WASHINGTON – House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) issued the following statement on Ranking Member Elijah Cummings’ announced intention to post the full investigative interview of IRS employee John Shafer on the Internet in the middle of an ongoing investigation into the facts and origins of IRS efforts to target Tea Party groups:
“I am deeply disappointed that Ranking Member Cummings has decided to broadly disseminate and post online a 205 page transcript that will serve as a roadmap for IRS officials to navigate investigative interviews with Congress. After unsuccessfully trying to convince the American people that IRS officials in Washington did not play a role in inappropriate scrutiny of Tea Party groups and declaring on national television that the case of IRS targeting was ‘solved’ and Congress should ‘move on,’ this looks like flailing. Americans who think Congress should investigate IRS misconduct should be outraged by Mr. Cummings’ efforts to obstruct needed oversight.
“In the course of this fact based inquiry, Ranking Member Cummings has wrongly argued that questions about IRS conduct are somehow not legitimate. His own previous release of excerpts from this very same transcript undermines his claims that the Committee is somehow trying to keep some specific revelation from public view.”
Cover Up Cummings ,trying some creative writing ?
CONNECTING THE DOTS: Obama's stranglegold on Treasury via COS Rahm Emanuel's dual role
THE TARGETING PAPER TRAIL BEGINS: Soon as they occupied the WH, Obama and the Chicago con artists (a) took control of the US Census; (b) Obama placed his COS Rahm Emanuel in control of the US Dept of the Treasury (the IRS).
==========================================
THE SMOKING GUN---WSJ REPORT--On Jan 20, 2009 Timothy Geithner was appointed Obama's Secy of the Treasury. But within three weeks, the Obama White House tightened its grip on Treasury. Obama put his COS, Rahm Emanuel, in charge of Treasury---Rahm Emanuel's dual role was an unusual move.
When he got to Treasury, WH COS Rahm Emanuel was so involved in the inner workings of the Treasury that the phrase "Rahm wants it" had become an unofficial mantra among subservient govt staffers, prostrate in obeisance, scurrying to accede to Rahm's wishes, according to Treasury government officials. Reported by WSJ / 05/31/09

===============================================
The meticulously researched timelines posted allover FR are significant since they chronicle the times the Tea Party began heating up---holding massive rallies, and showing up at townhalls to protest Obamacare.
The arrogant, self-entitled Obamatons surely went ballistic. Does not take much imagination to know the WH con artists were thinking up demonic ways to stop the Tea Partiers who stood in their path.
SIGNIFICANT Remember that the Obamatons also took over the census. When Rahm Emanuel landed at Treasury, he had all the tools at his disposal to target individuals, tea parties, patriot groups, and so on.

MOMENTS TO REMEMBER Obama was fond of saying "Tea Parties are a threat to democracy."
Obama told hispanics, " we will reward our friends and punish our enemies."
Valerie Jarrett ominously warned, they "would not forget" which Americans did not worship Obama.

Democrats NEVER see their duty as being the investigation of other Democrats. They ALWAYS act as defense council instead of investigators. Liberal psychopaths will do this kind of thing every time.
Just look at a picture of Elijah Cummings and you will readily understand what he is doing and why he is doing it.;
Meaning "rat".
Sorry but here is where my mind went to when I read the headline.

The IRS is the armed collection agency for the continued existence of the federal kleptocracy, and those on the booty counting end will defend it to the death.
Maryland Rep. Elijah Cummings....dumber than a box of rocks. One of the stupidest Congress crittters
The second an IRS TE (technical examiner) begins working on a taxpayer request, the computer system begins a clock to measure completion time of various steps. Deadlines are crucial to meet “timeliness” criteria to protect taxpayer rights.
With some of these 501(c)(4)that languished for two years, Some authority had to override the system, not once but multiple times to cause a delay that was severely out of bounds. Those fingerprints are still in place. And they belong to senior managers at the D.C. level.
Issa needs someone who knows how the system works, and who stuck a stick in the taxpayer safeguards.
