Irs Explodes Into A Huge Scandal Now
-
Republicans will overplay their hand on this. They always do. Mark my word.
This is likely a small ball scandal that will involve IRS employees trying (improperly) to handle their caseload. Like with Benghazi, Republicans are so desperate to believe that this was ordered out of the political wing of the White House and involves top Obama officials that they'll go nuts trying to prove it, and will end up losing even more credibility with the public because of it.
-
Compared to the democrats, it is impossible to overplay their hand more than dems always do.
"overplay" is just wishful thinking by Obamaolots.
-
Overplay?
Certainly that's what Obama's supporters will claim from the very beginning.
Partly because most of them don't have to worry about the IRS anyway.
Second even if it is illegal, well, it hurts conservatives.
And the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
But inquuries will be made, heads will roll and the president will be shocked, shocked I say, to see if there is gambling going on in Rick's Cafe American.

Steve, your record on predicting how these scandals will play out is a miserable one. You're second to only Cal in imagining things that aren't there. And you'll be wrong again. Because you're insinuating, with zero evidence, that this came from the White House. Just like you did with the Benghazi talking points. And you were wrong about that too. You're always wrong.
Republicans will overplay their hand. Because they want to believe exactly what you believe, so they'll try and try until they get there. Even if there's no evidence.
You guys are incredibly predictable.
-
did I just predict that Obama would be indicted?
nope.
you've got to give up the paranoia once in awhile.

-
No, dipshit, you suggested with your Casablanca example that Obama obviously knew this was going on and approved of it, but will pretend he didn't. Unless you're missing the point of that scene in Casablanca, which is possible.
And the "most Obama supporters don't have to worry about the IRS anyway" ...Jesus Christ.
With your feet firmly planted in the fever swamp.

haha even Brokaw said that it would be a lot bigger deal if the parties were reversed. Hardly a limbbaugh acolyte.
but yes I'd be damn surprised if nobody any higher up than a handful of Cincinnati flunkeys had the slightest clue.
as for proof? Well probably it won't go to the top.
pleading the fifth was a nice touch though.

That's what they've got to find out: who, if anyone, told them to do this. It'll probably be some mid-level civil servant in the Washington office.
And, like with Benghazi, you'll all have to imagine how it was Obama and his political team.
Oh, so close!
-
No, it was senior level WH advisors.
who, never tell the president anything. Of course.
Why, the IRS visited with Obamao 157 times. But never, ever talked to him except to
ask about what Obamao had for breakfast. Of course.
sad.
-
Yeah, that 157 times thing isn't true. It's bullshit. You just get your news from propaganda outlets.
And there's no evidence that it involved "senior level WH advisors." None. That's bullshit, too.
If you find some evidence that this was ordered out of the White House, I'll be right with you demanding that they be run out of town and brought up on charges. But there's no indication that's the case, and they'd have to be criminally stupid to do something like that. I find it highly unlikely.
But this is how the right wing will overplay their hand. Because they imagine the reality in their heads is evidence of actual reality.
-
It isn't bullshit, Heck. I have plenty of links backing me up on the information.
-
-
Hahaha. That was classic. It's not bullshit! I've got links to back me up!
And then Breitbart.
Old man, you're just proving my point. You get news from the ill-informed and the propagandists, so you don't know why there's nothing to the "157 visits! story. And even if I tell you the truth you won't accept it. You'll still believe the bullshit. Because you want to.
And this is what is wrong with your Party. It's filled with people like you who get bad information from bad "news" sources and believe it because they want to.
You have no tether to reality, so no one takes you seriously.
Do you want me to try? It'll be fun. We all know what's going to happen. And I'm doing it with Steve in the other thread. You guys can't accept the reality you don't want to accept. You love your opinions and prejudices too much, even when they're not true.
-
haha. Where are your links to back up your "bullshit" ???
Meanwhile, "overreaching" ???
Just getting started. Jay Leno got a giant round of applause:

Schulman didn't visit the White House 157 times. He was cleared to visit the White House 157 times. How many times can they prove he actually attended these meetings?
11. 11 times.
Almost all of those visits were also in executive offices buildings, not the White House. And almost all had to do with the working group on health care reform.
There is no story there. None.
Do you accept this reality? Will you? Of course not.
-
I can't waste any more time talking to you.
-
Do you have links, or not? I read that article about it being 11 times. But that is bogus, too. I go by what all I read, all over the place.
You go by emotionally defending liberalism and liberal politicians. Alan Colmes is more objective than you.
Back it up, or shut it up. I know that the question is out there "he was only approved to visit 157 times, blah blah....
Still, your claim that WH advisors were never talked to is a joke. Link it, or clink it.
-
Why...I wonder why heck isn't posting funny stuff from Stewart anymore. He loves posting Stewart stuff.
Hmm. Let's see what Stewart has been saying....maybe that will give us an idea about that:

Did you even watch the video Cal? Or does your brain just work by going "Make fun of IRS? POST! Liberals are bad!"
That had almost nothing to do with a scandal and he just made fun of the IRS, and it was pretty funny.
So Stewart is just some stupid liberal comedian that we can't take seriously, until you think he says something you like, then its ok?
-
Like I said, Cal, you don't get it and you won't accept it, even though it's the truth. The man didn't visit the White House 157 times. Those logs are public record. The Daily Caller, and Fox News, and Michelle Malkin, and all the rest of them, are such pathetic and shitty sources of news, who don't know the first fucking thing about journalism, that they didn't even bother to ask any other question beyond the one that they hoped made Obama look bad. The story is a joke.
It took The Atlantic all of five minutes to completely discredit this story, and since then everyone is laughing at O'Reilly & company, who keep breathlessly reporting on it every night even though it's already proven to be a bogus story. Because nothing gets into that Fox/Rush/Drudge bubble.
Just like Steve in the other thread, operating on the false assumption that Scoutmasters get naked and shower with the Scouts, and refusing to accept that this is against their codes and doesn't happen, the right is operating under the assumption that the head of the IRS has visited the White House 157 times! And that sounds like proof that Obama was in on it! So ...who cares if it's not true?
That's how sad your side has become. And they wonder why their party is in such trouble. You're practically begging to be misinformed, and you resist with all of your might any suggestion that you are misinformed.
But you are, Blanche! You are!
