The IRS has admitted to harassing conservative groups seeking tax exempt status, singling out for extra special scrutiny organizations which featured “patriot” or “tea party” designations in their name. We now know that a number of these groups were forced to withdraw their applications, being unable or unwilling to continue what in some cases had become a 3 year battle with the corrupt federal agency.
But few in the media have bothered to ask who directed the IRS to engage in this criminal behavior. It has been reported that Senators Chuck Schumer and Al Franken addressed a letter to IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman in early 2012, “…demanding the IRS target conservative groups or face legislation forcing them to do so.” (1)
Yet Democrat demands that the IRS investigate conservative organizations were nothing new. Senators Dick Durbin and Max Baucus offered their own “suggestions” that the Service...

Text from Obama's Blackberry?
Email on an Obama secret email account like EPA was using?
Thank you. I will try to catch some of it.

These revelations make it all but impossible for the IRS to continue this harassment, at least in the near future.
Time for all Tea Party supporters with means to open the wallets and fire negative ads with ALL BARRELS at all RINOS and Dems up for re-election in 2014.
“do these IRS people put anything in writing? They get a list of targeting criteria to follow, with no signature?”
It’s the Chicago way, you never write down anything illegal (or talk about it on the phone, or through email). If we want to catch these guys red-handed, we’ll need to do it the old fashioned way, with informants and people wearing wires.
Doesn't work that way. Rush was pointing out yesterday that a major bundler for Pubbie money can't get *anything* from the usual donors. They are all scared sh*tless of the IRS. Who seriously thinks the Pubbies have the guts to actually go to war over this? I don't.
Rush also pointed out, which sounds logical to me, that was the purpose of the initial "apology" by the IRS: to strike fear in the right and inhibit the raising of money. Which is working.
However, there is at least the possibility that the Republicans will push hard enough for this scandal to actually hurt Obama & the Dems. Not probable IMO based on past experience with the eunuch party.
I am so sick of a party full of people that have to wear *Depends* in case a Democrat yells at them, or the MSM says something that isn't nice.
My mom had a cure for that, when my siblings and I were kids. If no one would 'fess up for a crime, she'd just punish all of us together.
Who has the ability, the authority to arrest them? Justice? The local PD?
Perhaps this is simply the way things are going to be from now on, now that Alinskyites have infiltrated and taken over the entire federal bureaucracy with no controlling legal authority.
The Alinsky feral government cancer has metastasized.
These senators need to be going to prison.
We need a miracle.
