Former Internal Revenue Service commissioner Douglas H. Shulman, a frequent White House guest during the period when the IRS was targeting conservative nonprofits, is married to the senior program advisor for Public Campaign, an “organization dedicated to sweeping campaign reform that aims to dramatically reduce the role of big special interest money in American politics.”

It’s a safe bet that “Public Campaign” got their tax exemption in record time.

Get this:

They are ALL “consultants” or “advisers” or getting a pension or getting “royalties” or whatever.

And you think that when gas goes to $14.00 a gallon it will hurt them?

Not a chance.

They make “the laws” which are “supreme”.

You ain’t got a snowballs chance in hell.

Why is it that the Dems never appoint anyone who turns out to be conservative, but the GOP regularly appoints libs.

I think this is the guy.

He needs to be brought in and asked specifically with whom he met each time he visited the WH and what was their conversation.

He needs to be asked if HE EVER discussed targeting Tea Party or other conservative groups with Obama. The if he says that he never did, then ask him why he didn’t.

Ask him when did he know that the IRS was targeting these groups. If he said he didn’t know, then ask him who then authorized over 90 agents to target them.

When I get a letter from the IRS, even if it’s for something informational, I cringe.

Like layers of an onion...we've just begun to peel them away. I believe this will get bigger and bigger.

Once folks are threatened with decades in jail, the inner layers will begin to fall away.

Something about a 6x9 cell to motivate progressive loyalties to simply melt away.

This, to me, is the validation we've all been waiting for. Conspiracy nuts? No, reality nuts.

As the IRS story continues to unfold, political pundits and talking heads are now gleefully linking the scandal to “this administration.” While this administration certainly bears accountability for any and all management decisions made on their watch, to frame IRS abuses as only problematic to one administration or political party is simply untrue and unwise.

Both political parties and numerous administrations have historically used the IRS as a political weapon. It just so happens the IRS blew up in a BIG way during this administration, with some of the most egregious examples of abuse finally coming to light.

Yet, one can look through history and find equally awful examples. James Bovard, in his recent Wall Street Journal Opinion Editorial, shared a fascinating look at how the IRS has routinely been used as political hired guns, and Gail Russell Chaddock provides additional examples in her Christian Science Monitor article.

Using the IRS scandal as a partisan political tactic grossly minimizes the IRS’ longstanding history of being used as a tool of extreme political weaponry.

This line of thinking serves to minimize the damage the IRS does every single day to innocent taxpayers who simply want to pay their taxes, support their families and honor their country.

More importantly, it has the potential to polarize the only real solution to the problem - the FairTax Plan – as an extreme, partisan “opposition” tax plan.

Do not fall into this trap. The IRS scandal is not about Republicans or Democrats, conservatives or liberals or this administration. It is about how the IRS has historically been and continues to be the ultimate tool of systemic abuse and control of the American people and her political outcomes.

The income tax and the IRS have been given 100 years to demonstrate to the American people that they are worthy financial stewards. They have failed. It’s time for Congress to get the IRS out of politics. It’s time for the FairTax.

I'll bet she doesn't want to limit the money Unions give to democrats, just money that might be given to Republicans.

And, I bet they haven't had the Federal shakedown - by four Federal agencies - that the True the Vote's founder has had.
