The SA one does, to me. Votes are one thing. Demoralization is going on in the other corner.

Obama is a terrorist and as president he has many tools for terrorizing the America he hates so much.

Just ask his victims.

Everything makes sense where conservatives of all stripes are exposed as such ny this efin POS regime.
The criminal in the White Hut is the enemy.

Can those people singled out for persecution sue the IRS? Sue Obama? What are he legalities here? Even a regular company audit where nothing is found can run into the thousands of dollars.

Yes, we pretty well knew this to be the case though now the proof is very clear. It was political profiling of their (Obama and his helpers like Schumer writing letters to the IRS) political opponents. Revenge with the arm of the Internal Revenue Service. All People who were involved need to go to prison.

I want to know how this culture of intimidation formed and the steps to be taken to prevent it from recurring.

Something like a Sarbanes Oxley act on government intimidation. Make them prove by audit that they comply with this new regulation.

Instead the GAO parties lavishly in Las Vegas with nothing to show for it.

I recall a report of an EPA thug. His boast to copy the Romans.
Walk into town and pick one or two for execution. The rest will be silent and meek for a few years.
That’s what the EPA did, they targeted one or two for extreme abuse as a lesson and example to others.

Such is the US government under 0bama.

Mayvbe if a few of these jackboots get themselves shot they will start thinking twice about barging in the front door with guns drawn.

The “historical” lesson learned from the 2012 “elections” is that you can’t beat the worst president this country has ever seen when you and your supporters have got giant targets painted on their back and the sitting POTUS turns all of the government agencies loose to harass, intimidate and threaten you. A lesson every politician in Chicago knows quite well.

I just recently bought a Gibson for this reason. I always wanted a Martin but I wouldn’t get one now if it made me sound like Eric Clapton.

then there is this.....
KNOXVILLE — The FBI and IRS locked down Pilot Flying J headquarters in West Knoxville today while executing a search warrant.

FBI Supervisory Special Agent Marshall Stone said that FBI and IRS agents arrived at the corporate headquarters on Lonas Road this afternoon as part of a “ongoing investigation.” Stone declined to provide specifics of the raid.

The company is owned by the Haslem family, brother of Governor Bill Haslem of Tennessee who nixed the state exchange

With only one or two exceptions FReepers connected the dots just fine.

And if any of you bible-clinging, gun-loving hicks want to start any funny business, well, you know we have a zillion hollow point bullets and thousands of homeland security thugs ready to stop you.

It’s going to take a military coup to remove these communists
from power.

I bought my Les Paul Custom thanks to them targeting Gibson.

I had always wanted to replace one that was stolen, but couldn't justify spending the money until GuvCo went after them.

I'm sure the Richlite fret board is wonderful and I applaud Gibson's "show must go on" spirit for taking that solution after GuvCo took their property, but the ebony plays as originally intended and protests much better.

Support America and protest obama and the GuvCo Beast: Buy and Play Gibson Guitars!
