The Internal Revenue Service is facing a class action lawsuit alleging that more than 60 million personal medical records were improperly seized by agents from the embattled agency.

So, it looks like the IRS is practicing for it's role in Obamacare. How else can one explain an agency that's sole job is to deal with taxes is taking medical records of private citizens in violation of Federal Law (HIPPA).

The medical records included information on psychological counseling, gynecological counseling, sexual and drug treatment, and other sensitive medical treatment data.

no need to worry, there will be folks on this forum defending the IRS.
It matters not what happens when obama is in office, he can do no wrong.

To add insult to injury these same agents decided to order in Pizza and sodas and use the company video system to watch a basketball game during the raid.
I guess they didn't have a big screen tv at the IRS offices?

The only thing that is private now is the workings of the government.

The liberals are completely destroyed on CD...they are figuratively getting punched in the face now with their hands tied behind their backs.

They have no rebuttal.

There was an almost exact discussion a couple of days ago, about the same story. An important topic to consider, and if I'm recalling correctly not something as alleged, but regurgitating it over and over only serves to diminish it's discussion value, IMO.

This is a subject that is so important it cannot be discussed enough. I think may be even more important that the Zimmerman murder trial which has been going non stop for 2600 + posts now.

At least the third thread on this, so hardly a "NEWS ALERT".
