It’s one of many possible grounds for impeachment: abusing the IRS (one of the counts prepared against Nixon), Reportergate, the NSA scandal, Fast and Furious, and perhaps more important, running arms to known terrorists.
But nobody will press any of these issues.

“As prominent politicians publicly urged the IRS to take action on tax-exempt groups engaged in legal campaign intervention activities, the IRS treated tea party applications differently,” the staff report concludes. “Applications filed by tea party groups were identified and grouped due to media attention surrounding the existence of the tea party in general.” That finding contradicts Democrats on Capitol Hill, who argue that some liberal groups also were given special scrutiny, thus showing there was neither a witch hunt for conservatives nor political pressure from the White House.
Looks like democrats were lying for their friends in the IRS...

However, they did it anyway. Funny how criminal activity flourishes when there are no consequences. Lots of good sturdy lightpoles and rope needed...
