Congressman: IRS hearing 'showed what a giant overreach the matter is'
  MSNBC’s Alex Witt gauges House Ways and Means Committee member Rep. Lloyd Doggett’s, D-Texas, reaction from the IRS hearing. He reveals what he learned from the meeting including answers that “showed what a giant overreach the matter is” and evidence that there was no corruption within President Obama’s administration. Doggett highlights the specific political wrong that should have never occurred within the IRS and the importance of an effective bureaucratic structure that is not involved in the political process.
