Nope, and they won't be either. Couple a black president that hides behind his race to deflect, and an opposition leader scared to death of that and you get this.
 
There is certainly a lot of controversy about this woman and her actions, but I think the most remarkable is that she is still employed with the government. Really?

I'm going to guess that Obama, who said there was not smidgen of corruption there, won't have much or anything to say about this. I'm just wondering if anybody ever gets punished for anything that goes on in this clown act of an administration we have. Scandal after scandal, Obama denounces it all, but what has been done to correct any of it? Has even one person been fired?

I wonder if this says something about the political acumen of Republican leadership. We are talking about probable criminal activity by the most hated government agency. Yet this story seems to get no traction, how is that possible.

:roll: Let me guess, you have one particular line that you think proves he does this, but strangely do not know what the next couple sentences out of his mouth were.

That's how this administration works. Obama gets up there, tells us how surprised he is, he just found out about in the newspaper like us, and he won't stand for it. It ends there. He does nothing else. I'm sure Lois Lerner, without actually speaking to anyone close to Obama, knows that what she did, and what everyone at the IRS did to the Tea Party, is appreciated.

Look at Susan Rice. Despicable liar. But she went out there and took the hit for them, pushing the You Tube video BS. Just an out of control protest. What did Obama do? Big promotions for her, big rewards her for lying to us.

There is a critical mass of news agencies running active interference for the Obama administration.

Wouldn't it be refreshing to see any member of the Progressive Machine carry this story? NYT, LA Times, ThinkProgress, MoveOn, DailyKos, MSNBC, etc.?

I'm thinking, not going to happen.

No,of course they won't.
 
The special prosecutor for Benghazi is a complete waste of time. The special prosecutor should have been assigned to the IRS scandal.

Don't Republicans have a duty to figure out how to work in a world of hostile media? If not they can just fold up their tents and go home.

If that had happened in any state or county, that person would be in jail for Obstruction of justice. No question.

They have, it's called Fox News.

What do you think the Republicans should do to get these media outlets to actually be an effective check on this president?

Seriously, isn't it time the "progressive" regressive movement stopped blaming everyone else? I mean to not once, but twice so far, in a thread say it's the Republicans fault for not, what? "figure out how to work in a world of hostile media"?

Do you represent all progressives in suggesting that a "hostile" media is acceptable and necessary in society? You are content with the White House using its resources to create a hostile climate? It is your "great society" that uses the media to manipulate public opinion?

It would seem so, as those propaganda based objectives have been the cornerstone ideal of the left on how to control a populace, invented by Marx, perfected by the Nazi's and continued in a slimy and secretive tradition from Stalin to Obama.

I guess it never occurred to you that the President likely called the heads of the NYT, MSNBC and had along talk about "national security" and how the future of the nation is a stake, our very lives in fact, should the Republican "enemies" return to power.

I have said nothing of the kind. Sure it is tough, but Republicans need to figure it out. Should not this way, but life is not fair and crying about it gets you nowhere.
 
When do Democrats finally give way to the critical mass levels and throw Lerner under the bus?

I'm frankly very surprised she's still a free woman. That tells me this doesn't stop with Lerner but goes much deeper into government. This administration would have no qualms about throwing anyone under the bus unless they had something worth protecting.

By going Obama and blaming the other guy, you accept these things.

But, I am glad that finally after all this time we have an Obama progressive admitting, albeit tacitly, that there indeed is scandal here worth pursing by the media and the courts. Please advise your Dear Leader of this opinion, because he's still cover it up.

Now back to regularly scheduled propaganda
