During Tuesday's Senate hearings into the widening IRS scandal, Senator Ron Wyden (OR-D) suggested that the conservative groups, targeted for paralyzing IRS harassment and leaks to the left-wing media, had it coming.
(snip)
(from John Harwood) Sen Wyden: If political groups don't want hassles from government, they shouldn't go to government asking for tax-exempt status.

If you didn’t want to be stood up against a wall with a blindfold over your eyes, why did you run for office as a Democrat?

I’m pretty ignorant of this subject. Exactly what advantage is there to an organization to get C4 status?
If you don’t get C4, if you get $1,000,000 in donations and spend it all on ads promoting a political position are do you have to pay taxes on a $million? or can you deduct the $million cost of the ads?

I’d agree with him IF the hassles were not targeted at conservatives. If everyone who applied got the same level of hassle, OK, I accept that. Especially when you see some of the shady non-profits out there. But, of course, Wyden ignores the most important part of the story — that the IRS gave conservatives extra hassle.

My crystal ball sees a mob of irate citizens storming DC Press headquarters, dragging out media sycophants and tarring and feathering them.

Pull the plug on the income tax, the IRS, and the whole 501c charade. That’s the only way to clean up this immoral, unconstitutional mess.

C3 doners get a deduction. C4 doners don’t. I just learned that.

They pulled a coup, no less than if they’d taken out the rightful winner of the election and deposed him at gunpoint.
Those responsible need to be hanged publically.
