A Conservative Republican Ordered The IRS Tea Party Investigations

[Black_Label]

There goes that "blame Obama" conspiracy,.. Will the right wing machine apologize for spreading falsehoods?


A U.S. Internal Revenue Service manager, who described himself as a conservative Republican, told congressional investigators that he and a local colleague decided to give conservative groups the extra scrutiny that has prompted weeks of political controversy.

In an official interview transcript released on Sunday by Democratic Representative Elijah Cummings, the manager said he and an underling set aside "Tea Party" and "patriot" groups that had applied for tax-exempt status because the organizations appeared to pose a new precedent that could affect future IRS filings.

He could have also described himself as a three legged goat. How do we know he is a "conservative" or "Republican"? He be lying or he could be a RHINO.

Is there a way to say "Legimens" like Severus Snape in Harry Potter? Is there Veritaserum?

EDIT:

FUCK, MAYBE HE'S EVEN A NEOCON (neocons hate tea party), that believes that tremendous standing armies and imperialism constitutes "ultra conservatism."

 

[S.J.]

Man, you're desperate. I'm sure a "conservative Republican" is gonna target conservative groups for intimidation.

 

[Two Thumbs]

Issa is refusing to release the reports. If it's found Issa is trying to cover up for the right wing cronies, I'm sure you will be leading the charge to call for his resignation, correct?

You liberal tea baggers are a bunch of moronic nutters. Funny how you all come on here with "difinitive proof" that all these scandals aren't the fault of the obama administration. Oh, if only the real world would listen to you whack jobs right? Because people who live and work in Washington DC just don't know as much about what's going on as you USMB lefties do.

And yet..with no proof WHATSOEVER..Issa, the man running the investigations has already said, that he believes that the Obama administration was running this..

That's the "objective" opinion of the criminal running this dog and pony show.

It wouldn't matter any way to you folks.

Everyone of these ginned up "scandals" has gone down in flames. Doesn't stop you guys from rehashing them weekly.

 

[Geaux4it]

Yeah, can't for the life of me figure why one would think Obama had anything to do with the IRS targeting.

Cummings has never appeared to me to be the sharpest knife in the drawer. The Cincinnati office of IRS was named as the source of the order to go after conservative organizations or individuals. I think it's been pretty well proven that orders came out of DC. My understanding is that the Cincinnati office just happens to be the office where the majority of 501(c) applications are handled.

I would think someone who represents himself as a conservative Republican might be the last person to suggest unwarranted scrutiny on conservative groups. Perhaps he was a liberal Democrat trying to deflect blame?

They should consult you. This would all be over in 5 minutes.

None of them go down in flames, they just get ignored by the liberal media.

Is he suggesting that HE and HIS COLLEAGUE are the ONLY people who did that, and that they acted without approval of his superiors?

It's kind of starting to be over.

The great thing is..that Democrats are finally bringing up the fact that 501c law and IRS policy do not comport.

Once they do..501c will become what they are intended to be.

Well actually they don't.

ACORN was defunded based on a fucking lie.
Shirley Sherrod was made to resign based on a fucking lie.
President Obama been ridiculed for spending 200 million dollars a day on an India visit based on a fucking lie.
Senator Menendez had his named dragged through the mud based on a fucking lie.

The other lies the media has told:
-Brian Terry was killed by a fast and furious "gun". Complete bullshit.
-President Obama "watched" 4 men get killed in Benghazi. Complete bullshit.
-Doug Shulman visited the Whitehouse over 100 times during the Obama administration. Complete bullshit.

Wow this doesn't look like a cover up. Yeah we have a perfectly reasonable explanation that involves blaming a conservative Republican. What are the chances?
Meanwhile back on planet Earth: Lois Lerner took the 5th. Why ddint she just say a conservative Republican is responsible for this? IRS employees named Carter Hull as the IRS lawyer who authorized this. Who is he and where is he? And how does this conflict with what Cummings is saying? The targeting went well beyond asking some questions of political groups. It was clearly coordinated and they targeted donors for IRS audits as well. This explanation conveniently leaves that out.
No, we have a massive cover up on our hands. Recall that Nixon was impeached not for Watergate but for the cover up.

You could make a case she was sitting in on those powerpoints that were to become the number one legislative agenda for the conservatives in the house and senate.

Make Obama a one term president.

Whether by the election..or impeachment.

 

[Ravi]

No way! Who would expect a conservative to act from a position of integrity???

If this turns out to be true this person deserves a medal.
