Shocking: Congressional Democrats say they don’t believe the investigation into the IRS’s targeting of conservative groups needs a special prosecutor...

I wonder why? 

Via The Hill:
Leading congressional Democrats say they don’t believe the investigation into the IRS’s targeting of conservative groups needs a special prosecutor – at least not yet.
Democrats on Capitol Hill, like their colleagues across the aisle, have expressed deep anger about how the IRS handled applications from Tea Party groups.
But like Republicans, top Democrats also want to give their own probe into the issue more time, two weeks after news first broke and following three hearings left many questions unanswered.
“I think it’s too soon,” said Senate Finance Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.), whose committee held one of those three hearings. “I don’t think there’s enough evidence to warrant a special prosecutor.”

Shocker! New York Prosecutor Clears ACORN Employees Caught in Sting Video

New York prosecutor Charles Hynes has cleared ACORN of committing any criminal act for advising a pimp and prostitute (aka James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles) about how to get a house loan for a prostitution business and how to hide the ill-gotten gains. The ACORN sting videos by O'Keefe and Giles caused Congress vote to end government funding to ACORN.
"On Sept. 15, 2009, my office began an investigation into possible criminality on the part of three ACORN employees," Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes said in a one-paragraph statement issued Monday afternoon.

"That investigation is now concluded and no criminality has been found."

How is it that advising a pimp and prostitute in methods to secure a housing loan for the purpose of running a brothel and how to stash the cash from that brothel not a crime?

Here are the videos.
