Republicans won’t let IRS scandal die
We’ve been hearing about the Internal Revenue Service scandal for a couple of years now. It started out with conservative groups complaining about being targeted for extra scrutiny when it came to their applications for tax-exempt status. The IRS denied this and liberals taunted conservatives with charges of paranoia.
Eventually, evidence increased that the IRS had done exactly what it was being accused of, so the agency admitted it but blamed it on a few individuals in their Cincinnati office. This, of course, was also a lie. When more evidence was gathered, the agency admitted the problem was more widespread, but claimed that the targeting was not politically motivated. Another lie, obviously, but a more difficult one to prove.
Then, during an interview with Bill O’Reilly of Fox News on Super Bowl Sunday earlier this year, President Obama said that there was “not even a smidgeon of corruption” on the part of the IRS. I still can’t believe he said that with a straight face, but he is quite an actor, so I suppose it shouldn’t have been surprising.
The good news is that some politicians are not in the mood to let this go. In fact, House Republicans have put together a report that they say proves Obama and fellow Democrats pressured the IRS to target conservative groups.
Republicans have been trying to acquire emails that former IRS official Lois Lerner previously sent regarding the situation, but were recently told by the agency that many of them have been lost, including ones that might have been sent to the White House.
When asked if he thought the administration would go so far as to intentionally delete the emails in question, Senator Orrin Hatch, a Republican from Utah, said, “I do. I think you can’t put anything past this administration.” Amen to that.
Would you be surprised if it turned out that the Obama Administration had instructed – or at least encouraged – the IRS to harass conservative groups during the two years prior to his 2012 re-election? I’d love to hear from you about this.
There isn’t a doubt in my mind this was done. Why is it i haven’t seen or heard anything about Gowdy s investigation in 3 or 4 weeks. That is concerning to me.
Have the People of this Great Country (Well, it was at one time!!) Forgot that we can impeach the president if we feel that we are being misrepresented or he is going around rules and regs to get what HE (NOT WE)wants!! The people of this Country need to Pull together and deal with this as a hole… complaining to one another or rioting will not fix anything. We need to come together as one voice, and tell them that we are not going to sit idly by while they run our country into the ground!! I hope we, as American’s, can do this…. before its too late!
Do i believe Obama would stoop this low? I think we have not yet seen the length he and company have gone to in this and yet uncovered moves that they have put in place to destroy this Nation. As the layers of dishonesty peel away more of his destructive moves are reveled.
M Molnar makes some very good points. In the 1950’s Nikita Kruschev went on American television and said “We will destroy you from within.” Maybe not communists (any more) but the sentiment is the same. We should be afraid. Very afraid.
God Bless America!!!!! And as one famous patriot said ” Give me liberty or give death” We did it once we can triumph against tyrants again!!!!
Now is the time for alarm! Check the amount of muslims in the oreoman’s cabinet. Way too many in positions of power including Homeland Security. Do you wonder where he gets his “counsel” from? They are right at his elbow. No wonder he has done nothing to secure our country’s borders – they want them open so more of their muslim brothers can sneak in without being noticed.
Then there is Benghazi and the horrific slaughter of our Americans. They weren’t just shot, but stabbed, sodomized, tongues cut out, castrated and beaten…and were still alive as the terrorists drug their nude bodies through the streets.
Don’t ever believe that muslims are a peaceful culture, because they are the most barbaric VIOLENT culture on this earth and deserve to be wiped off this world. Genocide would be a start.
As for the Americanized muslims who try to fit in and do not push their archaic beliefs on anyone…they are welcome to stay but they will be watched closely.
This is not a time of peaceful reflection, but of knowing who your neighbors are and where they come from — and following your gut feelings when situations don’t feel right. And standing up for your beliefs because those who oppose you are only a small number…we are MANY! The odds are on our favor!
Make your voice heard LOUD AND CLEAR! Keep a copy of our U.S. Constitution with you, read it from beginnong to end…know the Bill of Rights – they belong to you. Do NOT let the feeble minded liberals or their monkey leader try to intimidate you. They are your servants, not your boss. Be strong, keep God close and perservere!
