One More Reason to Call the IRS a "Bunch of Dirty S.O.B's"




      So the IRS is corrupt.  I am so totally shocked.  They already can go after a person apart from the due process promised us in the Constitution.  They have been caught targeting first groups, then individual people based upon their political views.  Their ruthless attacks were on those who consider themselves to be conservatives, especially those who had ever mentioned the words "patriot, patriotic, or tea party."  They must have been monitoring phone calls or e-mails or something. 

      Many of the Tea Party people are, well, way out in right field, but no American citizen deserves to become a special IRS target based upon their political viewpoint.  Where will they stop?  This is entirely a tactic reminiscent of the Brown Shirts.  The Brown Shirts made sure that people could only vote for Adolf Hitler, by beating up and otherwise preventing anyone to vote who wasn't a Nazi Party member.  By removing all competition Hitler won the election to the position of chancellor.  What the IRS was doing though, didn't prevent them from voting in the last election.  By targeting them for tax crime investigations, anyone they find guilty would be unable to vote in future elections (for how long I don't know).  By removing the conservatives from the voting pool, then only democrats will get into office.  
      Then I suppose they could start attacking even democrat voters who didn't like the candidate endorsed by the Brown Shirts IRS.  Who would they have targeted next - the Christians?  Residents of an area that historically is in a "red" zone?  Maybe they already have.  Where would they stop?   
      At least for the time being they have been stopped - but only because they got caught.  There is now a congressional and senate investigation about this, and the President is distancing himself as far as possible from this atrocity. The individual people who got caught are claiming they were following orders from higher up. 
      I wonder how long it will be before they start up again?  

      Since the time that I posted this much more information has come out, so I think it's time to make some corrections.   Very specifically the added scrutiny and investigations were not toward the politically affiliated groups in general, but to those who were applying for tax free status as non-profit organizations.  Because of the high profile this has had in the news media, many of the executives in the IRS are being investigated themselves, and many have endured forced resignations (I think that's still a mere slap on the hand).  They still do have the lists though, of the names of people in these organizations.  That is something that still needs to be addressed.
