President Barack Obama said Monday those responsible for any improper scrutiny of conservative groups' tax status would be held "fully accountable," hours before it emerged that the current and former heads of the Internal Revenue Service were informed last May that tea-party groups had been targeted. ...
Separately, investigators told congressional staffers Monday that Mr. Miller's predecessor, Commissioner Douglas Shulman, who was appointed by President George W. Bush in 2008, was informed of the problems in May 2012, according to an aide. But Republicans say Mr. Shulman—who had previously testified that there was no IRS targeting—never told them of what he subsequently learned. Mr. Shulman couldn't be reached for comment Monday. ...

Obama using the IRS to target conservative groups during the election:
1.Invalidates the 2012 election
2. Is illegal and unconstitutional
3.is one of many abuses of power
Below is what McConnel says:

On Monday, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) fired back on assertions by the IRS that its efforts to target conservative groups were relegated to low-level employees. “Of course not,” he told Breitbart News. McConnell noted that he had raised the issue of IRS targeting of conservatives in 2012, and further noted that the Washington Post “dismissed it as a bunch of red herrings.”
The scandal, McConnell said, extends up the chain. “The Obama effort to shut up opponents isn’t limited to the IRS,” he stated. “It applies to the FCC [Federal Communications Commission], SEC [Securities and Exchange Commission], FEC [Federal Elections Commission], HHS [Department of Health and Human Services] …. And you remember, the Obama campaign last year published a list of eight businessmen who it believed were enemies.”
McConnell further noted reports that the Department of Health and Human Services had been contacting businesses “skeptical about the implementation of Obamacare and asking them to contribute money to sell the program to the American people. That’s absolutely improper if not illegal. This administration will stop at nothing to get its way. It will do anything it can to silence its critics.”
McConnell said would not trust any Democrat-led investigation into the IRS scandal. He added with regard to a House investigation of the IRS’ activities, “I’
Impeach Obama
Abolish the IRS
But don’t forget that they are trying to sneak pass an Amnesty destroying bill through Congress( call Congress)
Impeach Obama. I notice Obamas campaign had no trouble at all instantly becoming a new tax exempt entity immediately after the campaign.
“Organizing for Action (OFA) is a nonprofit social welfare organization and community organizing project in the United States, heavily affiliated with the Democratic Party. It is the successor of U.S. president Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign and of Organizing for America, which itself succeeded Obama’s 2008 campaign.
Founded after President Obama’s re-election, the group seeks to mobilize supporters in favor of Obama’s legislative priorities. OFA is registered as a 501(c)(4) organization, which allows it to advocate for legislation but prohibits it from specifically supporting political candidates.”
Repeal the 16th amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.
At the same time repeal the 17th amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.
And finally, if we could, exhume the body of Woody Wilson and set his remains on fire then jettison his ashes off the planet while having every active member of the armed forces drop trow and moon that SOB until his launch vehicle is out of sight.
A couple of slices off the old pyramid would be appropriate.
“But don’t forget that they are trying to sneak pass an Amnesty destroying bill through Congress( call Congress)”
All new legislation from Obama must immediately be stopped. NO matter what it is. All business must cease. A resolution honoring apple pie, baseball, NOTHING!
Nothing must pass until Obamas use of government to attack enemies is utterly dissected and the guilty arrested. This goes right to the top.
He is 10 times worse than Nixon.
“Repeal the 16th amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.
At the same time repeal the 17th amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.”
Yes. The American people would love this :
1.abolish the IRS
2. repeal the 16th( abolishes the IRS)
3. replace income tax with tax on China imports
4. And tell them we’ll replace the “sorely” needed lost revenue fpr fake global warming studies tax with a tax on China imports .
I’m sure the Obamanation was well aware of the IRS targeting and most likely is the one who ordered it. As Rush pointed out, the IRS had to be rehabilitated to maximize its acceptance in its upcoming major role as an implementer and enforcer of Obamanoncare; ergo, the mock criticism coming from the bogus POTUS.
Benedict Arnold is a patriot and hero when compared to nobama.
Abolish the IRS
But don’t forget that they are trying to sneak pass an Amnesty destroying bill through Congress( call Congress)
Imprison Obama and all the IRS workers who are criminals .These actions by the IRS were illegal unconstitutional
Neither passed...held together by thugs and corrupt judges.
“President Barack Obama said Monday those responsible for any improper scrutiny of conservative groups’ tax status would be held “fully accountable,” hours before it emerged that the current and former heads of the Internal Revenue Service were informed last May that tea-party groups had been targeted.”
HA!!!
“Inspector General Will Investigate Obama Admin for Discussing Koch Tax Status”
OCTOBER 10, 2010
“The inspector general for tax administration at the Treasury Department will investigate the allegation that an Obama administration official may have improperly accessed and discussed private taxpayer information.
Inspector General Will Investigate Obama Admin for Discussing Koch Tax Status
At an August 27 press briefing, a senior administration official, who appears to have been Austan Goolsbee, discussed the tax status of Koch Industries—a private company that has come under fire from top Democrats, including President Obama himself, for funding conservative and libertarian political causes.”
Since the results of the last election, which was a surprise to me and many others, I now believe that they used the IRS to access information...PERSONAL information...that led to their “strategy” for a winning outcome.
IOW, they cheated...big time...and broke the law every which way but Sunday.
What have the Republicans done about it over the last three years?
