So, who do you thinnk is pushing the IRS to harrass conservatives?

Leading up to a critical presidential election, the all-powerful IRS tried (and in some cases succeeded) to block conservative groups from participating in the democratic process.

The national so-called “news” media are covering up this unprecedented scandal in order to protect the Obama administration.

After (illegal) President Obama called the IRS’s targeting of conservatives a “phony” scandal, the media dutifully accepted his bogus claim and all but stopped reporting on every shocking new revelation in this rapidly developing story.

    The news media is covering up nothing. They started on the story because they thought it would yield big time destructive stories about the IRS and bring down Obama. Then the media learned the truth and had to back off. So the truth is out there, yet some conservatives have yet to accept reality.

    No one.. They were just doing their jobs. They looked at liberal groups also. From what I read, most of those groups didn't even have to file for the exempt status anyway.. It was much ado about nothing.. Obama is not an illegal president, even if he is a Democrat..

    I believe it's the law that tax exempt groups should not be exclusively political organizations. Both liberal and conservative groups were denied tax exempt status.

    Tax avoidance seems to be a hallmark of tea party protests and it is natural that the tax agency designed to enforce the laws would be stricter with the applications for non-profit (tax free) status. Sorry pal..
