While CNN runs with the two-rogue Cincy scoundrels! whitewash theory, certain British papers with real journalistic skin in the game do some actual reporting.  The Daily Mail: Letters from the IRS to tea party-related organizations in Oklahoma City and Albuquerque, New Mexico show that IRS headquarters in Washington, D.C., and two satellite offices in California, were directly involved with sending harassing letters to conservative organizations that sought tax-exempt status. The

Interesting.  And without a doubt built upon racist, sexist, and homophobic hypotheses — nothing more than politicized assertions strung together and meant to frustrate the little bitchy metrosexuals who bang the gong for the welfare state, and whose virility cannot be questioned — trying to pass themselves off as “science.” Having stipulated that:  where do the faux-conservatives and RINOs fall on this scale?  Physically speaking, I mean?

I grant you that it’s difficult to parody the strained jargon of the metrosexual agonizers and penis deniers, as I attempted to yesterday with my post on the baseball team that pulled a car off  a trapped young girl, but I must point out that it is reactions like this one that suggest I can still pull it off with stunning aplomb.

It’s beginning to look like Jake Tapper may single-handedly save CNN: CNN has obtained an email sent by a top aide of President Barack Obama, in which the aide discusses the Obama administration reaction to the attack on the U.S. posts in Benghazi, Libya. The actual email differs from how sources characterized it to two different media organizations. The actual email from then-Deputy National Security Adviser for Strategic Communications Ben
