Remember the Birth Certificate?
Closed....Could have been closed years ago, but I guess it took a wacko like Trump to get done in 3 days what was asked for in 3 years.

Remember Rev Wright?
Was never a scandal... Just shows that Obama hangs with far-left radicals.

Remember Fast & Furious?
Ongoing.....Eric Holder is charged with contempt in this case. I guess the deaths of 300+ Mexicans (including 15+ from a teenage birthday party) and a couple of boarder agents from guns the Obama administration illegally smuggled to Mexican drug cartels is ok with you.

Remember the last 100 or so invented scandals?
No....I see you pretending that there aren't any scandals going on and that Obama is as clean as wind driven snow.

Why is it every time the Republicans invent a scandal, their polls drop (as Obama's rise)
Why is it when you seem to get desperate, you chuck up some poll?

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. John Kenneth Galbraith
You can't petition the government for lower taxes, the tax collectors will target you.
FREEDOM! FREEDOM! FREEDOM!
The cartoon above is how box's democracy works. That is the freedom he sacrificed for. He fought for the right of the government to crush any citizens organizing to reduce the tax burden. It was part of his oath to defend the constitution.
If I were the IRS and there was a group calling itself "i'M A LIBERAL WHO WON'T PAY MY TAXES"... I would investigate that group wouldn't you? And if this group was guilty of tax fraud, I would investigate similar groups.

These groups are petitioning the government for lower taxes, not tax fraud. I understand you would like to redefine these groups for rhetorical effect, but I haven't heard of these groups organizing tax fraud. Obama hasn't even suggested that tea party organizations are organizing tax fraud. You are making up your own delusional facts to fit your political agenda.
That same concept can be applied to every group that supports liberal progressive candidates do you really want the IRS to do that??
Yes I want any group that openly defies tax law to be held to the letter of the law, regardless of their political affiliation. From the Huston Chronicle:

The IRS is under heavy fire for its targeting of the tea party and similar organizations when they submitted applications for tax-exempt status. With a 40-year career advising tax-exempt organizations, both as an attorney and CPA, I have studied with interest the recent U.S. inspector general's May 14 report and the IRS response
Many people think the Internal Revenue Service was involved in a sinister plot to target tea party applications from the get-go. However, according to IRS written responses, early tea party applications containing descriptions of potential political, lobbying or advocacy activities caused later applications containing that name to be targeted. That criterion was inappropriate and politically incorrect "profiling," but it was a shortcut and efficient method of handling all tea party applications. Due to a limited staff, the IRS needed to develop workable solutions to handling the heavy increase in volume of similar applications, from conservative and liberal applicants.
Also according to the IRS, even had the tea party applications not been targeted, most of them would have been properly "centralized," or subjected to additional inquiries by IRS staff.
Most media reports focus only on the tea party applications that were targeted. However, the inspector general's report points out that the IRS attempted to subject all applications to centralization that contained indications the organization might engage in political campaigns, lobbying or advocacy.

NYTimes: 'LEGITIMATE BASIS' FOR IRS SCRUTINY OF CONSERVATIVE GROUPS
Quoted Text
When CVFC, a conservative veterans’ group in California, applied for tax-exempt status with the Internal Revenue Service, its biggest expenditure that year was several thousand dollars in radio ads backing a Republican candidate for Congress. The Wetumpka Tea Party, from Alabama, sponsored training for a get-out-the-vote initiative dedicated to the “defeat of President Barack Obama” while the I.R.S. was weighing its application.
And the head of the Ohio Liberty Coalition sent out e-mails to members about Mitt Romney campaign events and organized members to distribute Mr. Romney’s presidential campaign literature.
Representatives of these organizations have cried foul in recent weeks about their treatment by the I.R.S., saying they were among dozens of conservative groups unfairly targeted by the agency, harassed with inappropriate questionnaires and put off for months or years as the agency delayed decisions on their applications.
But a close examination of these groups and others reveals an array of election activities that tax experts and former I.R.S. officials said would provide a legitimate basis for flagging them for closer review.

If there was 'legitimate bias', then why would the IRS come out and apologize for targeting upstart Conservative groups?

Just wondering Boxy....Is this a new buzz word for you socialists (legitimate bias)? I can think of a whole bunch of applications to be used with this.
Let's try this as one such example.....
Is it 'legitimate bias' to ask for ID/Immigration status to those of Mexican/Hispanic origin living in border states with Mexico?

Obama should be impeached and removed from office for this abuse of power. And any Member of Congress who defends this corrupt administration should be soundly defeated in 2014 and replaced with someone with the integrity and intelligence to fulfill the oath of office (which includes the statement "to defend the Constitutinof the United States from all enemies foreign and domestic) and properly represent us in Congress.

"For this is what America is all about. It is the uncrossed desert and the unclimbed ridge. It is the star that is not reached and the harvest that is sleeping in the unplowed ground." Lyndon Baines Johnson
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."
Boxy will be back on soon™ to chuck multiple red herring and strawman arguments, just as soon as Soros gives them their talking points.

THEY CAN SAY ANYTHING IS LEGITIMATE using terms like 'it's unfair' 'it's not fair share' etc etc....those types of phrases incite anger BETWEEN us....ON PURPOSE....get it?
flat tax...simple tax law...this conversation would be moot if we just keep it simple stupid.....
EVERYONE IS POLITICAL OR THEY ARE A NOMAD
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
