Full disclosure: This includes a strong defense of Sarah Palin, so weak-spine Republicans and rabid Leftists should read no further! Excerpt: Cruz [like Sarah Palin] is no stranger to ridicule. As a true conservative in a party of the faux variety, he is not only lambasted by the media elite like Jon Stewart but also by the Republican Party’s sad equivalent of a brain trust — Karl Rove, Mitch McConnell and John McCain. This past week, Sen. Cruz, the junior senator from Texas, showed why he is a worthy heir to Breitbart’s mantle of fearlessness and his sword of truth. On Tuesday, he sent a scathing letter to the commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service (John Koskinen, also known as the stonewaller-in-chief for his role in covering up the Lois Lerner scandal) expressing “deep concern” over the news that Breitbart News was to be the subject of “a far-reaching, burdensome and open-ended audit.” Sen. Cruz said the evidence “paints a disturbing picture of a coordinated assault on the First Amendment” by the Obama administration. “Given the IRS’s disturbing track record of illegally targeting conservative organizations — including the IRS recently paying a $50,000 settlement for having wrongfully leaked a conservative group’s confidential tax information — and the persistent refusal by the current Department of Justice to meaningfully investigate or prosecute those crimes, the decision to audit Breitbart News Network, LLC appears highly questionable.”
