Obama Never Denied Involvement in the IRS Scandal

An important point I think everybody's missing.  When asked about the IRS scandal, Obama never denied orchestrating or knowing about it.  He only claimed to have heard nothing about the internal government audit report until very recently.  It was a carefully crafted response designed to hold up against any possible future charges of lying.  He technically may not have lied, but he certainly misled.

The fact he has never denied being involved in the IRS targeting of individuals he and his campaign deemed enemies I think means he was neck deep in it.  If he didn't personally order it done, it seems virtually certain he both knew and approved.

Americans, regardless of party affiliation, do not condone such behavior.  Obama should be a civilian.  Now.
