I'm not sure why anyone would waste time arguing with a Bot.

They're brainwashed and they're crazy.

It's like arguing with a trained parrot.

They're still trying to squeeze scandal out of these dead charades.

zero. Look, even if Pres. Obama had some involvement with the IRS corruption, we all know that he is clever enough to have kept his fingerprints off. And moreover, as Pat Buchannan said, the rest of term 2 is destined to be a slow bleed. If you're a partisan republican I'm not sure why you would want Obama removed from office, even if you had a video of him telling Lois Lerner to unleash WWIII on the tea party.

This is about getting as much of the truth of what happened as possible, and letting the voters decide in 2014 and 2016. Do they want a nation where a small business owner gets harassed by paid goons because she happens to hold certain political views?

Obama keeping Biden stashed away out of sight may actually work against him. Obama is starting to look worse than a potential President Biden at this point.

Over the objections of Chairman Darrell Issa (R., Calif.), Rep. Elijah Cummings (D., Md.) last week released online the full, 205-page transcript of an interview that committee investigators conducted with an IRS employee in Cincinnati named John Shafer. Mr. Cummings explained that he was compelled to release the Shafer transcript because it explodes Mr. Issa's "conspiracy theories"—chiefly, that the White House played a role in the targeting of conservative groups, and that it was orchestrated out of IRS headquarters in Washington, D.C. In fact, Mr. Issa has never said the former , and much that is known so far about the IRS scandal suggests that the Washington connection is substantial.

I see no verification's of Cummings claims.

The only claim Mr. Cummings made was that Issa was engaging in conspiracy theories. The crux of the matter, namely Mr. Sharer's testimony that the White House was not involved in directing IRS action, completely derides Mr. Issa's hope of implicating the President.

Perhaps you need to re-read his claims. I imagine you have read them though. Because they have not been forthcoming doesn't mean they were never made.

Mr Sharer doesn't state that the White House wasn't involved but all the same, the claim that it was hasn't been made yet.

Well, you can't make the connection, then. Not surprising, I must say. Even when the article is titled, "Issa accuses Obama administration".

Obviously, I need to school you some more, son.

Doubling down on stupid would involve things like trying to create a public uproar over a nonexistent "scandal" and then ending up with egg on your face, then going into semi-seclusion to avoid having to face the cameras.

I present you with: Darrell Issa, the fool on the hill.

Feel free to defend your boy's silly failed attempt to smear the president.
