Congressman
Jim Jordan questioned a 12-year veteran of the Criminal Division of the
Department Justice, a Mr. Horowitz, regarding the IRS targeting of
conservative groups seeking 501(c)(4) status. Horowitz says he knows of
no (zero, nada not a single...) "tax matter" case that was investigated
by the Civil Rights Division during his twelve year career. So why is
this scandal before the Civil Rights Division and not the Criminal
Division where criminal cases are handles? You might answer back with
'this is a discrimination case.' Come on, you know TEA-party-types can't
be discriminated against. Such groups are largely white. No, whites
can't be discriminated against under this DOJ.
Jordan
is making the point that of an estimated 10,000 attorneys in the DOJ,
Barbara Bosserman of the DOJ's CIVIL RIGHTS Division, has been chosen to
do the so-called investigation. To muddy the waters, Bosserman donated
$6,700.00 to Barack Obama. Congressman Elijah Cummins (D-MD) is on the
House Oversight Committee and adds his usual spurious commentary. Rep.
Gerry Connolly (D-VA), also on the committee, reminds Jordan that a
particular Inspectors General donated to Jordan's campaign, which has
nothing to do with the Bosserman problem. Jordan is not the subject of a
criminal matter, the IRS is.
