Seriously, why? Outside of the fact that the IRS was unfairly targeting Tea Party groups and Tea Party groups generally oppose Obama, there doesn't appear to be any linkage between the two. If there is, hopefully it's discovered, but there really isn't a reason to believe so.
But it's more fun when everything is Obama's fault, right?
The Treasury Secretary takes his direction from the president.
So you all are saying that obama told the Treasury Secretary to tell the directory of the IRS to force his peons to go after the nutcases in the Teaparty?
Why could'nt it be that the laws pertaining to the contributions to political parties are so wrong that the IRS never got a full grasp on it in the first place?

I said nothing close to that.

If you want to argue that the IRS isn't smart enough to enforce the tax rules, O.K. Argue away. I won't try and dispute that argument right or wrong.
If it was democrats that were being harassed by the IRS don't you know that Obama would know about it and jailed those who did it. Not so with the conservatives. It went on for years!

If the IRS was doing a great job, you'd be applauding obozo.
Enough said.
Not sure whether these are comparable situations, but I wouldn't ever blame Bush for something he wasn't really aware of either.
I'm far from an Obama worshiper, and if the IRS was doing a great job, I don't think Obama should get the credit for it either.
Pretty good summation. The guys in charge of these agencies, other than appointees, are career bureaucrats and don't worry too much about who's in the White House. They act according to the tone the President sets. I don't particularly blame Obama. Lets hope he didn't know. It wouldn't be good for the country.
Apparently many of the same things that happened under bush (unmentioned) is being blown up under obama
Since when do two wrongs make it right.....why is it you and others didn't like Bush's tactics and Obama is golden. Shouldn't we the people call BS when either side does it?
