Witch Hunt?

The House has voted to hold a former IRS official in contempt of Congress for refusing to testify at hearings over the agency's treatment of conservative groups that applied for tax-exempt status. Six Democrats sided with Republicans. Other Democrats called the vote on Lois Lerner a "witch hunt." Lerner invoked her Fifth Amendment right to stay silent when she appeared before the Oversight and Government Reform Committee. The House also has called on the Justice Department to appoint a special counsel to investigate the IRS over the way agents handled applications for tax-exempt status. The measure is non-binding. In pushing for the vote House Republicans said they doubted the Justice Department would conduct an impartial investigation.

Only a fool would think that Holder would go against Ob's orders. But then, these are POLITICIANS. "A tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing,"

The way the Demorats are foaming at the mouth indicates that there is something here that needs exposure.

Who in the Hell would belive Holder is honest except liberal Democrats? He also holds the title for the 'Worlds biggest Liar'. OweBama holds the number two spot.
