The courts have something called “the clean hands doctrine”.
It is based on an ancient principle of law “Those who seek equity must do equity”...
Unclean hands makes the person lose standing.
I am sure FReepers on the ball can figure out what this means.
“I knew instinctively that if there was going to be any coverage, it was not going to be the bombshell of Lois Lerner taking the fifth again. It was going to be that little stunt that the Democrats pulled. This was designed solely for media attention. This was grandstanding. This was just an old game in Washington, but they knew that they can get headlines from it.
And that idiot Issa fell for it. He gave Elijah Cummings (Lawn Jockey, MD) exactly what he was looking for. And he “cemented” his “relationship” with his constituents as a fringe benefit because “he gave it to Whitey.”
She MUST be given prison time and this must be pursued further up the chain. Get Valerie Jarrett to testify. Why is this woman always hidden in the shadows? This government unaccountable to the people and not held accountable for their crimes must be stopped.

The “courts” are in almost complete control of the bolsheviks taking over the country.
I’m not sure we can get out of this without a very messy struggle.
The alternative is to slip into the black abyss of totalitarian statism until it is either crushed from within or without or both.
My apologies for misunderstanding you
Cummings plus the MSM. Whadda Team. Give the Dems some credit. There is simply no doubting their excellent orchestration skills. Issa should have walked out immediately after he adjourned the meeting.
On the contrary, she would SO do this "of her own volition" but would be restrained by the possibility of being punished for it. However, with the current admin, Obama and Holder, that restraint was inherently removed.
When your party does better than I will listen to you
Watergate was a John Dean operation to retrieve the Black Book of prostitutes the DNC used for entertainment. Among the names was Dean’s girlfriend and future wife.
Nixon was never involved in any aspect of the break-in but only the cover-up to protect his lieutenants.
Anyone who believes that the MSM and its allies will report anything but rainbows and unicorns about the Marxist takeover of this nation is simply deluding themselves.
The difference this time is that the entire Rat Party is in on the coverup.
Pretty much the case.
And whatever the facts of the scandal, you can rest assured that the inept Issa won’t get to the bottom of it.
Bozell is right, of course.
But Benghazi is bigger than the IRS scandal
And Fast and Furious is bigger than Benghazi
And Obama’s identity is bigger the Fast and Furious.
I guess the IRS scandal is given the most attention because it has the most active leads.
Exactly. If the media were doing its job and acted as aggressively as they did with Watergate—recruiting sources, connecting the dots, all the things reporters used to do—this Administration would be toast.
There is no crime this Administration could commit which would arouse the slightest interest on the part of the lame-stream media.
It's only after the tyrannical government is deposed that the guilty parties become criminals.
Ironically, the United States of America actually prosecuted the leaders, politicians, police and soldiers of such a tyranny within the last 70 years.
And now, the United States has become what it prosecuted. The hypocrisy is many layers deep.
All obama scandals are bigger than watergate...
The only thing that made Nixon’s watergate a scandal, was the media...IMO!
In my view it was nothing more than political shenanigans, as a result there weren’t dead bodies, and thousands of honest citizens harassed by the IRS.
President Nixon later joked about it. He said it was a really dumb idea to bug the DNC HQ. They should have bugged McGovern’s HQ.
They ONLY cover scandals involving Republicans.
So...no scandal
