        @SharylAttkisson You'll recall that John Conyers tried to use this very IRS action as a count for IMPEACHMENT against NIXON. Why not Obama?

        @SharylAttkisson They probably meant to investigate Media Matters also, but ran out of time because looking at conservative groups went 24/7

        @SharylAttkisson As Benghazi story unfolds: Does this appear to be a willful "cover up"? Or is it less sinister?
