In less than 2 hours.

They have been all over my FB pages, etc. What I said has really made Republicans mad.

You are so composed to think that fast on your feet while on live national TV!

Great job!

It wouldn't really matter what the subject was for you to get hate mail from foxbots,
all they heard were " He's a liberal " which is code for " Git er done, boys ".

rules regarding these types of organizations and how they should be audited or decided exept status.... Because of congress' rules making craptastic sense, its best she clams up until someone decides exactly how the wording should actually be interpreted. It may be decided by a court that the IRS interpreted some legalese wrongly.

Plus, its everyone's right to STFU if they wish. It's in the constitution. AND the pukes are after a witch hunt, they would use any type of grilling against this one woman. Govt loves creating "bad guys" to go after.

Make that "excellent" job. You did 2 things remarkably well. One, you maintained a very calm and reasonable demeanor and were able to answer hollow accusations with fact and honest analysis. Two, you managed to sit across from Eric Bolling, breath the same air as he, and not get visibly ill.

That said, Fox's moronosphere will not permit your truth to lift the fog from the creaky minds of its viewers.

I hesitated to listen because usually on Fox, the liberals are shouted down. But, you actually were allowed to make your reasonable, intelligent points.

Good work.

After almost SIX YEARS of trying to hang a scandal on Obama's administration the GOP stooges have failed to file a credible indictment much less conviction on any high ranking administration official.
The ethical purity of this administration is unprecedented.

Well, Duh, why doesn't somebody simply call the NSA and get them to deliver all those missing emails?

It would be nice to get this megalomaniacal-bazillion-dollar-Strangelovian-self-perpetuating-unconstitutional-bureaucracy to do some good for a change!

Great job once again, Steve. I'd rather put out oil well fires or defuse bombs or be a food taster for Oligarchs than appear on Fox. Thanks for the heavy lifting.
