The Internal Revenue Service inappropriately flagged conservative political groups
 

"Lerner said the practice was initiated by low-level workers in Cincinnati and was not motivated by political bias. After her talk, she told The AP that no high level IRS officials knew about the practice."

Rrrriiiigggghhhhtt! :rolleyes:

If something like this had happened during the Bush administration, targeting "liberal" groups, there would have been calls for impeachment hearings by congressional Dems.

You do realize that the GOP does have a history of using tax-exempt organizations for political purposes, eh?

We'll see what the investigation uncovers.

Oh, please. The FBI under the Shrub was running around under the auspices of 'The Patriot Act' gathering everyones history at the public library, sheesh.

Big, woo...
"In some cases, groups were asked for their list of donors, which violates IRS policy in most cases, she said.
"That was wrong. That was absolutely incorrect, it was insensitive and it was inappropriate. That's not how we go about selecting cases for further review," Lerner said at a conference sponsored by the American Bar Association.
"The IRS would like to apologize for that," she added.
Lerner said the practice was initiated by low-level workers in Cincinnati and was not motivated by political bias. After her talk, she told The AP that no high level IRS officials knew about the practice.
Agency officials found out about the practice last year and moved to correct it, the IRS said in a statement. The statement did not specify when officials found out.
About 75 groups were inappropriately targeted. None had their tax-exempt status revoked, Lerner said."

Too bad.:rolleyes:

Not to mention Shrub firing 7 U.S. Attornies because of their unwillingness to engage in his extra-constitutional bullshit.

I guess the IRS will be the Right's Worse-than-Watergate Scandal du jour. Their overreaching should be fun to watch. Again.

They've gone from being anxious about their prospects in 2016 to full blown hair on fire and screeching like chicken littles in the House and Fox News. Time for some popcorn, methinks....;)

Republicans try to wiggle out of paying taxes? Naw! Who would believe such scurrilous lies? Never, I tell you!
