Not Even A Smidgen

Day 270  added a new line to the narrative as President Obama chatted with Bill O’Reilly (The extreme Left of my family prays that we are not related to him) as told by The Daily Caller
“So you’re saying there was no corruption there at all?” O’Reilly asked.“Absolutely not,” the president replied. “There were some bone-headed decisions out of a local office.”“But no mass corruption?” O’Reilly persisted.“Not even mass corruption,” a visibly-annoyed Obama replied. “Not even a smidgen of corruption.”
 Will She Or Won’t She? Only Her Lawyer Knows For Sure.

Day 298 has everybody at pins and needles over whether Lois Lerner will testify.  And I make another appearance on Day 300 reporting from the Bizzaro world where CREW is suing the IRS for not being vigorous on political spending by social welfare groups.  On Day 301, we learn that Lois Lerner would be taking the fifth and that, at least in public, Elijah Cummings and Darrell Issa are not best buds.

Day 304 , we heard from George Will

The idea that politicians should write laws restricting people critical of them is as perverse as the idea that the sprawling, opaque IRS bureaucracy should be assigned to construe and apply such laws. 

I am forever grateful to George Will for introducing me to the works of James Gould Cozzens, so I can’t let his comments pass by.
On March 11, 2014 the House Oversight Committee issued its report on Lois Lerner’s Involvement in the IRS targeting of tax-exempt organizations.
