Republican lawmakers, frustrated by the Justice Department's slow-moving probe into the IRS targeting scandal and "conflict of interest" concerns, are now calling for the investigators to be investigated.

Reps. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., and Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, on Wednesday formally requested that the Justice Department's inspector general launch his own probe into the department's review of IRS activities.

The request marks a serious escalation of their complaints about the department's conduct and, specifically, a decision to have a President Obama backer lead the investigation.

"The Department has created the appearance that it is not taking seriously its responsibility to conduct a thorough investigation of IRS misconduct," Issa and Jordan wrote in a letter to Inspector General Michael Horowitz.

The traitor occupying the White House has made it clear through his henchmen that "criminal charges are unlikely" in the case of IRS officials directing agents to hold up, investigate, and eventually deny conservative groups' non-profit political status applications. If that is not an indication of duplicity, the fox guarding the hen house, what is?

Concerns are most heavily focused on the decision to appoint Barbara Kay Bosserman to lead the FBI probe. Campaign finance records show Bosserman has given more than $6,000 to Obama's two presidential campaigns. Yeah, put your cronies in charge of investigating your federal departments. That's kosher.
