Does the seriousness of this issue completely elude you? One of your causes is to get tax rates raised. An IRS viewed as corrupt could have problems collecting, this could go very bad for the country. We should all be doing everything possible to clean house and present the IRS as absolutely fair and un-biased.

>> Lois called some Rs assholes Get the guillotine out. It isn't proof of a scandal, nor is it claimed that this incident, taken alone, is proof. It is one more piece of evidence of this higher-up at IRS having a vendetta against particular political views, which is not acceptable at IRS. If she dislikes Republicans or dislikes Atheists or dislikes McDonalds burgers, that's her business. But when she uses that dislike to target particular entities it becomes a violation of the law. And that's what happened. Because of hers and the IRS leaderships and the White House acting in concert to obfuscate the truth, it must be presumed there is at least a possibility each of them is involved in a conspiracy. Maybe not. But the more they stonewall, the more suspicious it seems. The cover-up needs to end and Obama needs to lay his cards on the table. If it turns out he isn't involved, fine. But we really need to know if our president is using the IRS as a weapon against his political opponents.
