It's laughable when they try to act like a low-level agent was directing the IRS intimidation. Timothy Geitner was in charge and sitting around Obama's table every day in the Cabinet.
I've always said that the free press (who turned into the Dept of Propoganda) will find out too late that their idolotry of Obama is going to bite them. Sooner or later, Freedom of the Press will be another annoying passage of the Constitution cramping Obama's style.
So did you hear what the fascists in the so-called Justice Department have done now?
They seized confidential records of the Associated Press without even offering a reason. The AP is predictably upset that all of their sources have been compromised

Can you imagine the outcry from the media if the Bush Justice Department had confiscated the records of the Associated Press without any reason or justification given?
They'd better start yapping while they can. We'll see which ones are completely bought already (besides the obvious payoffs to & from NBC)
This statement from the AP
"There can be no possible justification for such an overbroad collection of the telephone communications of The Associated Press and its reporters. These records potentially reveal communications with confidential sources across all of the newsgathering activities undertaken by the AP during a two-month period, provide a road map to AP's newsgathering operations and disclose information about AP's activities and operations that the government has no conceivable right to know," Pruitt said.
