If you've been paying attention, you now know that what they were looking for did not raise to the level of a security risk! As a matter of fact, the info was the same info that this same White House was going to release the next day ANYWAY!!!

FOX News has been long considered an enemy by this President!! No one should dare question him! No one should dare scrutinize him!!


We knew nothing about this man! And yet we gave him the keys to the kingdom!!

This country is getting what it deserves!

Yes it's only an accusation but I thought Holder said that he recused himself?

"Eric, I need you to investigate yourself and your actions here"

Obama Orders DOJ Review of Leak Investigations

Obama Orders DOJ Review of Leak Investigations - ABC News

I have a feeling that's not going to be good enough. Holder supposedly recused himself in the first place (even though it seems he didn't) because he was a part of those being investigated so to determine where Holder screwed up he's now instructed to investigate himself.

You know, the biased media that conservos are always crowing and whining over endlessly?

What happened to that cozy relationship between Obama and the media?

Now RWNJs are taking their side.

Strange bedfellows, indeed.
OR, it could be with some in the LSM statrting to ask questions about Benghazi and the IRS, that Obama wants to remind them about stepping out of place and bad press against him won't be tolerated.

You don't know what you are talking about. Government workers must go through security checks and if they leak information they are the one who committed the crime not the member of the press who are doing their job.

My god, you are as bad as Chris "tingles" Matthews, why don't you just try to do Obama already.

Default May232013IRS: The Internal Retribution System

IRS: The Internal Retribution System by David Bossie


"This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Watergate hearings which ultimately led to President Richard Nixon’s resignation. One point in the Articles of Impeachment signed off by the House Judiciary Committee sounds eerily similar to the devastating scandal coming out of the Obama Administration today:

Ultimately, this is a vivid example of why big government does not work. Where does the power of the IRS end? We now learn they also wanted copies of private Facebook posts, transcripts of Tea Party rally speeches, and even information about the content of prayers. And to top it all off, in 2014, the IRS will hire 16,000 agents to enforce Obamacare and allow this hyper-partisan agency to have access to your medical history."

Well the way he runs his administration and Presidency, is that of a thug, mob type, gangster type, don't cross me, don't disagree with me, don't call me out, but sing me praises.

Never seen anything like this, if this idiot were on my side, there would be no excuses made for stupidity. period.
