He nailed it. Especially his line about how when you're sitting on the other side of the IRS, an apology about shoddy performance on IRS compliance somehow doesn't cut it, yet we're supposed to be accepting of this as past "mistakes"?

As if this wasn't all done with a high level of Democrats' political intentionality?

Remember...as Rush said...Barack's half brother, a Kenyan, got his non-profit status to sail thru in less than a month...whereas it took over 3 years AVERAGE for these tea party types of groups to be approved...

And with outrageous questions demanded to boot.

The American people need to toss ALL these Democrats OUT of the admin...as they are simply stonewalling.

I've said it in other threads. If you want to start a conservative 501c(4), name it something that sounds liberal, and salt your mission description with stuff about "community organizing for political action", "civil rights", "education voters in liberal and progressive issues" (conservative stuff is far more "liberal" and "progressive" than the groups normally associated with those words)

You'll get approved in two weeks. Then, if they ever happen to notice your group's conservative, they can't really complain because the dictionary definition of all that stuff is perfectly compatible with conservatism. They also can't complain so long as you were upfront about your intended degree of political activity because to do so is to admit the rules vary with political persuasion.

Of course, eventually they'll get wise to it, but even then since they can't tell which groups are which, they're FORCED to treat everyone the same; either abuse liberals or rubber stamp conservatives, so it's still a good outcome even at that point.
