BOMBSHELL REPORT: IRS Targeted ‘Icky’ Conservative Groups

They might.

But the difference between us is I don't excuse my side when they do it. You do.

No, you ignore even worse things your side does, like start wars based on lies and torturing prisoners of war.

 

[JoeB131]

No it would nto be torture. Why would you think it was. You want to see what real torture looks like, you ignorant bed wetting scumbag? Try this:

Again, that all sounds bad, but what we did to these guys is just as bad.

Rectal feedings. Mock executions. Threatening to rape family members. Waterboarding.

But please try to insist that what we did was okay and that somehow, Lois Lerner not giving Karl Rove a fraudulent tax exemption was somehow worse.

Are you really saying a procedure where the suspect got up and walked away and was fine afterwards is the same where the suspect was left near death with broken bones?
Of course you are. Moral equivalence defines your world. Because smart people see differences. Stupid people see similarities.
Please show me where Lois Lerner denied Rove's application. Like any of that happened outside your mind.

Don't forget moveon, democracy alliance, organizing for America, organizing for action, obama for America, etc, etc, etc.

How convenient. So we can't apply the same standard now that was applied to them. It's OK if they broke the law since they weren't enforcing it then. Is that what you're saying?

I'm saying that before the batshit crazy that was the Citizen's United Decision, no one was going to try to do what the Teabaggers did after 2008.

Citizen's United opened the doors to creating these kinds of groups, and then left it up to the IRS to figure out which ones were really political groups and which ones were really social welfare agencies.

Well, you're wrong, because Media Matters was already one of those kinds of groups. It's overtly political and biased. The same goes for ThinkProgress and dozens of others.

The fact is that you don't give a rats ass about leftwing groups doing exactly what you attack rightwing groups for doing. You're a hypocrite the size of the Hindenburg.

Acid attack, before and after
Deny the torture report? Of course, as torture consists of burning one alive and hanging you from bridges, lopping off your head after telling you daily for a week it is coming, stoning one to death, crucifying one, burning you with blow torches, breaking your limbs, burning a school full of girls with acid. Now that is torture.

Oh, so now you guys are going to believe committee reports out of Congress?

lol

Uhmmmmm . . . who should we believe, Eric Holder?

He is talking about when you guys denied the Torture report. It's selective outrage. You refuse to believe the torture report but are looking for anything to further your fake controversy.

 

[depotoo]

And this thread is about abuse by the irs, that was intentional to one group: conservatives.

Torture is torture, dude. And, yes, a lot of these guys were left with permanent injury.

BOMBSHELL REPORT IRS Targeted Icky Conservative Groups The Daily Caller

Top IRS officials specifically targeted tea party groups and misled the public about its secret political targeting program led by ex-official Lois Lerner, according to a bombshell new congressional report.


The Daily Caller has obtained an advance copy of a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee report set to be released Tuesday morning that definitively proves malicious intent by the IRS to improperly block conservative groups that an IRS adviser deemed “icky.” (That’s right. “Icky.”)


“The Committee has identified eight senior leaders who were in a position to prevent or to stop the IRS’s targeting of conservative applicants,” the Oversight report states. “Each of these leaders could have and should have done more to prevent the IRS’s targeting of conservative tax-exempt applicants.”


Here are six major takeaways from the report:


1. The IRS admitted that the front office was “spinning” about the targeting rumors as early as 2012, after IRS commissioner Douglas Shulman denied the tea party targeting to Congress.​

It was much earlier than 2012.
