Will the POTUS now be a lame duck limping along until 2016 or do you think the President can win back the press and the American people after firing Holder and others?
Specualtion says Deval Patrick has already been asked to replace the embattled Attorney General.

Obama could get caught drowning puppies and the majority of the media be ok with it. Can't blame them though, after all, the media wouldn't want the current regime seizing their records...or worse.
Good point. Don't want to go after the IRS too hard, just might get audited. Fox News has been joking about that all week, accusing each other of attacking the IRS while they fully support them and consider the Internal Revenue Service to be one of the most ethical groups to ever assemble an enemies list. :rofllol

"Enemies list" IS an accurate description, especially since Obama once referred to these targeted groups as "enemies of democracy". The IRS was just ferreting out Obama's enemies.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
Obama, if you aren't with us, you are an enemy. Didn't he warn Hispanics about that a couple years ago?
Think the White House is looking like the Saigon Embassy right now, burning and shredding what documents they have and preparing the choppers for liftoff. :splat:

That's what I thought a few weeks ago, but as all these fubars rise to the surface, and then Obamacare kicks in, the people will start coming unglued if more taxes (beyond Obamacare) drag us down further. Obama thrives on being loved and he's gonna have to find some way to salvage the last bit of love before he leaves office. jmo

Nothing will come of it. Obama has insulated and protected himself. I disagree with his ideas, but give him credit for being really good at politics - he's the teflon man.
If anything, this will play badly for the Republicans because of their over-the top early reactions. A moderated response would be much better than rabid screaming for impeachment. I think as facts come out it will become more and more obvious even to his supporters that Obama had to have had a hand in this despite his aide's willingness to fall on the sword for him.
