When the IRS targeted liberals (school, compare, Michigan, elect)

[Finn_Jarber]

Under George W. Bush, it went after the NAACP, Greenpeace and even a liberal church

When the IRS targeted liberals - Salon.com

“I wish there was more GOP interest when I raised the same issue during the Bush administration, where they audited a progressive church in my district in what look liked a very selective way,” California Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff said on MSNBC Monday. “I found only one Republican, [North Carolina Rep. Walter Jones], that would join me in calling for an investigation during the Bush administration. I’m glad now that the GOP has found interest in this issue and it ought to be a bipartisan concern.”

but but that has nothing to do with getting a black guy out of office.

Bet you won't complain about the 20 new threads a day about the IRS scandal.

So the NAACP applied for tax exempt status under Bush ?
And their application was held up for over 13 months ?

I thought the NAACP was older than that.

I mean you are trying to compare yes ?
One would assume you are trying to compare apples to apples yes ?

Otherwise this is nothing more than.."But Bush did it tooooooooooooo".
But Bush didn't do it

The IRS warned that if they complained about Bush they may lose their tax-exempt status.

More demagoguery.

Is that a standing order you are obeying?

How does this compare.

Single target and they took the IRS to court and the case was dropped.
Where are the other 299 "targets" ?
Where is the DOJ investigation ?

It's not the same, not at all.

And from your own link:

Those cases mostly involved 501(c)3 organizations, which live in a different section of the tax code for real charities like hospitals and schools. The rules are much stronger and better developed for (c)3′s, in part because they’ve been around longer.

Go back to google and keep searching.
