Since congress is entirely derived from popular elections, please elaborate on our lack of representation.
To me it is more understandable than ‘astonishing’.
We have traditionally counted on GOP to uphold conservative ideals and the US Constitution.
These days, when there is such obvious and blatant enmity on the part of the Administration, and the IRS in particular, for Republicans and conservatives and the GOP leadership does nothing, what would you expect as a reaction here?
All of this is borne out of utter frustration of conservatives in seeing pathetic pandering by GOPe leadership to that mythical elusive Hispanic vote via Amnesty, complete disregard for fiscal sanity, and a complete lack of substantive actions in response to the whole doggone government gone rogue. They are doing absolutely NOTHING about it. To the contrary, their only actions to date have been to belittle, demean and destroy any voter sentiment remotely connected to grass roots Tea Party activities.
Had I been a Senator on that panel and when that IRS Koskinen said the “IRS has nothing to apologize for” I’d have jumped up on the table and screamed at the top of my lungs the same words Crazy Eyes in “Orange is the New Black” did in Season One in the prison mess hall.
You sure it’s that big?
Agreed
In case anyone is wondering. This is what I was talking about:

You are not going to get anywhere near the truth until you frog march them to jail. When one has no fear of breaking the law, the law will be broken.
I am so cynical. Mark Levin has been on a screed ( and forgive me if I cannot explain the legal methodology correctly ) that they have been doing it all wrong, no special counsel, subpoena's, and securing off all the hardware and software for evidence etc.
My poor legal translation aside, I do feel they are using this as a political tool leading up to Nov. 14' whilst we do not know if any on our side agree with what the IRS did, or sent letters along with Karl Lenin I mean Levin. Yes I distrust the Graham's and McCain's that much.
They are all power hungry, they would use this tool against their adversary's should they get in power, vs. shutting it all down and going with a Flat or Fair Tax.
The IRS is mocking our impotent and abject Congress to scorn and not a penny will be withrawn from them. No one will be placed in handcuffs. No one will be impeached. We must all eat the cake of their tyranny.
Seems this ‘investigation” will never get to the end and no one will be charged with any crimes. They way this have been going, it’s almost like a lifelong, career path.
Will someone, anyone please get this thing done with.
You do know that the National Republicans have declared war on Conservatives in general, and the TEA Party movement in particular, right?
The fact is congress has unconstitutionally assigned much of its Article I Section 1 powers to the executive branch.
Congress’ constitutional powers remain on paper, but the passing of time has eroded the institutional will to assert its authority.
Do you know how contempt of Congress works? Do they send the Sergeant at Arms to arrest people?
BUMP!

Issa is a typical RINO Chairman: Lots of sharp rhetoric, but NO PUNISHMENT!
Amen, it’s a pure abdication of all responsibilities, all around. Now bureaucrats openly flaunt even the subpoena while Members think they score political points with their indignation theater. So-what if Issa is “losing patience”? What then? Where’s the boom? When does it actually get lowered?
