AP Breaking News- Obama Met With IRS Union Boss Day Before Tea Party Targeting Began.
The White House Visitors Log reveals that President Barack Obama met with Internal Revenue Service (IRS) union boss Colleen Kelley on March 31, 2010—the day before the Inspector General's report says the IRS began its scheme to target tea party and conservative groups.
Furthermore, Obama appointed Colleen Kelley, president of the National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU), to the Federal Salary Council whose job is to recommend pay raises for IRS and other federal employees one week after Obama and Democrats suffered historic midterm losses in 2010. Two years later, Kelley’s 150,000-member union had raised $580,412, 94% of which went to Democratic federal candidates. The group also strongly backed Obama's reelection.
American Spectator reporter Jeffrey Lord, who uncovered the visitor log connection, says the March 31st meeting between Obama and Kelley was not the only time Kelley met.
In fact, this record in the White House Visitors Log of a 12:30 Wednesday, March 31, 2010 meeting between President Obama and the IRS union’s Kelley was not unusual.
On yet another occasion, Kelley’s presence at the White House was followed shortly afterwards by the President issuing Executive Order 13522. A presidential directive that gave the anti-Tea Party NTEU — the IRS union — a greater role in the day-to-day operation of the IRS than it had already — which was considerable.
Since the IRS tea party targeting scandal erupted, Kelley has gone quiet.

Probably nobody, on the Left or the Right, has any doubt that political operatives in the White House orchestrated the IRS targeting.
Obviously, low-level people in Ohio did not initiate the targeting or pursue it for 2 1/2 yrs.
The question is: Can White House involvement be proven?

Bilbo will be crying wolf wolf even if he sees Obama being led out of the Oval Office in handcuffs.

Ten years ago republicans really didn't seem to have an issue when the IRS audited the NAACP for a couple of years.
Where there is smoke...there is fire.
I can almost guarantee that the IRS through data mining found out that conservative groups were trying to subterfuge the tax code. You neocon clowns created citizen's united and now the same people are the victims of their own creation.
Reap what you sow assholes....

You have to stop getting your news from MSNBC. The IRS has already admitted they targeted the groups because they were conservative.

Anybody who knows how a bureaucracy functions is aware that some GS-12 in Cincinnati didn't initiate or pursue this program to defeat tax-exempt status for Tea Party groups.
We all know there's a political layer at the top of a bureaucracy.
We all know the Chicago style of politics.
So we all know perfectly well what happened, with W House operatives getting the IRS to bother Tea Party groups.
Proving it, that's the only problem.

Wow, the IRS targeted political groups for trying to use a section of the tax law explicitly designed to NOT be used by political groups.
Yes, there is a scandal.
The scandal that political groups have been using 501(c)4 exemptions. That no application has been denied. That no application has ever been required. That no political operations have ever been interfered with in any way. That no delay in political activities by these groups has ever been seen. That taxpayers dollars through this exemption have been used by these groups for political activities.

There is probably fairly wide accord on the question whether such exemptions should exist.
In the instant case, of course, the issue is the partisan nature of the process just before a big election.
Obviously, the intent of political employees at the IRS, and Treasury and the WH, was to take as much juice as possible out of Tea Party-like groups before the election.

Yes, the question is the partisan nature and why certain terms were used. How they were selected for use. Why subordinates went back to those terms after being told they were NOT to be used. Why the person who exposed the use of these terms is now being persecuted by Republican members of Congress and the general pseudo-conservative community. What fraction of conservative political action committees were targeted and what fraction of liberal political action committees were targeted.
Still, no group was ever prevented from operating for even a second. There was no loss by anyone. No interference in operations.

Boehner is a tool. His zeal in trying to win political points for the right wing just screwed up the investigation. The guy goes on TV and blathers how people should go to jail before they had completed the investigation. Now all the career bureaucrats in the IRS have clammed up because they believe they will be prosecuted. Now everybody who is innocent over at the IRS will not say anything, because they don't want to get caught in the neocon witch hunt. And this investigation will go no where.
The cops don't go on television saying that they have so and so under investigation. They go on TV after the investigation has be completed and people were arrested...

"President Obama’s half-brother, who runs a foundation that collects funds in the United States, was able to get approval of a tax-exempt status from the Internal Revenue Service in an unheard-of time period of only a month, records reveal. Barack Obama’s half-brother Abongo Malik Obama, also known as “Roy” Obama, appears to have received the sudden IRS approval to operate as a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization in only 30 days. The result was made retroactive for three years."

Nothing funny about Nixon's abuse of the IRS for political purposes.
Or Obama's.
