WATCH: GALLERY ERUPTS DURING IRS HEARING AFTER PAUL RYAN CALLS OUT A DEM REP
Jun. 4, 2013 1:36pm Becket Adams
It is always entertaining to see what happens when old guard D.C. crosses paths with “young gun” D.C.
Take, for example, the recent clash between Congressmen Jim McDermott (D-Wa.) and Paul Ryan (R-Wisc).
During a Tuesday House Ways and Means Committee hearing on the IRS’ targeting of conservative groups, Rep. McDermott said that Tea Party groups wouldn’t have been scrutinized if they didn’t apply for tax-exempt status and engage in the activities they did:

Sounds like McDermott’s blaming conservative groups for the IRS scandal, no? An amused Paul Ryan seemed to think so.
Ryan scrapped his prepared question and instead chose to respond to the Washington congressman’s bewildering characterization of the IRS scandal:

How right you are! I'd like to see some blood in the water! McDermot had the guts to sit there and attack the Tea Party representatives, and lied while he was at it. Had Gowdy been Ryan, he would have chewed him up and spit him out.

Sooner or later freedom loving Americans, if there are any of those left, are going to realize that the income tax and the IRS are incompatible with freedom and must be done away with if we are ever to be a free people again!

Jim McDermot should, by all rights, be in prison for what he did to Newt and the ONLY reason he's not is that he is a Democrat!

Wasn't Newt found innocent a year or two later?
