Another good article for our Low Info Kos Moles.

IRS higher-ups requested info on conservative groups, letters show

I was trying to make sense of "Morris owed apology."

Morris? Morris?

The cat that used to appear in cat food commercials?

But he's deceased...and why would he be owed an apology?

Your comment made it click. Dick Morris. Of course. The reformed Clintonista pundit who used to be on TV every day. The one who predicted that the 2008 election would be Hillary vs. Condi.

Is he still around?

Perhaps, but okie01 has a Thesaurus ;-)

If your point is that this shows the lengths that the regime will go to to assure election outcomes.

Does this make it more likely that direct voter fraud was involved in the re-election of the regime?

You bettcha!

Partisan political groups do not qualify for that status

I think maybe you have a slightly skewed idea of what these groups can and can not do. They can not support or oppose candidates directly; however, they can support or oppose issues ESPECIALLY contentious political issues.

Yes, I’m in favor of limiting the political activities of 501(c)(3) and (c)(4) organizations

WHY? That is what the leftists want. That is why the leftists still whine about the Supreme Court decision on Citizen's United. That is why the leftists attempted to and successfully silenced many conservative groups using the IRS and many other agencies.

Keeping alive the free marketplace of ideas is what this is all about. The left wants to censor the people.

"Or Nate Silver could have just looked at the polls, averaged them, and seen the Obama was likely going to win"

...or someone just sent him an advance copy of the election results.
