Wanted: Special Prosecutor
“A sad state of affairs.”
The Obama Department of Justice has hired an Obama donor to investigate the Obama IRS over its political targeting of Obama’s political opponents. Notice a theme? So does Sen. Ted Cruz, who wrote to Attorney General Eric Holder this week demanding a special prosecutor to do the investigating. “Two hundred fifty-three days have passed since both you and President Obama professed outrage at the IRS’s wrongful conduct,” Cruz wrote. “To date, no one has been indicted. And it has been reported that the FBI plans not to file any criminal charges.” Cruz concluded, “This is a sad state of affairs. The widespread perception of partisan bias, of manifest conflict of interest, besmirches the reputation of the Department of Justice. And it undermines confidence in rule of law.” Well, that is the primary plank in the Democrat platform.
