However, is it REALLY a surprise that right wing groups, who constantly espouse their disdain for the government/taxes, have come under the watchful eye of the IRS?
That being said, they should fire those responsible at the IRS after they investigate it and I'm sure they will.
How is this any different than the IRS flagging those for audit who claim the home office deduction? They flag those who are statistically more likely to violate regulations. Those applying for 501c4 status, who have political names, is an obvious red flag.
They singled out a specific group for intense scrutiny and questioning.
Discrimination to say the least.
Even the IRS has said they were wrong. I don't know why you are trying to convince us that they did nothing wrong. They admitted they did and apologized.

Abolish them, is my simple answer, along with the IRS.
The Constitution for the United States of America only allowed for a excise tax, and no more for the Federal Gov. Thus insuring "limited power". If States wished to impose other taxes they were allowed to without any input from the Fed Gov.

The IRS already admitted it was wrong.
What are you trying to convince us of here ?

Please..... Look at their actions, not their words. The "right win groups" as you call then are mostly correct. Problem is that none of them (well a few) do what they say once elected, not that the dems are any more honest.
When are all of you people gonna wake up to the fact that you are being duped and looted by both sides?

Can you show any proof that any of the groups that were targeted are statistically more likely to violate regulations? Most of the terms that they used to target people had no specific political meaning.
You are once again trying to twist this and it ain't working.
Yeah, and if by that time it's the right doing it?
That's right, you won't have a leg to stand on because you supported it so long as it was your party carrying it out.
You know, because this is the internet you won't have a leg to stand on either because here you are, in all your glory, saying how much it didn't concern you.
LOL. Yeah, I'm gonna be shaking in my boots when I'm audited for applying for tax exempt status!!

Discrimination isn't illegal unless it is on the basis of race, religion, sex, or national origin. The IRS routinely red flags certain types of businesses who are more likely to take unwarranted deductions. This is no different.
