A House panel voted today to hold former IRS official Lois Lerner in contempt of Congress. A full house vote will follow at a later date.

With mounting evidence implicating Lerner (and certain Democrats for that matter), the House Dems are circling the wagons and accusing Republicans of McCarthyism:

Ugh.

And expect the number of mentions to only increase as soon as the Dem-friendly members of the MSM get their talking points memos.

Dems: This is McCarthyism!
GOP: No, it's not.
Dems: That's what people think it is.
GOP: Because you're calling it that.
Dems: McCarthy!— Pete Kaliner (@PeteKaliner) April 10, 2014

Democrats: "WITCH HUNT!"

Republicans: "Here's evidence that Lerner targeted Conservatives."

Democrats: "McCARTHY!!"— Matthew (@Matthops82) April 10, 2014

Why the “McCarthyism” accusation from some Democrats in regards to holding Lerner in contempt? Some believe it’s simply because the race card is off the table:

Dems throwing around the “McCarthyism” accusation won’t or can’t appreciate the irony in doing so:

Possible Dems’ answer to that question: “Because McCarthyism!“
