It appears to me that the Feds have declared war on Real Americans!

Why does that not surprise me?

Exactly what business is it of the government as to who belongs to the American Legion or any other private organization? I don’t get this at all. Does the Obama administration want to know where all the veterans are on the day they plan on rounding us all up, or something?

I think the IRS boys and girls are still made about what the American Legions boys did to their ancestors in Germany during WWII.

rename to the “Illegal Alien American Legion” and they’ll never be asked for ID/registration ever again.

One of the many reasons to abolish the IRS.

Perhaps the problem is, IF they are getting a tax break, is it a new tax break? If it’s the same tax break they’ve enjoyed, why NEW regulations and NEW penalties?

Obama is why

Per the article - apparently portions of the IRS ‘audit manual’ attempt to amend statutes passed by Congress and approved by the president.

These are not new regulations or new penalties. Here is a link to the 2005 version of the same section of the IRS manual, which reflects the same record-keeping requirements (re: dates of service, etc.) and penalties of the current version. This is not a new requirement, and it's a sensible one - if you want your organization to benefit from tax breaks for veterans' groups, you should be able to show that you are a veterans' group.

Obama and Holder are publicly speaking about their ‘plan of the week’ that are just more smokescreen distractions to divert attention away from the incompetent manner Obama has handled his day job.

The best indicator of a PHONY ADMINISTRATION is the number of its REAL SCANDALS.

Commie Tyrant Obama’s current talking points are thus smokescreen distractions for the products of Obama’s first 4 years in office:
* Refusal to close US Southern Border to Mexican illegal alien invaders
* No known un-forged records of Place of Birth
* No known un-forged records of University grades
* Benghazi Massacre
* Dereliction of Duty as CIC during Benghazi Massacre
* Cover up of Benghazi Massacre
* Destruction of Seal Team Six
* Cover up of Fast and Furious murder of US Border Agent by Exec. Order
* IRS-Obama’care” Commune Death Grip on Wealth and Health
* NSA-Gestapo Death Grip on all citizen’s communications
* Use of Courts against News Media
* Use of Supreme Court to install Un-Constitutional Obama’care’ Tax
* Destruction of the US Coal Industry
* Refusal to permit XL Pipeline construction
* Trillion Dollar a year Federal Overspending
* Monthly violations of the US Constitution by Obama
* Use of Exec. Orders to bypass Congress.

REPLACE sniveling coward Speaker Boehner with a FIGHTER!

It is time to IMPEACH Tyrant B. Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro.
_______________________

Tyrant B. Hussein Obama, (aka Barry Soetoro), continues his unopposed efforts to expand Totalitarian Obamanation in Liberty-based America.

Where are the Republican opponents of Tyrant Obama?

Why have the Articles of Impeachment for Tyrant Obama not been issued by US House Speaker Boehner, or Pro-Welfare Republicans Cantor or Ryan?

Have House and Senate Pro-Welfare Republicans formed a cave-in pact with Pro-Welfare Democrats to protect Tyrant Obama?

The main thing that Speaker Boehner is afraid of is being blamed for doing his job.

Speaker Boehner’s job now is to shut down the NON-ESSENTIAL parts of the US Federal Government until Obama’care’ is ABOLISHED, however long that takes.

This has been the practice for awhile and most(?) states require some kind of record while drinking at bar AND require members to have cards in their possession and all guests to be signed in by a MEMBER that is on site, not working.

Maybe DOJ can put a stop to having to have a card to drink at VFW or AL, much like not needing a card to vote.

The problem is that this isn’t what the IRS, or taxes, are for.
