Weekly Standard ^

NBC's Lisa Myers reported this morning that the IRS deliberately chose not to reveal that it had wrongly targeted conservative groups until after the 2012 presidential election:

What did Obama know, and when did he know it?

[Trapped Behind Enemy Lines]

Now it is official: the 2012 presidential election was in fact STOLEN. Period. End of discussion.

[Cyber Liberty]

It’s a bit of a “Duh!” don’t you think?

[bunkerhill7]

Outgoing head of IRS said he believed it wasn`t illegal for IRS to target individuals, orgainizations, etc.

A rigged election means that the present government is illegitimate and without authority beyond what it can impose by threat of the use of force.

IE, they are simply thugs in power.

[AngelesCrestHighway]

Of course!...They held back everything HOPING the low information voter would punch his tickey anyway. Low and behold, they did! That’s why Obama cried...He just couldn’t believe he got away with it for another four years of f’ing America!

Here's the link to the IG report:

IRS Inspector General Report on Tax-Exempt Scrutiny of Political Organizations

This is from the report:

Figure 3: Criteria for Potential Political Cases (June 2011)

• “Tea Party,” “Patriots” or “9/12 Project” is referenced in the case file
• Issues include government spending, government debt or taxes
• Education of the public by advocacy/lobbying to “make America a better place to live”
• Statement in the case file criticize how the country is being run

In the liberal ideologue mindset, the ends justify the means.

To Bill Ayers, one of Obama’s mentors and supporters, that potentially could include murdering 25,000,000 Americans.

"A rigged election means that the present government is illegitimate and without authority beyond what it can impose by threat of the use of force."

What difference at this point does it make?

[Trapped Behind Enemy Lines]

I agree. As long as the drones get their freebies, they don’t care what Obama does. Same was true in Venezuela under Chavez.

[Noamie]

Whoops

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Sounds like Lisa is up from her nap.

Is Sing Sing still open? I realize Lompoc and Leavenworth have openings for corrupt politicos,, but Hey, how about Gitmo? It’s still oen, what better place to send all the libs who screw us regularly.
