[Tea Party folks partisan comments] would not explain why the IRS approved blatantly noxious BOLO criteria including "Statements in the case file that are critical of how the country is being run."

No but it would shift from comparing this to Watergate to the real comparison: FDR's Great Sedition Trial of 1944.

As Ms Peggy Noonan pointed out Watergate was elites using the machinery of government to spy on elites. What's happening today is the Obama Adminstration using the machinery of government government to go after "little people." E.g., using the Obama/Holder Department of Just Us and Our People.

Nixon's Articles of Impeachment listed that Nixon was being charged with endeavoring to use the IRS and another agecny; in some cases the Articles of Impeachment did say that he used a third agency. They knew the difference.

I think that Ms Peggy Noonan wrote recently: [Watergate] was elites using the machinery of government to spy on elites . . . The dreadful thing about this scandal, what makes it ominous, is that this is the elites versus regular citizens. It’s the mighty versus normal people. It’s the all-powerful directors of the administrative state training their eyes and moving on uppity and relatively undefended Americans.

Thus it ain't Watergate it is FDR's Great Sedition Trial of 1944.

The sedition was just a ruse to destroy anti-FDR and anti-communist "bloggers".

Once the little people of the opposition were disposed of the next targets would be the elite Republicans like Senator Taft and the publisher of the Chicago Tribune. Some believed.

I have oft-posted: "I like to mention A Mockery of Justice The Great Sedition Trial of 1944 often.. because I see Great "Sedition" Trials of 201x - 201x" a coming." Little did I know that it was happening all those years.
