One would think that our liberal “friends” who are vets would be bothered with this would join the republicans in putting an end to the IRS. Many did express outrage when news hit about the IRS targeting groups but don’t hold your breath that they will lift a finger over this either.

Does anyone in DC have a spine to stop the abuse or will we be subjected to more scathing letters and rants during hearings again?! We want action not talk and there is no one in DC to do that.
