Don't agree with Obama ? Get ready for IRS probe
WND ^ | August 28, 2010 | Bob Unruh

Posted on 08/29/2010 8:03:10 PM PDT by RobinMasters

The Internal Revenue Service has delayed approval of tax-exempt status for a private organization and is reviewing its educational work, telling a lawyer for the foundation that it must be examined by Washington because its activities may "contradict the administration's public policies."

The allegation is contained in a federal lawsuit filed in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania by Z STREET, a Merion Station, Pa., group that educates on the statehood and status of Israel.

"Not only is it patently un-American but it is also a clear violation of the First Amendment for a government agency to penalize an organization because of its political position on Israel or anything else," said Z STREET president Lori Lowenthal Marcus, a former First Amendment lawyer.

"This situation is the same as if the government denied a driver's license to people because they were Republicans or Democrats. It goes against everything for which our country stands."

Contacted by WND, IRS officials declined to comment on the publicly filed lawsuit or even say whether they would respond.

This Regime takes the concept of Dirty Tricks to something of a fine art.

And the Red Media averts their gaze...

Clinton did that in his first year in office. I remember the NRA being one of the targets.

Good luck with that. They're still sound asleep, under the deep narcotic spell caused by the ultimate do-good act of having voting for an African-heritage person for president.

(Can't say African-American, because he wasn't born in USA.)

Obama won’t be happy until there is blood in the streets.

As as I can tell, they are sleeping right through it.

Of course it does; it's the Obama Regime.

If there is no violence, it will be because all of the dissidents have been rounded up.

These people will not stop, or be stopped, without force.

If the Dems lose big enough in November, be prepared for waves of things like this and worse. Expect all kinds of "executive orders" that will be designed to stifle dissent.

Winning in November will enhance the likelihood of civil disturbances, not lessen them. They will call out their goons.

Last week we saw that Barry’s Administration did not grant the State of New Jersey the expected 400 million dollars for schools over an alleged clerical error. Coincidentally the State has a Governor that is critical of the Administration and the Teachers Union. The Administration doles are harsh punishments to anyone not parroting Barry’s required talking points or acting independently.

IF the Dems get routed, the new Congress can effectively NEUTER this clown.

“People get the government they deserve” Joseph D’Maistre

Gang, we HAD a shot at cleaning these places out this last election and, to borrow a phrase from the klintoon White House, WE BLEW IT!!!

While I, like many of you, am saddened that McCain and Palin couldn’t keep the Marxist Obamessiah out of the White House, let’s try to keep things in some kind of rational perspective: ACORN elected a president and vice-president, NOT a monarch.

For years, I’ve been amazed at this idiotic quadrennial fascination with the beauty contest known as the (cue the trumpet fanfare) “PRESIDENTIAL RACE.” Our inattention and/or apparent desire for a king or a strong man dictatorship and/or the increasing numbers of un or ill-educated denizens of the U.S. who feel incapable of lifting themselves out of their own miserable lives has allowed our system to morph to the present quasi-monarchy from its original foundations as a representative REPUBLIC.

People, the most important thing we can remember about all of this is that the Founders constructed the system to put – AND KEEP — the KEYS TO THE FEDERAL CASH REGISTER IN CONGRESS and the current Gang of 535 could bring this out-of-control government spending and the steady usurpation of our freedoms to a screeching halt tomorrow at noon — IF THEY WANTED TO. Attila the Hun could occupy the White House and without the dough to hire the bureaucrats, buy the desks and computers, etc., etc. ad nauseum, Mr. Hun would be hamstrung. (See Article 1, Section 7 of the now largely moribund Constitution for details.)

But they DON’T — for a number of reasons: (And I cite the tax situation as but one example of the problem. Don’t get me started on the ENERGY and Algore’s gloBULL warming scam!)

1. They understand the need to vacuum the excess FRAUDS (Federal Reserve Accounting Unit Denominators) — there are no “dollars” circulating now! — out of circulation BEFORE the bulk of the dumb masses (say it really fast for maximum effect) catch on to the resultant inflation. If you question that statement, ask yourself why else would a criminal enterprise (the federal government) having the power to “create” “money” with the stroke of a pen NEED YOURS every April 15th?

