Rand Paul claims revealing memo exists in IRS scandal

[Cincinnatus]

Might this be the "something" referred to in the thread: "WHite House Sitting on on "something" that has top aides terrified. 4th Controversy About to Break." Or is this even more of an addition to the developing scandal?

While the Internal Revenue Service maintains it was not focusing on conservative groups out of political bias, Sen. Rand Paul claimed Sunday there was a "written policy" floating around the agency that said IRS officials were "targeting people who were opposed to the president.""

Pressed for more precise details about the memo he was referring to, Paul said he hasn't seen such a policy statement but has heard about it.

"Well, we keep hearing the reports and we have several specifically worded items saying who was being targeted. In fact, one of the bullet points says those who are critical of the president. So I don't know if that comes from a policy, but that's what's being reported in the press and reported orally," he told CNN's chief political correspondent Candy Crowley. "I haven't seen a policy statement, but I think we need to see that.

Crowley immediately called Paul a big fat liar and kicked him off the show. Alright, fine, that part didn't really happen but I do hope Senator Paul is proven correct since it will blow this thing wide open and also protect his veracity (he's "heard about it").

If there is anything that they should fear, it is physical evidence that can't be denied like stories can.

This is the kind of crap Paul's old man was known for.

Unless he can PROVE the veracity of what he's saying, Rand Paul should shut his mouth.

Kinda like Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, et al...?
