There you go again...

It was a 20 year IRS career civil service employee (as is NOT a political appointee), who just happened to be a card carrying Republican, that initiated the program that started to check political 504c organizations, BOTH Conservative and Liberal. It had nothing to do with politics, it was just something that someone thought needed to be done. And in the end NOT a single Conservative organization was denied their tax-exempt status, something which couldn't be said for several Liberal organizations that were denied. There should be an investigation into why to life-long Republican ended up ONLY denying tax-exempt status to Liberal groups, eh?

Audit the IRS!

http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/csimpson/140114

When certain unusual items pop up in the news that appear to point to a Democrat craftsman or underlying Big Government agenda, we're told that the events are merely isolated anomalies or coincidences that imply no such intentional design.

. . .

The Democrat Media Complex reports that the coincidences prove nothing more than the existence of "rogue" field offices, "dysfunctional" employees, overzealous volunteers – or a biased misinterpretation, cherry-picking, or "obsession" by political opponents to turn events into "phony scandals." Usually the Complex manages to deflect criticism of the events into criticism of the skeptics, whose inquiring minds earn the label of "paranoid," "obstructionist," "anarchist," or "conspiracy theorist."

Examples are plenty:
•We're assured that instances of voting fraud are "extremely rare."


•Government spying on reporters covering certain stories just "got a little out of whack."


•The fact that unions received favored treatment in the GM bailout is incidental. There is "little or no documentation" to prove that Republican-leaning dealerships were targeted for closure.


•Questioning whether IRS audits targeted individuals for political reasons is "crazy talk." Certain non-profit applications were not "intentionally singled out" by the IRS. Darrell Issa's investigation into illegal communications between the IRS and FEC is politically-motivated "fishing for more IRS scandals."


•Security flaws in the Obamacare rollout are "minor details." As the ACA begins to affect a "wildly inflated" number of small businesses, it's the "losers who will get most of the attention," and the law simply needs "tweaking." Illegal activities of Obamacare navigators, caught on tape, were "anomalies," and we should "stop freaking out about" navigators who could "possibly" be felons.


•"Improper conduct" in calculating unemployment data just before the 2012 election was not "widespread." And it was "coincidental" and "without regard to politics" that thousands of controversial rules were not issued until after the same election.
