Re: IRS apologizes for inappropriately targeting conservative political groups [W:484
The witness was evasive, and arrogant.
actually, miller was quite effective
his testimony demonstrated that the republicans are not competent enough to formulate questions needed to determine what was happening with the 501c4 applications
He did his cause and the administration much harm.
miller answered the questions superbly and demonstrated that as a career IRS civil servant he was untouchable by the republican questioners
notice how pissed the republicans congressmen were when they were unable to document a scandal via his testimony
As I posted previously, the staffers are digging in for combat.
that is clear
they know the republicans want to find some dirt on Obama
and they are not offering anything which hurts him
clearly, they are winning this battle
The members know there's blood, and they're ready too.
couldn't tell it by the results of their hearings
they are on the offensive
but now are left whining and licking their wounds
The witness performed terribly, and his side will pay.
miller so out-classed his republican questioners
Why did he do it? Probably to reduce his exposure to legal jeopardy.
no. he is being honorable
even tho he was not the republican appointed commissioner who was in command when this 501c4 problem developed and was left to fester, he recognizes that as the acting commissioner he should step down for the good of his federal agency
like i said, he is being honorable
something few of today's republicans would recognize
