IRS, busted

Daily Caller has obtained an advanced copy of House Oversight and Government Reform Committee report that demonstrates malicious intent by IRS to improperly block conservative groups that they termed "icky."

Eight senior leaders in a position to prevent the targeting are identified. The report cites six major points in the report. Half we already knew but now the report says they have proof.

Here is a condensed summary:

1) They admit to spinning the issue
2) Stephen Miller almost told the truth but Nikole Flax instructed him not to.

That name is new to me. To the tower!

3) IRS definitely used a different standard on conservative groups.

Well, duh.

4) Lois Lerner expressed frustration with having to approve a lot of groups. Her colleagues assured her she wouldn't have to.

5) IRS sought outside advisor for ways to deny tax-exempt status to conservatives.

6) An email shows the IRS sought to use a new "gift tax" to target nonprofit political groups.

Something about the use of a girly, kids' word from the 50s seems to crystallize exactly the behavior and maturity of the sophisticated, hipster Lefties.

Yeah, they didn't want their ever growing, evermore intrusively overarching federal government to get cooties. Yuk. *high pitched screams*

There is no justice. Lois Lerner walks the earth still with her head.

And this report will do nothing. Like I've told you all over and over and over again. These reports mean NOTHING!!! No one will be indicted, go to jail, see prison time, be censured, fired, whatever. Nothing will happen. It's all spin all the time.
