Issa: FBI impeding inquiry into IRS targeting of conservative groups

The House’s chief investigator says the FBI is stonewalling his inquiry into whether the agency and the Internal Revenue Service targeted conservative group True the Vote for special scrutiny, and Rep. Darrell E. Issa is now threatening subpoenas to pry loose the information from FBI Director James B. Comey Jr.

Six months after it began, the FBI’s investigation has resulted in no release of information. The congressmen said the FBI even rescinded an offer for an in-person briefing with the assistant director in charge of the investigation. The reversal, after the FBI consulted with the Justice Department, suggests political meddling, the two investigators said.

Just another day in Obama's America.

Similar things were brought up in the congressional hearing today, regarding Obama's pattern of obstructing the law and doing doughnuts around congress.

His perceived power has gone right to his head like a modern day Caligula.

So, a Bureau of the DO(i)J is running cover for a bureau of the Treasury? That means there is coordination at some high level, meaning that, at the minimum, cabinet members are conspiring to circumvent a legal subpeona, and at most, that they are following orders from the POTUS. This is a VERY dangerous game going into an election cycle where the HOR will almost certainly stay Republican and the Senate is likely to flip to Republican. Can anyone say impeachment?
