The left has done exactly what they accused the Republicans of. The irony is that only the left has done it. The brain dead support here on cd of their attacks on average Americans is not only appalling but should scare the hell out of all of us. They are the true fascists.
They sold their soul to government.
"ads run by shadowy groups with harmless-sounding names. We don’t know who’s behind these ads and we don’t know who’s paying for them "
--- Barack Obama, August 21, 2010
But hey, Obama cult say it's ok put out an ad of grandma being thrown over a cliff. It's ok to accuse Romney of causing the death of a woman. It's ok that Obama lied about Obamacare. It's ok to call Obama's political opponent of being terrorist and other pathetic name calling.
The IRS tea-party audit story isn’t Watergate; it’s worse than Watergate.
“The Watergate break-in was the professionals of the party in power going after the party professionals of the party out of power. The IRS scandal is the party in power going after the most average Americans imaginable,”
The Democrats were so crazed in 2010 by Citizens United, so convinced that anyone’s new political money might bust their hold on power, that they sicced the most feared agency in government on people who disagreed with them.”
It is known that rich and powerful people and corporations have politicians in their pocket. They ask a Congressman for "favors" and tell them to vote a certain way on a bill, and that entity, will take care of that politician, donating money for his or her campaign to insure that he or she will be reelected.
The real reason the tea party are portrayed by both parties as radicals (left - terrorist) is because they are a huge threat to the current old guard methods of milking of donors by deliberately drafting threatening legislation, only to kill it when the coffers are refilled by another round of $30,000 a plate dinner guests.
The party in power used the IRS to kill the uprising of those who pay the bills and threaten the way Washington does business. The people on the dole, the people who buy into big government helped them kill it. So much for "change".
How about protecting ourselves from the politicians?
Those who wonder why the American tax code is so complex, convoluted, and constantly changing fail to appreciate what a wonderful tool it is for extortion. When you start seeing it as a source of enrichment for the Permanent Political Class, you will realize why we have the tax system we have.
We know that it is used for winning elections. But once money has been raised by politicians, it can be moved, redirected, and shifted to other tributaries apart from campaigns.
The money can be shifted into politicians' own personal pockets, or those of their family members. And it can be transferred to the pockets of other politicians--perhaps in exchange for a vote on a particular bill.
Republicans don't care? Is that why they are in hearings?
And yes, now that Democrats paved the road to the IRS being used against the people republicans can do the same. You democrats should have thought about it when you were doing it. Instead you defended them giving them the green light.
Then politicians can say, there isn't a smidgen of corruption.
And the two party Oligarchy carries on as if there is a lick of difference between them.
Thanks for confirming it.

I couldn't agree more. "Watergate" was a small scale operation to gain information on the Democrat's campaign strategy.
What Lois Lerner and her accomplices have done is to try to subvert the First Amendment by attempting to prevent certain groups unfavorable to the administration from giving voice to opposition viewpoints. They were clearly attempting to silence all opposition.

If there's anything to that, then you should be able to easily answer this question:
Where are the charges?
Ask Eric Holder.
