Irs Targets Right Wing Groups
-
Talk about inappropriate. Can you imagine if this had happened when Bush was President and it targeted left wing organizations?

not defending Nixon, and not reaching into Obama administration....
but what was once good for the goose (back then)
is somehow lost on the gander now?!

No doubt.

You guys need to get a grip though. This isn't Nixon. Watergate was run out of the White House. If this were run out of the White House I'd be asking for impeachment. But this isn't that. It's not even close to that.
Also, there's a legitimate problem with political groups claiming social or charitable group status, and the IRS is right to scrutinize those. Doing it by political affiliation is a fireable/jailable offense, in my opinion.

the blood is in the water, and the talkers (Limbaugh, Hannity) are at it full speed
if we can think ahead of time here, will there be IRS "whistleblowers" that come forward too?
and will they get to speak?
BOOM

The best part is that you think that helps.
Full speed ahead.

The Obamao regime already used IRS information as a weapon back in 2010.
***********************************************************************
In a September 16 speech, President Obama again singled out Americans for Prosperity. Even Jimmy Carter took a whack at the Kochs last week.While the attention is unwanted for the Kochs, if somewhat expected, a lawyer for Koch Industries now tells THE WEEKLY STANDARD that the administration may have crossed a line by revealing tax information about Koch Industries. According to Mark Holden, senior vice president and general counsel of Koch Industries, a senior Obama administration official told reporters at an August 27 on-the-record background briefing on corporate taxes:So in this country we have partnerships, we have S corps, we have LLCs, we have a series of entities that do not pay corporate income tax. Some of which are really giant firms, you know Koch Industries is a multibillion dollar businesses. So that creates a narrower base because we've literally got something like 50 percent of the business income in the U.S. is going to businesses that don't pay any corporate income tax. They point out [in the report] you could review the boundary between corporate and non-corporate taxation as a way to broaden the base.Holden tells THE WEEKLY STANDARD that this quotation from a senior administration official "came to our attention from different avenues. We are very concerned about why this would be said about us, particularly in this setting. We are concerned where this information would have been obtained from. We also are concerned in light of recent events that we have been singled out by the government and others as a campaign against us because of our political views." -
IRS BOSS OF DIVISION TARGETING ANTI-OBAMA GROUPS INVESTIGATED ANTI-CLINTON ORGANIZATIONS IN 1990'S
Steven T. Miller, the acting IRS commissioner who managed the division that has admitted targeting anti-Obama Tea Party groups, was one of several agents who investigated anti-Clinton organizations including Judicial Watch during that Democrat’s administration, according to court documents and interviews.
Miller, who headed the IRS Services and Enforcement Division from 2009 until the end of last year, is named in court documents as part of a trio of Internal Revenue Service officials who allegedly characterized the 1998-2001 investigation of Judicial Watch as politically motivated.
According to court papers, one agent in the case reportedly told the legal watchdog group, “What do you expect when you sue the president?” Miller reportedly added that the Judicial Watch audit, coming after the group sent the White House a lengthy Freedom of Information Act request, “had created at least the appearance of a problem.

That is FREAKIN HYSTERICAL. He nailed it...
Heckbunker looooooves Stewart. Why, I wonder why heckbunker didn't
post this.
Oh yeah. It goes against his liberal emotional spinning in favor of the democrats, whoever they are at any given time...
I forgot. For a second.
-
Ah yes. Which explains why I started this thread and said that the people involved need to be fired and possibly charged with a crime.
And why I've never posted a Stewart clip before. Because I looooovve him.
-
I'll second that. I think we've established that I like Stewart better than heck does. He agrees with Stuart more than I do but, oh well.

Daily Show points out stupid shit in politics.
What can you do if one side does more stupid shit than the other.
It also helps that ranting about evil gays or Muslim Obama can get pretty ridiculous
-
I think Stewart is going to rant about ignorant ass woodpeckerheads next.
-
Whoever said this was a mini scandal is fucked in the head.
Just wait until the IRS uses their tyranical laws to enforce this shit.
-
Apparently this entire affair will now be investigated by Eric Holder and his team.
Does anyone here think that an independent might be called for?

There are going to be members crawling all over themselves to form inquiries and task forces and commissions and hold hearings, so don't worry.

Ah, yes. This is what we'll be doing for the next few weeks/months.
What a town...

This AG Holder would cover up for Obamao if it had been Obamao with three kidnapped slaves
in the basement of our White House for ten years.
Independent prosecutors are badly needed with this bunch of radical, unprincipled Obamao cult members.
