Republican Senators Rand Paul, Mitch McConnell and Rob Portman continued Sunday to press the Obama administration on the Internal Revenue Service scandal that's engulfed the White House.

On CNN's "State of the Union," Paul told Candy Crowley he heard about a "written policy" that encouraged IRS officials to target "those who are critical of the president."

"And when that comes forward, we need to know who wrote the policy and who approved the policy," Paul said.

The Kentucky senator seemed to backtrack when pressed about the existence of yet another controversial document.

"Well, we keep hearing the reports and we have several specifically worded items saying who was being targeted," Paul said. "I don't know if that comes from a policy, but that's what's being reported in the press and reported orally. I haven't seen a policy statement, but I think we need to see that."

Memo or no memo, McConnell said it's clear that political bullying is being cultivated by the Obama White House.

"There is a culture of intimidation throughout the administration," McConnell, the Senate Minority Leader, said on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday. "The nanny state is here to tell us all what to do and if you start criticizing, you get targeted."

Mitch it is brought on by the go along to get along crowd in the GOP. Just a few days ago the moderates were whinging because the conservatives would not go along with them helping obama with obama care. What was the name of that idiot women at the wall street journal, saying conservative were standing in the way of getting things done. Code word for helping the rats. She probably thinks the same thing today. Mitch you really should retire and let someone not so over the hill run.

It's infuriating that our senate minority leader knows this to be true but will do nothing more than complain about it.
This is the time for our leaders to take a stand against Obama's bullying and put a stop to it.
If not, this country as we know it is sunk.
