Irs Explodes Into A Huge Scandal Now
-
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!
-
With Holder probably going to resign, and the IRS scandal, plus Benghazi, it shows that Obama is either a very weak leader who isn't in touch with his people, or he is incompetent.
-
Watch! We can do this all day. We could do it all tomorrow. Just like the Civilian Security Force or the "rampant voter fraud" or any of the other untold amounts of bullshit you and the others have peddled in here as truth, there's no amount of information that makes any difference.
The Civilian Security Force was the dumbest, easily refutable load of horseshit the fever swamp ever put out. And yet to this day you still believe Obama is creating a scary Civilian Security Force. I saw you posting about it recently.
There's no point with you. Why bother showing you the evidence that the 157 visits story is highly misleading, and came from The Daily Caller, a laughable news site that's only notable for continually getting things wrong? You're the dumbest man who ever lived.

I think there are some portions of the IRS scandal that are quite disturbing/irritating. They're right to be getting shit from the commentators and comedians.
But let's give them shit about where they're guilty, not what they aren't. And let's not pretend it goes higher than we have evidence for just because we wish it did.
-
hey its already gone higher than we first thought remember Cincinnati flunkeys blah blah blah
tomorrow? Who can tell!
and why shouldn't it be fair to ask who benefits from this?
WSS
-
Well, here you go. Here are the numbers of groups that had their tax status approved by the IRS:
- 122 conservative
- 48 liberal/nonconservative
- 6 unknown
And they should ask questions. But asking "who benefits" and then connecting that dot in your head without evidence is what Oliver Stone and 9/11 Truthers do. You either have proof or you don't. Imagining a motive is easy.
-
Uh oh, folks.
Non-conservative advocacy groups given special scrutiny by the IRS in or after 2010 included the Coffee Party USA, the alternative to the Tea Party movement that got a bunch of press in 2010, as well as such explicitly progressive groups as the Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada; Rebuild the Dream, founded by former Obama administration official Van Jones; and Progressives United Inc., which was founded by former Wisconsin senator Russ Feingold.
Also included in the special scrutiny were Progress Texas and Progress Missouri Inc.; Tie the Knot, which sells bow ties to raise money to promote same-sex marriage; and ProgressNow, which describes itself as “a year-round never-ending progressive campaign.”

I hate to say it, but this "scandal" is starting to fall apart as well. It's looking more and more like the "targeting" was what they said it was - inappropriate search terms. There seems to be no political agenda behind it at all.
More and more, it's looking like bureaucratic incompetence.
-
so you encourage a special prosecutor and investigation?

NO! They're trying to stamp out the tea party for being too influential! Don't question it.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Two Internal Revenue Service agents working in the agency's Cincinnati office say higher-ups inWashington directed the targeting of conservative political groups when they applied for tax-exempt status, a contention that directly contradicts claims made by the agency since the scandal erupted last month.
The Cincinnati agents didn't provide proof that senior IRS officialsin Washington ordered the targeting. But one of the agents said her work processing the applications was closely supervised by a Washington lawyer in the IRS division that handles applications for tax-exempt status, according to a transcript of her interview with congressional investigators.
Her interview suggests a long trail of emails that could support her claim.
The revelation could prove to be significant if investigators are able to show that Washington officials were involved in singling out tea party and other conservative groups for extra scrutiny. IRS officials have said repeatedly that the targeting was initiated by front-line agents in the Cincinnati office and was stopped once senior officials in Washington found out.
A yearlong audit by the agency's inspector general found no evidence that Washington officials ordered or authorized the targeting. However, the inspector general blamed ineffective management by senior IRS officials for allowing the targeting to continue for nearly two years during the 2010 and 2012 elections.

It's already been established, btw, that Ms. Lerner told the one pro life group, to drop out of
political activity, and she would have the IRS audit threat cancelled. The group had to promise
not to picket any abortion clinics. Lerner needs to be drug back into Congress and testify.
