Chris Matthews ( the one who got the "thrill up his leg" from Obama) doesn't seem particularly pleased with Obama now.

"He does run the IRS. He runs the Treasury Department. He runs the United States government, and he is accountable for it, and this is nonsensical."

President Obama "obviously likes giving speeches more than he does running the executive branch," Chris Matthews said tonight.

"What part of the presidency does Obama like? He doesn't like dealing with other politicians -- that means his own cabinet, that means members of the congress, either party. He doesn't particularly like the press.... He likes to write the speeches, likes to rewrite what Favreau and the others wrote for the first draft," Matthews said.

"So what part does he like? He likes going on the road, campaigning, visiting businesses like he does every couple days somewhere in Ohio or somewhere," Matthews continued. "But what part does he like? He doesn't like lobbying for the bills he cares about. He doesn't like selling to the press. He doesn't like giving orders or giving somebody the power to give orders. He doesn't seem to like being an executive.”

(This is the second time I am answering this question.)



The alleged "scandal" does not involve auditing personal tax returns based on political affiliation. The IRS scrutinized applications for tax exempt status submitted by politically oriented organizations BECAUSE they are politically oriented and applications are approved or rejected BASED ON that criterion. NO application from any teabagger organization was rejected by the way, not one, so what exactly is your fear? Your application for tax exempt status for your Koch brothers funded political hack think tank might take a week for approval as opposed to two days? Yes, you have a reason to fear the IRS because of this IF you are a totalpussy.

hiya Donny! i'm no longer possibly a huge Matthew McConaughey fan, yet i admire Dazed and at a loss for words and Tropic Thunder. BQ: i do no longer comprehend why yet i've got have been given a feeling that he's going to be extremely good in it. Like a Jonah Hill / money Ball style deal. BQ2: that is style of tricky to assert, he's in a number of chick-flick's, that are no longer precisely the styles of flicks that elect to exhibit his performing skill. yet from his extreme roles he sounds like a extremely first rate actor. in spite of the undeniable fact that i've got no longer viewed The Lincoln criminal expert, which became interestingly his maximum suitable overall performance BQ3: bare, Paris Je'Taime, The dark Knight Rises BQ4: Deliverance, Contempt, 13 Assassins BQ5: bare BQ6: It seems wonderful, i'm extremely excited for this action picture. i in my opinion enjoyed The Assassination of Jesse James, and that i actually enjoyed Chopper! BQ7: no longer on the 2d

No, he isn't running a political operation disguised as a 'social welfare' organization. If he were then the answer would be "Yes".

Obama is very upset and should be.

He will get to the bottom of it and when he does, look out.
