    There is no scandal here. That conservatives are still desperately beating this dead horse, thus making themselves look like idiots, is nothing that new.

    Just irritating.

    Again, the IRS admitted it acted inappropriately and, if you read down, Jay Carney acknowledged it on behalf of the White House, also deeming their actions inappropriate. This wasn't made up.

    Some people think if they deny the facts they will go away.

    Very good, now find a current story written now that we got all the facts straight (or most of them, at least) and from a reputable news agency.

    Absolutely phony. The agency had like 700 requests come in and a handful of people to process them. To sort out political from non political applications they instructed the clerks to sort them by identifiable titles.

    Yes 100% of the Tea Party groups were scrutinized....so were 100% of every other application type.

    It's phony outrage...just like Benghazi

    Have you also noticed the outrage over Obamacare? And how the GOP plan is very very similar to Obamacare? Remember that Obamacare is the idea of the Heritage Group? A conservative group?

    Turn off Fox News


    USA Today reported that two IRS employees have been placed on administrative leave over the scandal.


    IRS is still under scrutiny for admitting last month that some of its agents had specifically targeted conservative groups for additional review during 2010 and 2012. Republicans and Democrats have blasted those revelations, with President Barack Obama promising "no tolerance" for such breaches of trust.


    IRS managed to spend $50 million taxpayer money between 2010 and 2012 – including more than $4 million on one conference in Anaheim, California in 2010, which reportedly featured lavish presidential suites, video skits and gifts for IRS employees.


    When I came to IRS, part of my job was to hold people accountable," said acting commissioner Danny Werfel. "There was clearly inappropriate behavior involved in this situation, and immediate action is needed."

    Is there another definition of scandal.....Could it be scandal does not mean scandal anymore? Is this another word that is being redefined?

    some folks on here think the scandles are a scandle to undermine the president ????? :lol::lol::lol: these are the sheep.

    Who would have more facts than the IRS themselves? If they felt their actions were appropriate, wouldn't they have provided these facts in the face of allegations rather than apologizing for acting inappropriately? And what news agencies would you like to see that are more reputable than the AP?

    This is not New news.....but maybe the progressives will believe it since CNN is reporting it.......

    Now will Hillary and Obama be held accountable for their crimes?

    There have definitely been stories for some time now with anonymous sources speaking on running guns through Benghazi to Syrian rebels. The sites I saw reporting it initially were a little sketchy, so I had a hard time buying it completely. Interesting to see this bubbling up to the surface of the mainstream now.

    My theory is that with the era of 24 hour news stations, we'll never have a "Great" president ever again. I use that term as someone who unites the country and is constantly praised. There is no ratings in that.

    Think of all of the coverage the Bay of Pigs would be getting now or Iran Contra. I mean Nixon was more in trouble for lack of cooperation rather than the actual cover up. The change began around Clinton and Lewinsky and has only gotten worse since.

    Times are different now and it will take a an execptional President to unify our cable news stations. And they frankly don't want that.

    But to give the Right a bone I'll admit Obama is far from exceptional.

    routine washington business in not an Obama scandle.. this is soooooo silly.. the voters buy into the phoney debates and phoney games both sides sell... it is so out of control. We are just completely failing to handle the real issues of the time.. and we have no idea the consequences.. we are just carelessly waiting for stuff to happen.

    Was your boy Bush held accountable for all the shit HE DESTROYED? No, so Hillary and Obama won't be either. See they're all in bed TOGETHER, some of us can see that. See you on tour aerial. 8-)

    Have you noticed Bush is long gone? I am mainly into current events. I have stated before that most (or all, I would like to think there are some honest people left...just do not know where) politicians are crooks.
