"Not a single one got rejected...."

How many of them gave up trying?

Z,
They didn't "go after" anyone.
You would NOT say the same thing if left-wing groups were targeted by the IRS, especially those representing minority races.

>> They didn't "go after" anyone. Not a single one got rejected and the more that comes out, the more it seems like what went on was actually pretty transparent.

Ridiculous statement. There was NOTHING "Transparent" about it. The IRS commissioner was a total idiot, and failed to answer any questions in a meaningful way (today, he was asked if he was a lawyer and he replied, "I attended law school", then went on to say he could not respond to questions about the contents of the First, Fourth, Fifth, and 19th Amendments. Only an Obama could have a nitwit like this running the IRS). The department head has taken the 5th to avoid answering questions, although she received more than $100K in bonuses over the last three years, and has been promoted to run the Obamcare tax implementation.

And you call it "transparent"?

It is the problem with liberals. Total hypocrites who don't give a damn about the facts and have party politics so far up your asses that you can't think rationally.

No kidding. I can see why they thought that was good criteria. The Patriot groups are strongly associated with the militias and those are very much political. As is the Tea party. Granted, it was not particularly politically correct, but. ..

Who would have guessed that the Right would be such proponents of political correctness?

Moron, the goal was to keep those groups and their $$ on the sidelines until after President Odumbo was re-elected.....and it worked. That's what was transparent.
