NBC News reports two agents have been disciplined for doing so, and the Justice Department announced a criminal probe. But so far no one has identified a single conservative group that was denied status in the controversial review, though some faced bureaucratic hurdles and had their tax-exempt status delayed. In fact, the only known 501(c)(4) applicant to have its status denied happens to be a progressive group: the Maine chapter of Emerge America, which trains Democratic women to run for office. Although the group did no electoral work, and didn’t participate in independent expenditure campaign activity either, its partisan status apparently disqualified it from being categorized as working for the “common good.” They were delayed for years, dickcheese, which is worse.

[link to www.politicususa.com] MARTIN BASHIR: Many of us don’t know much about him. Darrell Issa. He’s worth $745 million. He made that fortune largely by running a car alarm company which is funny because he was once indicted to stealing a car as well as one other arrest for carrying a concealed weapon, all of which I guess makes him the paragon of virtue and the man who can grandstand and treat with ranked discourtesy the attorney general, is that right? ARI MELBER: Congressman Issa has been throwing out a lot of charges but there is finally some scrutiny of his background, both before serving in Congress and running the oversight committee. Ryan Lizza and “The New Yorker” as we discussed went in and looked at his record, looked at the indictment on the stolen car, an arrest for concealed weapons. Looked at Congressman Issa’s defense, often saying his brother who’s had trouble with the law was the target of these investigations. Also a lot of serious allegations about arson in a factory he owned although he says it was an accidental fire. Even before coming – Bashir? What a fucking retard. Here it starts: Time to attack the messenger. Discredit him. Alinsky 101. Yes, that is to be expected. It is also incredibly weak. The Secular Progressives have been exposed! It's over. Most of them are in denial. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 34884778 She's %&^# either way she went. If she testifies and tells what she knows, she probably will implicate POTUS and will be eliminated. If she pleads the fifth, it will be presumed that she is guilty and she will be eliminated before she can divulge what she does knows. Anyone want to bet that she will mysteriously "disappear"??? No, she will "have a seizure," "fall into a pool," have a "driving accident," a "flying incident" (as in plane comes in for a HARD landing) - crashes and burns, or she will "accidentally stab herself to death in the heart 14 times." |

Replace the IRS with a Flat Tax. Unfortunately it will never happen. Even the GOP will never get behind a flat tax. A Tripartisan solution will arrive in Washington D.C. Flat Tax Remember Herman Cain and his 9 - 9 - 9 Plan ? That's it. |

This hurt the Republican efforts via intimidation. And it helped the Democrats. Romney must be amused. Note that he DID question how the Dems could be commenting on his tax records. The media, administration, and IRS stood silent. And he brought up Benghazi in the debates, to little effect. |
