the AP stuff is the same.

They already have people they can perp walk on both issues. Get Benghazi off the front pages is the most important thing to them.

I’m sure once he ensures all the gay pedos get kids of their very own to rape he’ll be right on it.

Mitch, I can answer that question. Hell, anyone can answer that after FAST and FURIOUS. ELIGIBILITY, EPA SCAM. BLACK PANTHER VOTER FRAUD. BENGHAZI, AP WIRE TAP.
1) I didn’t know anything about it.
2) We will investigate this all the way
3) It was all conceived and carried out by low level’s
