PAUL RYAN Destroys IRS Commissioner Steven Miller at House Hearing
5/17/13 - Rep. Paul Ryan destroyed acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller today during testimony at the House Ways and Means Committee hearing.
In heated Capitol Hill testimony, Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) pointedly asked Acting IRS Commissioner Steve Miller, "Is this still America? Is this government so drunk on power that it would turn its full force, its full might to harass and intimidate and threaten an average American who only wants her voice and their voices heard?"
He then asked Miller to name the names of those responsible for targeting conservative groups ... a question Miller couldn't answer.
Brady then asked for assurances that none of the information provided to the IRS by these groups was shared with any other federal agency. Miller said, "That would be a violation of law and I do not believe that happened." When Brady pressed him to make an assurance of that fact, Miller said, " I would be shocked, Congressman, if that happened. Shocked!"
