I do not really trust the DOJ to be non-partisan anymore than congress.
That didnt happen and that is why the IRS scandal isnt a scandal.


You dont have to listen to me, my argument is for you to do your own research and simply use neutral sources.

The IRS created a list of words that would automatically trigger more scrutiny. "occupy","progressive" "equality" were all on that list. They didnt go after just Republicans, they went after everyone.

An American president will never be impeached no matter what he or she may do. Imagine what the rest of the world would think? It would be a 'PR' nightmare. It was funny hearing/reading the DEMs complain about the REPs during the Benghazi hearings and the REPs hoping that HRC is caught red handed. It was a partisan effort to not ask more questions than necessary. "I'll scratch your back and you scratch mine."

Propaganda at its best.

No it wasnt. If you would like me to, I can explain why that is a falsehood.

Obama would veto the articles of impeachment, and then blame Bush.

I hope you're joking.

The president has no power in an impeachment proceeding.

I don't know if he's joking or not but I'm getting about done with this sort of discussion. IRS scandal? You've got to be kidding me. How bout you on the right, instead of hating on the rest of us, get yourself an agenda for this country. Instead of scandals and impeachment threats how bout working with us to get some things done?

Oh, and news flash for the original poster, the last time we had a Democrat as president, he was impeached.

But we dont even need to take this up to the impeachment level.

Where was the coverage of the VA Scandal after the first couple of weeks ?????????

Republicans are terrified they might alienate someone and are in this matter, as they are in all things, a non-issue.

The real political war is between Democrats (plus a few RINOs) and tax payers.

Democrats, as they have come to exist over the past several decades, are completely alienated from net tax payers as Democrats are in the business of buying votes with money taken from tax payers.

And since you cannot bribe someone with their own money, its an all or nothing arrangement with Democrats and recipients on one side and politically unrepresented hard-working tax payers on the other side.

In other words, there can be no love between a Democrat and a tax payer......ever.
