Cleta
Mitchell, attorney for an assortment of Tea Party groups that received
very special attention from Barack Obama’s politicized Internal Revenue
Service, lowered the boom on what she described as a “sham,
non-existent” Justice Department investigation of the scandal during
House Ways and Means Committee hearings on Thursday:
“I want to make three primary points here today,” said Mitchell.
”First, the IRS scandal is real. It’s not pretend, it’s real. Number
two, the IRS scandal is
not just a bone-headed bunch of
bureaucrats in some remote office contrary to what the President of the
United States told the American People on Sunday. And, number 3, the
IRS scandal is not over. It is continuing to this day. And the
Department of Justice Investigation is a sham. It is a nonexistent
investigation.”
Her one-sentence summary of the scandal was powerful stuff: “The IRS, at the direction of some political elites in Washington -
not in
Cincinnati, but Washington – took what had been, for decades, a process
of reviewing applications for exempt status that, for 501(c)(4)
organizations, could be expected to take three to four weeks, and they
converted that process into one that took three to four
years, and in some cases is still not over.”
This false scandal? Impeach now!
