An offshoot from this thread:

Meet Trey Gowdy (http://www.debatepolicy.com/showthread.php?45960-Meet-Trey-Gowdy)


I thought perhaps a separate thread would be best for a discussion on Commisioner Koskinen's political contribution habits...


Dems Fawn Over IRS Commissioner Who Contributed Over $85,000 to Their Committees, Candidates (http://www.cnsnews.com/mrctv-blog/barbara-boland/dems-fawn-over-irs-commissioner-who-contributed-over-85000-their)



IRS Commissioner John Koskinen contributed more than $85,000 to Democratic candidates and committees, MRCTV research has discovered - with a $5,000 donation to President Obama in 2012 and $19,000 to the Democratic National Committee from 1988 to 2008. This may explain the fawning "thank yous" Koskinen received for his public service from many Democrats last night on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.


I can't help but think that, when someone who has contributed almost $100,000 dollars to your party comes before you in a hearing such as the ones we're seeing with regard to the IRS targeting particular groups and people, there should be some sort of disclosure. Maybe they can thank them for the $100,000 before they begin their questioning...

Absolutely.

He is one of the major players being shielded in Lois Lerner's 5th Amendment game she's playing with the House, but the buck goes much higher than him.

$100k is a real bargain when weighed against years in Club Fed. And I'm sure he's been reimbursed since his party was brought to power... it's a gamble, but it pays big dividends when you bet on the right horse.

I wonder if he hedged his bet with contributions to Romney?

According to the article, he has never given one dime to Republicans...

Kinda like buying yourself a Barony. And folks wonder why govt agencies like the VA don't work right. It's because fools that have no clue how to run anything buy their way into these high ranking positions.

Maybe the democrats could all stand and applaud when he walks in every time.

Most Democrats, and Obama wouldn't want WE THE PEOPLE to know, or learn about this since it makes them look like the HYPOCRITES they are..and always point toward Republicans with their accusations.

Just looking at the arrogant, near vengeful expression on that man's face...reminds me of Lerner, and her "YOU CAN'T TOUCH ME" ugly expression of superiority that make you feel like SMACKING HER..just for SHIT'S and GIGGLES.
