Political Quotes

“Mr. President, I rise to speak about the resignation of Acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller. The request by President Obama and Mr. Miller's resignation is too little too late. This is just another example of the President continuing to search for a scapegoat for his own administration's misdeeds. The American people deserve trust, and this egregious abuse of power demonstrates the worst fears of the American people that they cannot trust their government. It has been 2 years since these incidents were first reported, and while Members of Congress were led to believe no malfeasance occurred, the details of the IG report were more shocking than we could have realized, as many conservative groups were not only targeted for additional reviews but were harassed as well. Moreover, in some cases, information was purposefully leaked by the Internal Revenue Service. These actions are unacceptable, and while President Obama's reactions seem to be sincere, he has not yet demonstrated to the American people that all of those responsible will be brought to justice. Above all, we have to make sure this never happens again.”
