Obama Met With Anti-Tea Party IRS Union Chief The Day Before IRS Targeting Started

[edthecynic]

This is absolutely damning. We know that she visited the day before, you don't know what was being said during that visit. This story needs to find a way in the the public sight quickly.

Bullshit!
There were 200 people present.

Kelley spoke at the March 31 White House Forum on Workplace Flexibility, hosted by President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, which examined ways that the government might help American workers juggle the twin demands of work and family.

If the meeting was only between the president and the union head, then a real problem may exists.

If it were a group of union heads meeting with the president, less of a problem exists.

And before the ant-labor thugs get started, remember that Cheney held secret meetings with trade association and industry reps to write proposed laws.

It was the White House Forum on Workplace Flexibility at the Old Executive Office Building which was attended by approximately 200 attendees including business leaders, workers, policy experts and labor representatives discussing telework and worklife balance issues.

No WONDER obama fought so hard to keep the white house visitor logs from being made public.

Obama certainly does have the most Transparent Administration Ever...just not in the way that he advertised. His Transparency is of thoroughly corrupt abuse of power.

President Empty Chair claims he found out about the IG report last week...but that doesn't address when he actually first knew about the IRS' targeting of conservative groups.

Not so coincidentally, the day before the targeting began, the head of the anti-Tea Party IRS Union met personally with Obama the day before the targeting started.

This could be the smoking gun...

(And on a side note, it is truly horrifying that the IRS has a labor union.)

According to the White House Visitors Log, provided here in searchable form by U.S. News and World Report, the president of the anti-Tea Party National Treasury Employees Union, Colleen Kelley, visited the White House at 12:30pm that Wednesday noon time of March 31st.

The White House lists the IRS union leader’s visit this way:

Kelley, Colleen Potus 03/31/2010 12:30

In White House language, “POTUS” stands for “President of the United States.”

The very next day after her White House meeting with the President, according to the Treasury Department’s Inspector General’s Report, IRS employees — the same employees who belong to the NTEU — set to work in earnest targeting the Tea Party and conservative groups around America. The IG report wrote it up this way:

April 1-2, 2010: The new Acting Manager, Technical Unit, suggested the need for a Sensitive Case Report on the Tea Party cases. The Determinations Unit Program Manager Agreed.

In short: the very day after the president of the quite publicly anti-Tea Party labor union — the union for IRS employees — met with President Obama, the manager of the IRS “Determinations Unit Program agreed” to open a “Sensitive Case report on the Tea party cases.” As stated by the IG report....

The American Spectator : Obama and the IRS: The Smoking Gun?

How many times does the Right-wing media have to lie to you before you SUCKERS stop swallowing their bullshit?????

She attended a public forum headed by the president along with 200 others. To the lying scum CON$ervoFasist Brotherhood, a public forum is a private meeting.

 

[edthecynic]

No WONDER obama fought so hard to keep the white house visitor logs from being made public.

Yeah, because lying scum will try to pervert it to deceive suckers like the Misinformation Voters. What the premeditated lying scum leave out from the log is the visitor log also notes that Kelley's visit took place in the "South Court Auditorium," a large room in the Old Executive Office Building across from the White House. It was not a private meeting, it was a public forum attended by 200 people.

Now the lying scum who "reported" this had to know this as a result of their research, so why did the lying scum leave it out???

You sound a little shrill there, ed. Take a midol.

I must commend our Dear Leader for the effective time management. It's much more efficient to gather the dogs together for the Pavlovian cues.

So why did your lying scum source claim it was a personal meeting if it was a meeting with a pack of dogs which would be much worse?

Again, it was a White House Forum on Workplace Flexibility at the Old Executive Office Building attended by approximately 200 attendees including business leaders, workers, policy experts and labor representatives discussing telework and worklife balance issues.

For the sake of your boyfriend, ed...please....just take a pill.

 

[Caroljo]

I looked at the log....it looks like it's only for 2009 & 2010? Not very up to date!

 

[edthecynic]

For the sake of your boyfriend, ed...please....just take a pill.

CON$ can't admit that their sources are lying scum making fools of all who stupidly parrot their lies in a public forum, so they resort to personal attacks.
Thank you.

 

[koshergrl]

I'm trying to help you, ed!

So touchy.

 

[candycorn]

So let me get this straight...

You guys think that the President, wanting to make a request for someone to do something clearly illegal, invited that person to the White House to meet with him personally so he could make the request, in person. And have the presence of this person documented via the WHVL.

The IRS scandal is a scandal, the President is responsible for what happens on his watch. But you guys are getting cartoonish--shit; you guys ARE cartoonish in your assumptions.

"You guys think that the President, wanting to make a request for someone to do something clearly illegal, invited that person to the White House to meet with him personally so he could make the request, in person. And have the presence of this person documented via the WHVL."

It's relevant and it links him directly. And yes I can see him doing it.

You are dumber than imaginable in that case.

 

[koshergrl]

Yeah, cuz it's dumb to suspect our dear leader of underhanded dealings...

Or of being a moron.

 

[Decus]

Lobbyists, gun-running, intimidation, incompetency, the war rages on and "what difference does it make"? Sounds like a good way to start a bananna republic. Remind what the whole "Hope and change" thingy was meant to herald.

 

[edthecynic]

Yeah, cuz it's dumb to suspect our dear leader of underhanded dealings...

Maybe so, but is definitely dumber and more moronic to believe anything that comes from a Right-wing source! This phony "scandalous meeting" is proof of that.

Obama Met With Anti-Tea Party IRS Union Chief The Day Before IRS Targeting Started

And all the nitwits on the right incorrectly inferred that the president ordered him to do something ‘illegal.’

With zero evidence, as usual.

If you think KG is dumb and dumber and more moronic, then you are the DUMBERESTESTEST and MONRONICOROSOMENTE-EST.

Keep telling yourself that, if it gives you comfort, but even the Dems in the Senate feel that something very wrong is going on in the Executive Branch headed up by Obama.
