Rachel Maddow Calls Obama a Liar

The next time someone tells you (as Rachel Maddow did yesterday) that the IRS targeting scandal is “discredited,” remind them that:

* The IRS apologized for targeting Tea Party groups

* A career IRS lawyer testified it was directed from Washington

* IRS Inspector General George says that it’s clear only conservative groups were targeted

* Obama himself said the targeting to conservative groups happened, was unacceptable
