Scandals? What scandals? The big crisis here is the danger of GOP “overreach,” according to Obama media minions!
Looks like a new round of media concern-trolling about GOP “overreach” on scandals is revving up this a.m.

Yes it is. It’s the word of the day, evidently.

Anyone remember media talking about Dem overreach in '06 when Dems ran on nothingburger scandals for those midterms?Nope. Media was ally.

Huh. What prompted this latest absurdity?
No wonder there’s so much media concern-trolling about GOP overreach this morning https://t.co/IaHRBSoh08

Yep, Twitter user @JustKarl breaks it down:

That’s right: First came the DNC memo about GOP “overreach.”

And here come the lapdogs lining up to beg for scraps:
The IRS is a good political issue for Republicans. But are they in dangers of overreaching on it? http://t.co/H1sASoHrjr

Obama always lucky when it comes to his enemies: These House investigations would so much more damaging if Rs showed discipline/restraint

And he is bitterly clinging to it!
It's very clear that GOP scandal overreach is now prompting a real media backlash: http://t.co/ZJt2WAXKBT

@jcopella @justkarl And they really expect us to believe they all came up with the same talking point independently.

@justkarl They should be ashamed to call themselves journalists, they're cheap prostitutes.
— Jen Stroup (@JenStroup) June 3, 2013
Pathetic. Running scared, much like David Plouffe and his nasty attempt at smearing Rep. Issa.
@instapundit Nope, apparently they've decided to make Issa the issue – as well as "overreach."
— William Belcher (@EdB_Ohio) June 3, 2013
Brit Hume tweets that journos are eager to do “overreach” stories.
Many journalists eager to write GOP overreach stories. Issa would be wise to pipe down & let facts do the talking. http://t.co/G52yjkB8GP

Citizens see it for what it is: Panic. Panic like the wind! Real journalists? If by journalist, you mean Obama cheerleader. Sadly, those terms have become interchangeable in most cases.
It is also highly mockable; Take it away, Twitter!
In case any media people who follow me missed it on Friday, your narrative this week is “GOP overreach” http://t.co/cchd1d6Xwk

@jeffemanuel @allahpundit Wait, wasn't "GOP overreach" the theme LAST week, too?

The magic liberal word of the week – "Overreach" Expect it from all the talking heads at NBC, etc. http://t.co/nc87WIhhGu #tcot

Remember all those news stories advising Dems not to "overreach" on Abu Ghraib, Hurricane Katrina, etc? Me neither.

I just can't seem to find all the overreach articles when Dems were in control of the House.
— Heather Marie (@hfearny) June 3, 2013
@GlennThrush On cue, Obama-bot “journOlists” cry “GOP overreach” instead of getting to bottom of government scandals, i.e. journalism.
— Dan Curry (@dancurry) June 3, 2013
I think its an overreach to say that Glenn Thrush is a reporter and not a full-time cheerleader.

And win:
I am concerned the Democrats might be overreaching with their constant focus on overreach.