2. The current Gang of 535 understands the need for the massive tax code (so-called because it is written in code by gnomes chained to posts in the cellars of K Street lobbying firms and understood only by their keepers) to reward their friends, punish their enemies and keep the rest of us under their thumbs with threats of draconian punishments should we run afoul of it. It is impossible to NOT run afoul of it.

3. While the dumb masses rant about the abusive practices of this top criminal enterprise’s subsidiary criminal enterprise (the IRS), members of the Gang can pose and posture for the cameras from time to time and declare that “something MUST be done to reign in the abuses of the IRS,” NOTHING WILL BE DONE until we clean house on Capitol Hill and get back to the HONEST, CONSTITUTIONAL MONEY called for at Art.1, Sect. 10. They’ve been playing a rigged game of 3 card-Monte with us for so long – and getting away with it – that, as Herman Cain’s book title declares – “They Think You’re STUPID.” And, hell, for MOST of the dumb masses, they’re right.

And THAT process starts in YOUR STATE and CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT by finding and supporting decent candidates — at ALL levels — who will go to YOUR state capitol and Malfunction Junction and do that house cleaning. Not marching on Washington (unless MILLIONS of pitchfork wielding folk crowd the Mall, the elites are amused by these things and the only folks who benefit from the finite patriot resources devoted to them are the airlines, hotels and restaurants in D.C.)...not sending “money” to the RNC (LOL!)...not writing poison pen letters to these current jerks...but THROWING OUT THE CURRENT JERKS you have identified as NOT having the country’s interests at heart and doing it as many times as necessary to get it done. And then watching the NEW GUYS like a hawk to make certain THEY don’t go bad from imbibing too much of that power Kool-Aid so popular in Disneyland on The Potomac.

A good news in the viability of this approach is that the controlled so-called national mainstream media have far less impact on these widely separated congressional races making it easier to get some good guys elected.

The bad news is that I can speak from personal experience about how the national PARTIES will survey all the contested congressional races and if they DO find a candidate they do not or think they cannot control running on their side, they’ll offer a “consultant” from headquarters to come in and ASSIST the campaign. In at least 4 cases with which I am familiar, the Republican National Committee TORPEDOED those campaigns so a good guy who might be more inclined to cling to the Constitution before toeing the party line didn’t make it to D.C.

And for you who, like a sad number of the dumb masses, THINK YOUR GUY IS OK, go to GRADEGOV at

http://www.gradegov.com/

for your guy’s voting record on taxes, spending or your personal hot button issues. You might be in for an unpleasant surprise.

Then head on over to http://goooh.com and get active in some HOUSE CLEANING in the next election!

I often get the strong sense that the American people have some sick and sophomoric yearning for a new ROYAL FAMILY or BENEVOLENT KING to make their lives what they themselves feel incapable of making them without some nanny-state sovereign. Throughout history, with few exceptions conspicuous because of their rarity, those systems nearly always become malignant and freedom founders and eventually fails. With the exception of America – the IDEA, not the place – most men who have walked the earth have lived as slaves.

As opportunities afford themselves (and this is one), I simply attempt to remind my fellow citizens of that history and what lies ahead if they continue in their ignorance of that history.

I could go on for volumes but you get the idea.

One final thought: With the exception of the guys who CLEARLY pass muster at GRADEGOV, RE-ELECT NOBODY!!!!!

If ALL the candidates in YOUR district SUCK OUT LOUD, consider supporting these folks.

TWO solid congressional candidates who warrant your consideration and support. Even if you live elsewhere, ALL these folks are involved with legislation that impacts YOUR LIFE. If you doubt that, do the names Pelosi, Reid, Frank, Schumer, etc. ring any bells?

Visit their sites and if you agree that they would be good folks to have in D.C., sent a contribution and spread the word to others who might do the same.

We’ve left things to the career politicians for too long. If things continue as they are, there will be NOWHERE TO HIDE!

"Yet another wake up call to America's Jewish Community."

Sadly, I don't think being stripped naked and loaded into cattle cars would wake up many American Jews.

And I say that's sad not only out of respect for the role Jews have played in Bible history, but the fact that I generally really like Jews for their spirit and intelligence.

Well, Lincoln is his idol, remember? This jackwagon probably lusts for CWII so that he can put the South - and all conservatives - down forever. Then he gets his utopia.
