A top Republican senator is pressing Attorney General Eric Holder for answers following allegations by a government watchdog that the IRS may have improperly accessed the tax records of a political donor or candidate -- but the Justice Department declined to prosecute the case.

Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, questioned whether that DOJ decision was "politically motivated."

The original allegation was one of several in a letter from J. Russell George, the inspector general who oversees the IRS, to Grassley. For the first time, George revealed claims that IRS officials targeted political candidates for audits, and that, separately, donor or candidate tax information was improperly accessed or disclosed.

In one case, George said in his letter, "we presented evidence of a willful unauthorized access to the Department of Justice, but the case was declined for prosecution."

Grassley has since written a letter to Holder asking for details on who made the decision not to prosecute and why.

In a written statement, he questioned whether the Justice Department had an ulterior motive in not pursuing the case.

This headline is a joke. The justice department is a joke. Tell me, is there another recourse for a corrupt justice department?
As long as Eric Holder's in charge, there will be no investigation of anything regardless of how unlawful.

Had this ever happened before during our country's history? If so, what was done about it? Surely, with all the news of the IRS corruption, are we just to continue to let them break the law, handle our healthcare and say nothing?????? Where's the outrage????
