JOSEPH FARAH — I have some experience with politically motivated tax audits. I also have some experience with the tea-party movement. I wrote the "Tea Party Manifesto,"which I am making available for a limited time for 99 cents because it is more relevant than ever. I was a headline speaker, along with Sarah Palin, at the first national tea-party convention, and you can see what I said there that I knew -- and predicted -- would lead to politically motivated audits of my tax returns...

TIM CARNEY — Benghazi. The IRS targeting the Tea Party. Feds snooping on the Associated Press. These dizzying controversies around the Obama administration all carry the same lesson: Watch what you say. On Benghazi, set aside for a moment the dust-ups over State Department officials changing talking points, White House officials misleading the media, and congressional Republicans misrepresenting administration emails...

MICHELLE MALKIN — On Sept. 12, 2012, President Barack Obama vowed to "bring to justice" the perpetrators of the deadly attack in Benghazi, Libya. On Oct. 26, 2012, Obama said his "biggest priority" was bringing the "folks" in Libya responsible for murdering four Americans to "justice." Tick, tock, tick, tock... (more)

WORLDNETDAILY — Hey, while Congress is investigating the use of the IRS to harass conservative activists, is trying to find out what the Obama White House covered up about Benghazi and is looking into why the Justice Department went after reporters' phone records, why not include a check into Obama's eligibility, too?...

ANDREW C. MCCARTHY — "What would you be focusing on in the Benghazi investigation?" I spent many years in the investigation biz, so it's only natural that I've been asked that question a lot lately. I had the good fortune to be trained in Rudy Giuliani's U.S. attorney's office in Manhattan. Rudy famously made his mark by making law enforcement reflect what common sense knew: Enterprises take their cues from the top... (more)

CLIFF KINCAID — The revelations about IRS targeting of voices opposed to Barack Obama's political agenda came of no surprise to filmmaker Joel Gilbert.
