Michelle Malkin’s Blog states that there is to be a TEA Party Protest at your nearest IRS Office Tomorrow, May 21 at Noon.

Since Austin, TEXAS is the nearest IRS Office to my far distant, weather-beaten, Gadsden Flagpole, I will be at my local Post office/ Federal Court Building at Noon tomorrow, with my weather-beaten Gadsden Flag on the handle of a pitchfork, with the fork broken off, of course.

If arrested for my Domestic Terrorism Organization sign and/or lack of a protest permit, I will tell them that I will volunteer only the following: 1.) I am a member of the Small Government Party, 2.) my name, and 3.) the rest is none of their damn business.

Now where did I store my felt, Tri-Cornered Hat that I bought in 1976 - - - ?

I also have to figure out how to come up with fewer words for my protest sign: “OBAMA’S IRS = DOMESTIC TERRORIST AGENCY AGAINST MIDDLE CLASS.”

If I only had not thrown away those buckled shoes - - - .

In Austin we should carry signs: ‘STACK the deck much do we, IRS??’ and watch the sparks fly.

It’s obvious to me that if the Obama admin considers groups that teach Constitutionalism as enemies,

that the administration is an enemy of the Constitution.

“She’s a seasoned government employee,” Hackney told TPM.

Indeed. Googling for "nixon" plus "limited hangout" will tell you how much she's learned.

“Both Aprill and Streckfus said they had asked Roady directly about the issue. Roady denied any arrangement.

“I know that some people in the audience thought it was set up, but I talked to Celia [Roady],” Aprill said. “It was not a set up. And I believe Celia. I’ve known Celia for years.” “

Oh what a tangled web you weave...

So in addition to looking like a doofus from a Saturday Night Live skit, this woman has now lost two friends she has worked with “for years”.

The only hope for Roady will be to repentof her lies and ask forgiveness from Aprill and Streckfus ... and from God ... and then change her name to Toady.

UH OH.

Lawyer confirms she asked planted question that broke open IRS scandal

“On May 9, I received a call from Lois Lerner, who told me that she wanted to address an issue after her prepared remarks … and asked if I would pose a question to her after her remarks. I agreed to do so.…We had no discussion thereafter on the topic of the question, nor had we spoken about any of this before I received her call. She did not tell me, and I did not know, how she would answer the question.”

Good. Thanks! Maybe the “S” in Obama should be “$.”

In fact every sign or poster should reference Joe Stack.

Get under their skin.

Trust no one.
This is an odd event and an interesting article.
There may have been a set up targeted at Lois Lerner. If she was asked the question and avoided giving a forthcoming answer, she might have the tail pinned on her. As it is, it appears she told the truth and the chips are falling where they may.
We need a Special Committee and Sworn Testimony.

If you believe this question was planted as has been reported, I’d have to think this is someone looking for a plea deal. If you were participating in this shakedown and you knew it was going to blow, you’d want to get out first I’d think.

The question was asked and answered because the IRS IG report was coming out the next week. It had been being “worked on” for over a year. The two scumbags involved in the question ploy are friends.

““It’s not unlike a reporter’s relationship with government officials, which is, they respect that government officials don’t want to be put in embarrassing positions, and so they’re highly unlikely to ask any kind of embarrassing questions,” Hackney said. “So it’s a total dance that these guys place with the government, the government plays with them. And everybody knows the rules of the game, generally.””

This only applies to Press reluctance to embarrass Democrat politicians.

Lerner was appointed as head of the IRS Exempt Organizations Division during the Bush administration, in 2006. I’m a little confused about this... she may have felt that getting a friend to ask a question about these reviews for tax exempt status was the only way that she could expose the whole thing... but presumably she was in charge... and a Bush appointee, Doug Shulman, was head of the IRS until last November. All of this nonsense occurred over a year ago. So why did she and her boss allow this? Did the Obama admin have something on them? I think we have yet to witness the other shoe dropping... Shulman is going to testify this week, and I think there is going to be quite a tale to tell.
