I believe that all 501(c)(4) groups should be made to reapply so that politics are kept out of the non-profit tax area
The label was placed there by Cummings. Cummings has said many things he has never been able to back up.

It's why we are having this discussion. It's why Lerner has pled the 5th and it's reported others have been fired.

Only those against the presidents positions were targeted. Washington played a role in all of this. We are still trying to determine as to what extent.

You said the implication was incorrect. That is your position. Prove it and answer my questions.
Uh, no. I've said my piece. I'm not getting involved in one of your endless semantically pedantic back and forths. When you find out what role Washington played in it, you let us know.

You can claim it all to be a big coincidence but nobody really believes that.

Those counter to the presidents positions were targeted.

I'm sure I will. I wouldn't want to try and defend what you said either.

You will find nowhere that I said that they only targeted conservatives. I really wish you that feel some unknown reason to defend the IRS here would stick to what people say as opposed to continually trying to twist it.

Please, read a little slower and address what is said, not what you think it says.
