    Obama’s IRS Scandal Sure Looks to Run a Lot Deeper Than Reported

    Phony scandal, huh?

    "We now know that IRS honchos shared information about conservative groups with other agencies, using the vast data in the IRS databanks to help other federal officials make cases against conservatives. Now we need to know how much, how often and what kind."

    Lamestream Media is still covering for Obama & Holder et.al.

    A bunch of people are learning that you can't just claim tax-free status without scrutiny.

    Issa goofed big time on this and then the wingnuts took it and ran with it. They made a huge deal about it but then the truth of the situation came out and it became apparent that maybe these groups should get investigated. Now the administration has the political cover to actually do an investigation.

    Issa inadvertently exposed the long con going among the right wing media figures and think tanks, same as when Issa and the teabagger freshmen in his cosy little committee blabbed to the media that there was a CIA post in Benghazi despite the fact it was supposed to be a secret.

    Yep, it's still going on...

    IRS caressed liberals, harassed conservatives.

    According to Team Obama’s “phony scandal” narrative, when the Internal Revenue Service processed 501(c)(3) tax-exemption applications, it equally tormented liberals and conservatives. No big deal, the argument goes. The IRS suffers from even-handed inefficiency rather than an un-American habit of slamming critics of the president of the United States.

    Unfortunately for the Obamites, actual facts annihilate their pathetic incompetence defense.


    Heads gotta roll...

    boon... when you cut and paste these multiple stories... do you actually read any of them or are they posted like that on a website?

    have you figured out that the problem is in the definition between the law and the IRS code as to what a is considered primary goal of social welfare?

    from the democrat who is suing to have this changed/clarified

    “The IRS should not be in the position of having to determine whether the primary purpose of any organization is to engage in political campaign activity versus the promotion of the social welfare,” Van Hollen wrote in May, shortly after the IRS targeting controversy broke. “Requiring full disclosure and transparency would go a long way to getting the IRS out of the business of making these determinations.”

    please tell us how this particular article somehow proves a "scandal"?

    why don't you and the rest of your ilk just wait for Obama to get a blow job? Its your only hope at this point... Where is Monica Lewinsky when you need her?

    IRS SCANDAL UPDATE: Investor’s Business Daily: IRS Gave Black Nonprofits Preferential Treatment.
    At the same time the IRS harassed Republican nonprofit groups during the 2012 political campaign, it selectively advised black churches and other Democrat nonprofits on how far they can go in campaigning for President Obama and other Democrats.

    This raw exercise in political favoritism has not been reported in the context of the still-smoldering IRS scandal, in which the agency in 2012 audited big GOP donors and blocked Tea Party groups trying to obtain tax-exempt status as part of what House investigators suspect was an effort to re-elect the president.

    But that same year, top officials with both the IRS and Justice Department — including the IRS commissioner and attorney general — met in Washington with several dozen prominent black church ministers representing millions of voters to brief them on how to get their flocks out to vote without breaking federal tax laws.

    The “summit” on energizing the black vote in houses of worship was hosted by the Democrat-controlled Congressional Black Caucus inside the U.S. Capitol on May 30, 2012.
    It’s pretty obvious that the IRS has been taking sides.

    He doesnt read them he cut and pastes these off of some guys blog. He has been exposed many times for posting articles that are actually contrary to the point he is trying to make. Basically debunking his own argument.

    Boontard is using a common Teanderthal technique- lie faster than the opposition can fact check. Didn't work too good for their last failed presidential candidate and it ain't gonna fly here either.

    Yep, hasn't gone away yet much to the dismay of the Obama Fan Boys.


    BTW, did you hear that Lois (I take The 5th) Lerner has 'retired'? Basically she was tossed under the bus along with her boss.

    How about this for being BLACKED OUT:

    IRS Documents Reveal Agency Flagged Groups for ‘Anti-Obama Rhetoric,’ Big Three Networks Refuse to Report.

    No wonder you members of the TDMA were skeptical about these IRS Scandals when all you do is get your news from Salon, HuffPo, KosFiles & Media Matters etc.

    Oh, almost forgot, your favorite 'news' source - MSNBC!

    The American Center for Law and Justice, a nonprofit legal institute that represents 33 of the groups appearing on the IRS list, said it appears to be 'the most powerful evidence yet of a coordinated effort' by the IRS to target Tea Party groups.
    Why not just fly a drone over these Tea Party groups and bomb the shit out of them?
    Isn't that the american way of targeting ?

    The IRS Targets Free Speech And Goes After Ben Carson To Try To Shut Him Up

    At an event in Birmingham, Ala. Monday night, former Johns Hopkins neurosurgeon Ben Carson revealed that he had received a visit from the Internal Revenue Service following his much-noted remarks at a
    National Prayer Breakfast earlier this year.

    “I had my first encounter with the IRS this year, unsurprisingly after the prayer breakfast,” Carson told an audience that at the annual Business Council of Alabama Chairman’s Dinner, according to a report from Cliff Sims of the Montgomery, Ala.-based Yellowhammer News.

    Carson’s February speech February made him a conservative darling for criticizing President Barack Obama’s 2010 health-care reform law, while Obama was sitting just a few feet away.

    Ben Carson had

    Just another example of Obama's Storm Troopers (IRS) targeting Conservatives.

    Welcome to the Police State.
