nothing to see here...they do the same thing to the ‘occupado wall street’ crowd....and the new Black Panthers.....
......NOT
Using the IRS against “enemies” is a standard Democrat tactic. Hillary Clinton used it almost on a monthly basis.
Has sorta a Chiccahhhhgo, Kenyan odor methinks.
Chicago, Kenyan, and Muzzie, mebbie?
Just reeeks of Acorns, too.
There was a time when local governments in states hostile to blacks demanded membership rosters for their local NAACP chapters. The Supremes put a stop to that for the same reason that this should be stopped. “List your volunteers” so we can go after them.
So once they have the donor lists, they send letters to the entire list with all sorts of intrusive and threatening questions. How many people will stop giving after a letter from the IRS. Mission accomplished.
I think the request for information should be complied with.
Our local Tez Party group in Illinois, for example has participants including Richard Durbin, Gov. Patrick Quinn, Rahm Emmanuel and of their associates. I understand that we can generate the money order receipts to prove it!
They do?
The article says “tea party groups” are getting the letters - not individuals.
Are you saying individuals are getting these letters too?
Tez = Tea
If Tez existed, it would be Teaberry flavored Pez
Wow..
Did MEDIA MATTERS, or MoveOn.Borg get these letters, too?
Read what I said again. That is my forecast. Once they get the donor lists they will use them to intimidate individual givers. What better way to shut off the income stream than to send letters to the donors? Alternatively, they can use the lists for targeted correspondence audits.
That’s how I look at it.
This is a job for tax lawyers and lawsuits.
The first thing everyone should learn is that the IRS regulations are so vast and convoluted that absolutely no one (including the IRS) can abide by them 100%. That means that we all are criminals since we all break IRS laws.
With that said, at any time, any place and anywhere, the IRS (a real Gestapo) can ruin you financially and/or put you in jail at their whim.
Now, Obama has his “civilian army” activated and fully operational upon his call. The only ones exempt are the 98% of blacks who voted for him.
“Get whitey”...you bet!
This is a job for tax lawyers and lawsuits."

List of Letters:

3. IRS Letter demanding volunteer lists
4. IRS Letter specifically targeting the Tea Party as an organization of interest
5. IRS Letter demanding more copies, names and activities-multiple
6. IRS Letter demanding printed out copies of all Facebook Wall posts
7. IRS Letter demanding resumes from each member

Intimidation purposes? Nah. /s
Pfl
When it comes to the IRS, the fact that they sent out a letter, if there’s no cause, is a reason to challenge it.
If you can head off any reason for them to send out letters, that’s a positive thing in itself.
Yes, of course they are.
Oh, if they would go after ACORN with such zeal. Or CAIR. Or any number of Leftie front groups.
