DOJ going after reporters is important.

The other issues are right wing partisan bullshit.



unless they go after reporters from the right....then I'm sure it's just fine

though a good answer, it's not one of the choices....but in that light

"hello sir, so you have a cancerous mole to remove? please fill out this form:
- how many guns do you own and what type
- who did you vote for last election
- are you sympathetic to any of the follow causes or groups (list)
- what kind of car do you own
- provide income statements for the last 12 years and that of your spouse, siblings and first cousins
- do you work for or watch Fox News
- what is the cash value of all jewelry in your home
- do you play with model planes or rockets
- would you please install this tracker on your non-hybrid car
- how many times a week and what position do you have sex
- for the record, please name three individuals that you know or suspect are discontent with the current administration

we'll review your answers once EACH and every one is fully completed (please see the grammar and presentation format requirements appendix) - at that time, the review process will start and should take 2 to 16 months for you to be contacted to arrange a pre-screening review"

let's see: speech, privacy, guns, hobbies, property, income, social orientation, personal life,

that should do it

The IRS, because it's the only one that involved intentional wrong-doing, even if the effects are being ridiculously overstated. The ends don't justify the means, but I think the easy solution is to do away with tax-exempt status for all such organizatins, regardless of their political perspective.

I'm fine with using surveillance to find who in the government is releasing classified information to reporters.

Bengazi was unfortunate, but far worse happens in the US every single day. It's just a bunch of people trying to use 4 deaths to make a political point (the same people who criticized Cindy Sheehan for doing the same).

I don't know enough about "Fast and Furious" to have an opinion.

I like to delete the following words:

"such", "political", "perspective"

I love the part where the official claims all is fine, then invokes her 5th.

The part that has me care less about this though came up on Colbert. He has his own super pac and didn't register for official status because that's a voluntary step, not a requirement of a 501c4.. So is this all a lot of gnashing over little?

Fast and Furious is a much bigger deal to me due to the lying to congress, as well as the stupidity of it all. Let's give guns to drug cartels and see what happens!

The tracking of reporters is also a pretty bad one -something that should be nipped in the bud.

To me it's the journalist(s) being targeted. The reason is that it is journalists who tell us about government nefariousness. Journalists may not be willing to report about nefariousness within the government.

Without open journalism, our President would find himself utterly uninformed of world events and remain ignorant, for as he has reiterated, he doesn't learn of these things until we do.

Benghazi replaced Fast and Furious for me.

As a military veteran, I find abandonment of your warriors in dire straits deplorable. It conjures the old feelings from the 80's when I was involved in the repatriation of MIA/POW's from SE Asia.
Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

You know, we used to pride ourselves in doing whatever we could to bring our dead and injured home off the battle field. Soldiers, as a group, still do that....except when the goobermint ties their hands and stands them down.
