JUDGE JEANINE: DOUBLE STANDARD OF THE IRS



Justice With Judge Jeanine

“Judge Jeanine Pirro didn't hold back with her outrage over the Internal Revenue Service scandals. In her Opening Statement, she railed against the government ‘bullies.’”


“Now I don't begrudge anyone asserting their constitutional right to remain silent. But I can't stand it when there's a double standard. When what's sacred to them is denied to us.

This week, another senior IRS official invoked the Fifth Amendment before a congressional committee seeking answers on the Obama administration's targeting of political enemies. The Fifth Amendment!

This is the same administration that couldn't wait to trample on the First Amendment freedom of the press, couldn't wait to trample on the Second Amendment right to bear arms, that used the NSA to trample all over the Fourth Amendment rights of just about every one of us, and then of course lied about it.

Now when they're caught with their hands in the cookie jar, what do they do? They wrap themselves up in the American flag. Thank God for that Declaration of Independence, those precious constitutional rights, that body of law that allows me to remain silent, avoid the truth, keep getting a check and a bonus to boot.

Enter the Obama administration playbook. First, deny. Then lie. Then commit perjury. And if you can't beat the clock and they're still coming after you – plead the Fifth.” » Full Transcript Here
