CHEATING, LYING, CORRUPTION @ ITS FINEST...........Attorney Confirms: Feds Helped Throw the Election in Obama’s Favor [DETAILS] Following the rise of the Tea Party and the 2010 elections, the IRS began targeting conservative groups, many believe on orders from President Obama himself. The targeting involved delaying applications for 501(c)4 tax-exempt status, which allows people to deduct their donations from their taxes. The targeting also resulted in an increase in the number of conservatives being audited by the IRS. As Congress and watchdog groups have dug for evidence of the obviously criminal activity, the IRS has conveniently “lost” crucial emails, and the Obama administration has stalled the investigation and covered up evidence at every turn. Jay Sekulow, Chief Counsel for the American Center for Law and Justice, has been at the forefront of the fight against the IRS. He recently sat down for an interview with BizPacReview to discuss the IRS targeting, among other things. Sekulow was asked what he believed was the root of the IRS targeting scandal, and what kind of impact it had on the political climate. He was also asked if he thinks Americans will ever find out the whole truth behind the scandal that has been covered up by the Obama administration. “The root of the IRS scandal is the Obama Administration’s hostility to dissent. Early in his first term, President Obama loudly and clearly declared his hostility to 501(c)(4) groups, even insinuating that they were receiving foreign money to oppose his domestic policies. A highly partisan IRS followed the President’s public advice and began targeting conservatives. It investigated conservative donors, conservative nonprofits, and even attempted to initiate criminal prosecutions with no evidence of wrongdoing.” “This targeting had an undeniable impact, perhaps even materially impacting the 2012 election.” “Finally, I do believe we will determine the truth—the whole truth—about the IRS scandal, but it may take years. The wheels of justice sometimes turn slowly, but we do believe justice will be done. We’ve sued the IRS on behalf of dozens of conservative groups, and we won’t rest until we’ve held the IRS accountable.” Jay Sekulow is absolutely correct. Even if Obama himself didn’t directly order the IRS targeting, he certainly set the tone and inspired the targeting. The targeting was clearly ideologically based, and certainly had a chilling effect on conservative groups, which undoubtedly hampered their influence in the 2012 election. And yes, ultimately the truth will eventually come out. It may not happen until the next administration, but it will happen one day.
