We've known for weeks the argument made by senior IRS officials that targeting of conservative Tea Party groups was carried out by a "few low-level agents in Cincinnati" is bogus. Now, we have even more proof. NBC News reported last night that the signatures of senior level IRS officials, including that of IRS Tax Exempt Organizations Director Lois Lerner, are on documents that were sent to Tea Party groups asking for more information.
Additional scrutiny of conservative organizations’ activities by the IRS did not solely originate in the agency’s Cincinnati office, with requests for information coming from other offices and often bearing the signatures of higher-ups at the agency, according to attorneys representing some of the targeted groups. At least one letter requesting information about one of the groups bears the signature of Lois Lerner, the suspended director of the IRS Exempt Organizations department in Washington.
Jay Sekulow, an attorney representing 27 conservative political advocacy organizations that applied to the Internal Revenue Service for tax-exempt status, provided some of the letters to NBC News. He said the groups’ contacts with the IRS prove that the practices went beyond a few “front line” employees in the Cincinnati office, as the IRS has maintained.
“We've dealt with 15 agents, including tax law specialists -- that's lawyers -- from four different offices, including (the) Treasury (Department) in Washington, D.C.,” Sekulow said. “So the idea that this is a couple of rogue agents in Cincinnati is not correct.”

A hostess twinkie could survive years on the back shelf in a 7-11. The same hostess twinkie could not survive this administration for one term.
Im just a lowly individual. They took most of my return. Ive been fighting to get it back for months. If I played the games with them that they have played with me I would be sitting in a jail cell and my house would be for sale. Nothing will be done. They are accountable to no one. They will continue doing whatever they want to do. One Solution: reduce withholding amount so you don't have to beg and plea for your own money at the end of the year. Gov has been hi jacked and over thrown by communists. It isnt coming. It is here now.

DId I miss anything? We having fun yet? More to come..... just sit back and hold on for the ride.
Call it what it really is, they lied and covered-up! Prosecute all the way to the top!
Time to bring back the Old Fashioned Hanging Judges! The Honest One's Only! Example- Judge Pirro should be sitting on a bench in the Supreme Court Of The United States!
Fellow Patriots: Everyone with an IQ above 72 must now realize that all the BS about 'people gone bad, from bad envirnments, people who do drugs and booze, child molesters, the Gay routine, and other perversions, ARE NOT SICK !! They are just plumb EVIL !! They are wicked! Their father is STD [Satan the Devil]! ! When a so-called 'Higher Official' is cought doing a gross sin, tossing the Law aside, breaking the rightful laws of the land -- it's a SAFE BET that they are mixed up in many other immoral endeavors ! Hello! Go figure: If a person committed murder and the penalty is death -- what would ever stop that perverted human being from killing again -- even multiple times ?? Same with stealing, adultry, lying, etc,. etc !! Well trained Pastors in a Bible teaching/ loving church know this fact well, and at a certain point, IF THE FALLEN ONE doesn't repent of his/ her ways, but is happy with their sinful PRACTICE/ Life style, steps should be taken to inform the rest of the Christian congregation, and REMOVE that person, before more people get hurt! But now... don't confuse this with a poor REPENTANT sinner, who just made ONE mistake, and is sorry for their error. I am a sinner, but strive to clean up my act, and continue to work on my faults -- knowing that I will NEVER be perfect while on planet Earth. But I know that I will go to heaven because of my firm belief in Jesus Christ, as my personal Saviour.
While I certainly cannot read hearts of other men -- I CAN see their actions. In obama's case we all can see a multitude of evil actions, words, books he has 'written', and terrible laws that he and Congress have signed into law that are super hurtful to the general public. He dumps on hard working people who are forced to support those who are lazy, illegal aliens, and law breakers! The ONLY WAY TO STOP THE BLOOD LETTING AND DAMAGE TO AMERICA IS TO remove him ASAP!!! Friends, any 'other way' is delusional, and just plain goofy! The longer we wait -- the worse things will get, until we lose ALL of our sacred Freedoms.
i think we all know where the order came from.
We The People demand that the US Congress honor their oath to the US Constitution and remove this fraud and usurper barack hussein obama from office under Article ll Section 1 Clause 5 of the US Constitution .
Prosecute to the fullest extent of the law !
O.K. -start at the bottom, work your way up, drag this all the way up.ward. Let's have sdome big name IRS/Democrat-named defendent hearings about Sept-Oct 2014. The jackasses had better start learning to sing, "Nearer My God to Thee".
Why should we be surprised? From day one of Obama's plan to change America he told us that people who are conservative and cling to their faith and their guns were the biggest obsticles to fufilling his dreams for a new nation. Recall how Obama said he wished we were like the Muslim nations where peace prevails. Pity no one in Obama's minions told him what Muslims think should be done with Christians.
