@pirate227, And that fact is important because????No matter who appointed anyone, ethics should prevail ad O has now been in for 5 years so why blame a Bush appointee? Oh right, O’s group is always blamleess!
“Astounding that Democrats went nuts when Bush did surveillance and now are all on board.”
Not all. I do not consider myself a democrat, but I was very unhappy when Bush did surveillance. Wrong is still wrong, no matter who did it first. Be careful with sweeping generalizations.
I could just as easily say the opposite—that Republicans were all fine with Bush’s illegal wiretaps, until Obama started doing the same thing—but we both know that would be an incorrect assumption.
The IRS convention happened three months before the GSA convention, which was in 2010. Both conventions therefore happened while Obama was president but had been planned, budgeted and approved during the Bush administration. (No, you don’t set up a convention in six months or a year.)

Simple fix. Demand restitution. It would certainly make others think twice before finding ways to do nothing but waste other people’s money.

Oops! An inconvenient truth. Bush appointed the Commissioner that was in charge when this happened.

Right now, I am missing part of the cartoon so it’s hard to say.

I love how the wing nuts are always saying “Bush started it but its Obama’s fault.”

“No innocent American was killed with a drone under Bush.”
You’re right, no Americans, just many innocents; a policy continued by the next US president.

It is a shame that people can not see.

….and it continued for 5 years under Obama’s watch. Nice try, though. I don’t buy for a second that this administration didn’t know what was going on.
