"The RWNJs, however, don't have time to wait for the facts to unravel"

Maybe if the IRS official would answer the questions INSTEAD OF REPEATING, " I DON'T KNOW", and provide the requested e-mails and other data these things wouldn't drag out so long.

Oops, I almost forgot, if one of the prime people involved who signed many of the IRS letters wouldn't plea the fifth.

It is kinda hard to get things done when no one speaks up. Don't you think?

I find it humorous that the RWNJs think it's okay to receive special tax benefits for special interest groups ... they agree with, but who fight so hard aginst similar taxpayer benefits for groups offering pro-American, normal American value issues.
I'm confused, easily done. First all we heard is NO right leaning org have been denied.

Now you claim they filed for 1 type of exemption and really meant to operate under another. If this is the case don't you think they would have been denied? If YOU know these the facts wouldn't the IRS KNOW THE SAME FACTS?

OR ARE YOU SMARTER THEN THEY ARE?

In an electronic age things are done very quick, yet with the IRS still working with a lot of paper you need to take the time to look it over.
Mr. George, the IG said 90 days was the normal average time to be approved.

Some have been waiting over 3 years with no decision and are still waiting.

Did the groups not want to answer the questions the IRS staff had?
Did they not want to document there actions?
Did they not seek counsel from an acct?
Lot of stuff happens if you dont know what you are doing.
It is apparent to me that you haven't been following what actual did happen and the massive amount of intrusive questions that were asked.

Did you watch the hearings with the victims?

Repeating things which are not truthful doesn't change the fact they're not truthful. Your characterization is not truthful. Take the time to inform yourself, next time.
