The article states that the IG was investigating the IRS, not the organizations, therefore, your second "if" statement is not possible. Furthermore, when this practice started(March 2010), there were less organizations filing for tax-exempt status than in 2009, so the data doesn't even back up why they would start using a groups name in their examinations, nor does it explain why they asked many of the questions of these groups and not all groups.
Mr. George told Treasury officials about the allegation as part of a routine briefing about ongoing audits he would be conducting in the coming year, and he did not tell the officials of his conclusions that the targeting had been improper, he said.
When Republicans asked Mr. Miller whether the targeting of conservative groups was divulged to Obama administration officials outside the I.R.S., Mr. Miller said “that would be a violation of law.”
“I would be shocked” if that occurred, he said.
So you don't see a problem with this ? That information that could have possibly changed the outcome of the election and could have saved millions the extended suffering of four more years of Obama ?

The Treasury Department’s inspector general told senior Treasury officials in June 2012 he was investigating the Internal Revenue Service’s screening of politically active organizations seeking tax exemptions, disclosing for the first time on Friday that Obama administration officials were aware of the matter during the presidential campaign year.

Ok enough is enough is this not proof enough for impeachment
More like saving millions from hearing the incessant whining from the anti-obama wingnuts
Not that what the IRS did was right....but where were all of you who are "outraged" over this, when the IRS was targeting left-wing groups during the Bush years?
When the IRS targeted liberals - Salon.com
Lol....You really have no substantive input do you ? In the midst of unprecedented scandals that have just begun, that truly define the moral character of a corrupt administration and ideology the best you have to offer is that drek ???
It's going to be a fun few months, watching everything you and your ilk stand for crumble under it's own weight.
Watching you guys desperately grasp and scratch at relevant defenses when there are none. Look, there are consequences to uninformed morons blindly electing a President because they were so gullible and intellectually lazy, they believed everything the media told them .
So I'll sit back and enjoy the show as more and more information comes out, and you guys get your asses handed to you in 2014. Were you guys TRYING to lose the 2014 elections ??
Do you not read? I said "rake him over the coals," what should I say? "Crucify him?"
Ah yes, you know the Progressive Machine is getting nervous when it rolls out a pathetic attempt at equivalence from Salon.
Good luck. Your Feature Presentation is likely to turn into a 5 minute short. Seen the polls lately in the 2014 races? If not, you probably don't want to see.
Just pointing out the hypocrisy from the "outraged". If you truly were outraged, you would have been equally as outraged back then...but somehow you all were surprisinly quite and un-outraged....why was that Ocean?
Lol...what polls ? From MSNBC ? The New York Times ? Seriously, you guys got caught, and if you think it's bad now, wait a couple of months.
Ehh not quite sure on that. I'm a democrat and I payed a higher effective tax rate then Mitt Romney did. I know the majority of my co-workers did as well, it was quite the fiasco around election time.
But how do you know all of us were quiet and un-outraged?
For example, what do you know about the All Saints Church deal in Pasadena? The writer of the Salon article should be fired over lack of context and content.
Frankly, all the Salon article proved was how scared and pathetic the Progressive Machine is looking.
LOL....the Benghazi "scandal" is already dying out because as expected.....the release of the emails pretty much debunked the whole conspiracy theory and then today the revelation that the leaked emails were really alterations leaked by Republicans further solidifies the majority of Americans beliefs that this FauxNew created scandal was nothing more than GOP political gamesmanship.
Good luck though....you might get somewhere with the IRS story. That one has some validity to it.
Swing voters would care. The Black community that would come out like never before would care. The Hispanic Community that would feel like this would deny them their immigration reform would care. Impeachment should not be used for transient causes unrelated to the personal conduct of the person being impeached or else you are opening a can marked "Worms" containing pit vipers, though technically one can be impeached for any reason that the House determines impeachable, but then the Senate has to agree to remove them, and well, that just won't happen so why bother.
Care to point to a post where you were outraged over the IRS actions during GWB administration? Yeah...thought not.
Are you really suggesting that the black and hispanic communities are devoid of ethics? That's a mighty bold statement.
Delusional bull****. A concocted story from the Media Matters traitors, nothing more.
If that's the case, why are so many Democrats and liberal media outlets still freaking out?
Your boy is cooked.
There is a psychological condition for people who ask and then answer their own questions. The name of the condition escapes me.
Perhaps you've heard the diagnosis enough times to remind me what it is.
Then show me the post? Where did you express outrage?

Ummm. Well, gee, the Salon story weakly refers to situations that occured years and years ago.
Yet you want me to show you where I expressed outrage?
Really?
Oh boy, and people wonder what happened to California.
