President Obama defended the IRS Tuesday in an interview with “Daily Show” host Jon Stewart, saying the tea party-targeting scandal was actually Congress’ fault for passing “a crummy law” and that the real problem is the agency doesn’t have enough money.

Mr. Obama, who has overseen a series of scandals at the IRS, the Veterans Administration, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and now the Office of Personnel Management, was asked why government didn’t seem to be working on his watch.

But the president said he’s not to blame, using the IRS as an example of how what went wrong wasn’t his fault, and questioning whether tea party groups were ever targeted.

But it played well with the liberal Jon Stewart and his audience of liberal uninformed young people. They would like us to.believe the IRS targeting of conservstives never happened. So Obama played right into that. Who in the mainstream media will call Obama a liar???

"We in the GOP agree with our King Obama.
We support his abuse of Vets, and his support of ISIS and al Qaeda.
we agree with McCain that our voters are "crazies"
and swear to CONTINUE our coverup of his IRS attacks on conservative voters."

Who says crime doesn’t pay?

In 2015, the perps are also considered the victims. :)

See the President, illegal aliens, black thugs....

Wow! And John Stewart like Good obedient political hack just sat there and said nothing. This is 100% delusional.....

Not the alphabet channels, they'll report it as news and a vindication for 0bama from those Eevil Republicans.

FOXNEWS will be all over it, though.

When will the “opposition” party call Obama a liar? When will the “opposition” party substantively engage him? Never.
