SEN. MITCH MCCONNELL (R-KY): "I am prepared to say, and I will say today, I think the president and his political allies encouraged this kind of bureaucratic overreach by their public comments. But that’s quite different from saying they ordered it. With regard to who’s actually responsible for it, we need to find out: that investigation will go on for quite some time."

If McConnell had the creativity to think of it, he would have asked the IRS to suppress the Tea Party. What makes you think he didn't? Seriously, I'd like to know.

Ol’ Mitch doesn’t have to worry about getting primaried. He is a pro at keeping his Senate seat unfortunately. Our side has its share of LIV.

Republicans don't want to win, which I suppose is just as well, because they ain't gonna.
MA has a special Senate election on June 25 -- the hateful Democrat Ed Markey vs the ultra Liberal Republican Gabriel Gomez.
I'll be re-arranging my sock drawer.

But Benghazi does. And....it reaches that 2016 Democrat contender Hillary Clinton. This may be the best Summer ever!

Hitler never ordered the final solution of the Jewish problem. He did however put in place like minded people who Knew what he wanted and acted accordingly.

Agreed.
The only thing these jackwagons are thinking about right now is granting amnesty to be followed by Summer vacation.

Oh, I think that McConnell is right, that there would never be any smoking gun evidence to tie Obama to the IRS scandal. Obama used a dog whistle.

It is a shame to have watched the entire USA go
down on its knees to al Qaeda, narcoterrorists,
and DNC-corruption aided and abetted by McConnell
and Boehner.

The only reason I’m going to remain a registered Republican is so I can MESS with their primaries.
To: Roccus
He may have. I’m just not sure if he has that much creativity or motivation.
To: princeofdarkness
More than likely MOST of your ‘esteemed colleagues’ were the ones writing to ask the task be done.
Cruz should have your position you old, ineffective coot.

With the exception of a very few, those in congress are cabal members. They have worked against the American people time and again.
Perhaps the NSA has decimated information on these people, facilitating blackmail.
John Roberts comes to mind.

So where does the buck end? At some janitor’s office?
