Breaking: Lois Lerner Sued Christian Coalition In Largest FEC Action in History – Then Was Promoted
Gateway Pundit ^ | 5/22/13

Posted on 05/22/2013 4:17:01 PM PDT by hope

Under the direction of Lois Lerner, the Federal Election Commission sued the Christian Coalition in the 1990s. She harassed the Christian Coalition for three election cycles. She lost her case. Lerner even asked one conservative during the case if Pat Robertson prayed over him. (Sound familiar?)

These actions landed her at the IRS where she used the same tactics against conservatives and Christians – only on a much larger scale. 500 conservative and Christian groups were illegally targeted by the Obama IRS during her tenure. For twenty-seven months the Obama IRS refused to approve any Tea Party applications for tax-exempt status. At the same time the Obama IRS approved dozens of progressive applications.

Yep. There was too much support for the Clintons from too many constituents and politicians in both political parties back then.

Another - ahem - totalitarian woman is heading Obamacare at the IRS. Not Lerner. I know it gets confusing.

That’s right...I have her face but not her name...rather gruff looking woman...glasses.

Here she is...ta dum!!!

‘Sarah Hall Ingram’,.... had been serving as commissioner of the office responsible for tax-exempt organizations from 2009 to 2012 — the division included the group that targeted Tea Partiers.

..... and has since left to serve as director of the IRS’ Affordable Care Act division...I.E. ‘Obamacare’.

....That unit is responsible for enforcing parts of the health care law, including the fines associated with the so-called individual mandate — the requirement to buy health insurance.

I had trouble believing she’s a woman, from the picture.

But since there’s (at least) two high-level women involved in the tea party targeting, one of which is now heading up the Obamacare office at the IRS, it can get confusing.

They look nothing alike, so once that’s established, it gets easier.

Tom Marr on Levin’s show this evening, said Mark will talk about Lois Lerner’s history when he comes back, on the next show.

Imagine! She persecutes Christian organizations from her post at the Federal Elections Commission, then is esconced at the IRS and winds up in a scandal of persecuting conservative groups of all stripes.

And this Sarah Hall Ingram did so well against tea party groups so they couldn’t successfully fight Obamacare through the election process, she’s now rewarded with heading up IRS Obamacare implementation.

See a PATTERN here??

The image of her moustache alone is enough to make one upchuck. Are we even sure she’s a female?

It's funny, these whole bunch of Wymen in Pantsuits, bad Dorothy Hamel Haircuts, and Comfortable Shoes were trying to take away our God given voice, but when asked under an oath to speak the truth refuse....

Maybe a new definition of cowardliness here...

And if Rush Limbaugh keeps trying to convince his audience not to be passionate about this, just turn the radio off.

This has been on my mind for a while.

I don't know if Maha-Rushie is trying to play a reverse Herb Brooks here and plant a negative seed instead of a positive one to get us fired up...

Their was a time in America, when we have a unified sense of right and wrong, ( aka the Nixon era ) when things were so obvious, you had to say it was time to go. Not now. Maybe this is the source of his angst.

I never would have dreamed that my country would become so completely lawless. If it weren't so, why is this government stockpiling enough weapons to fight a war with it's people for years? And, it seems we only have a handful of representatives who care enough to fight it.

Thankfully, as a believer I know the end and these people do not far well at all.

Good morning.

Thankfully, as a believer I know the end and these people do not far[e] well at all.

Plus, they won't see it coming, and when the end gets here, they will beg for His mercy.

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

Before the 24/7 news cycle and proliferation of conservative news websites, Rush used to be cutting edge.....I don’t tune in often any longer, but when I do, he’s discussing two to three day old news and his commentary is no longer unique.....For people who do not follow news throughout the day, he might still be relevant, but to those who do, he’s really not anymore.
*****************************************************************
Fortunenately for the country, millions (probably more millions than when the extremely knowledgeable YOU listened) still listen. Unlike YOU, most Americans are not in a position to be able to follow the news throughout the day so he serves those people by distilling and conveying the essense of the news.

And of folks who are able to keep up with the news, MILLIONS do so via the mainstream “state-controlled” media where everything is filtered through progressive lenses and is little more than pure propaganda. Rush serves those folks also by conveying news and views they are not getting elsewhere.

Rush Limbaugh’s analysis helps folk understand better what’s going on with progressives and understand the “why” of what progressives are doing (Limbaugh Theorem anyone?). Of course since you no longer listen to Rush, you have no idea of what the Limbaugh Theorem is, do you?
