Related: About this forumRep. Elijah Cummings releases a full IRS interview transcript
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/federal-eye/wp/2013/06/18/rep-elijah-cummings-releases-a-full-irs-interview-transcript/The House Oversight Committees top Democrat on Tuesday released the full transcript of a congressional interview that he said debunks conspiracy theories about the IRS targeting controversy.
Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), ranking member of the committee, produced a complete interview transcript in which an IRS manager in Cincinnati said he elevated the first tea party case that led the agency to begin singling out conservative groups for extra scrutiny.
Cummings released partial transcripts from the managers interview last week, prompting warnings from committee chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) about releasing full interviews.
Issa said in a letter to his Democratic counterpart that such leaks could help future witnesses devise testimony consistent with the narrative that previous witnesses presented to committee investigators.

In preschool, if a child continues to throw tantrums, he or she is often made to sit quietly in the corner until he or she has thought about what he or she has done.
I feel it is Darrell "Blue Boy" Issa's turn.
