Levin discusses IRS scandal with Cavuto and Hannity

As tea party groups and other conservative organizations reject the IRS apology, while lawmakers feign outrage and demand answers, Mark Levin made the rounds yesterday to discuss just how severe this IRS scandal is. First on Cavuto...



And yes, it does go beyond Cincinnati, as we discover that the IRS in both D.C. and California offices were targeting conservative groups too!

On his own program, Mark vented his frustrations with Congress...
theRightScoop: Mark Levin wants to know where was Congress last year when these Tea Party groups were getting targeted by the IRS and complaining about it publicly. He said the same people who are outraged now weren’t taking these groups seriously and that if it were up to Congress there would have been NO IG investigation into the IRS and this stuff would still be going on.

It’s time for Congress to take off the mittens and get serious, he says, and it’s long past time for them to understand they have power under Article One of the Constitution.
Once again, on Hannity, Levin comes down on all of Congress, particularly timid congressional Republicans, who neglected this scandal when they knew about it before the 2012 elections. Mark also weighs in on a new scandal with the AP, as well as Benghazi...



And it just keeps going, as it was revealed yesterday evening that the same IRS that targeted conservative groups also disclosed confidential documents from those groups to ProPublica last year!

I think Cavuto's quote is quite right and all-encompassing: "If Richard Nixon once famously said he gave his enemies a sword, this president might have just given them a chainsaw."
