Re: IRS APOLOGIZES FOR TARGETING TEA PARTY GROUPS
Fox is reporting that the IRS was told by Washington DC to target conservative groups:

As far as I could tell, the article doesn't elaborate on exactly what "Washington DC" means... Assuming their sources are correct, it could still just be internal to the IRS (but I kinda doubt it).

I am not a lawyer, nor have I played one on TV, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, nor should anything I say be taken as legal advice. If it is important that any information be accurate, do not use me as the only source.

Re: IRS APOLOGIZES FOR TARGETING TEA PARTY GROUPS
For heavens sakes we all know this goes to the White House and likely members of congress. Why do they have to beat around the bush....almost like they are going to "accidentally" find out that the White House was involved. UGH! GET ON WITH IT!
Sorry but I am frustrated with the unbelievable assault on our constitutional freedoms and the inability of ANYONE to hold those who are trouncing them accountable.

Nothing that has happened since he miraculously jumped into the world-stage has changed my assumption that he is indeed some incarnation of the Manchurian Candidate.

From hardly ever attending his PDB in person, to starting his day at 10:45 AM, to sleeping through Benghazi to never (hardly) meeting with his cabinet or Congress. These are all very clear (to me) signs of an administrator that is in over his head... they speak directly to incompetence.
How do you vote for a man for POTUS that has never managed anything more complicated than a community of poor folks (as a volunteer?) and hides his academic and legal records from public view.?
Just because he's had some success pushing his agenda does not indicate competence for the job of POTUS. Obama's incompetence is exceeded only by Americas stupidity for giving such a blatantly unqualified person the job.

Re: IRS APOLOGIZES FOR TARGETING TEA PARTY GROUPS
I don't know, the examples you give for incompetence could be interpreted as indifference. He doesn't care about any of these things because they are irrelevant to his agenda. I think it may depend on what you measure his competence against. If measured in the traditional sense he may look incompetent, but measured against his success at "transforming" the country, he looks downright evil and effective.RoyGBiv wrote:Look at how he runs his administration.Purplehood wrote:I totally agree.

It's just too easy to give credit to Obama for being "smart enough to accomplish his evil agenda".
Truth is... if he was so smart... he would be sure that all the basics of his position were covered, at least competently, so that he could competently respond to a completely foreseeable event such as Benghazi (well.. terrorist attack on US foreign assets in general.. we have a clear chain of command for stuff like that, no?... he was notified within minutes of the attack, no?... but he was unprepared to make any decision other than stand down... no?... You think stuff like that doesn't come up regularly in the PDB? It's easier to read the report... but what do you lose? ), or the IRS, or just about everything Eric Holder does, doesn't make him look like the north end of a southbound mule.
He's accomplished some of his evil agenda DESPITE being a morally corrupt human who is over-matched for his position. How? Because he has MANY accomplices. He's not so smart. He's a sociopath.
