WaPo: IRS apologizes for inappropriately targeting conservative political groups in 2012 election

So will the IRS fast track the C4 classification of  most those groups? I think its highly unlikely with 2014 looming.

 

 

 

Prediction:

 

In the not too distant future, the media will explain in a positive way, why State Health exchanges are also pushing people to register as Democrats?

Treasury Inspector General Blocked IRS From Releasing Documents That Show Agency Targeted Progressive Groups

 

 

The Inspector General conducting the investigation into the Internal Revenue Services’ improper targeting of conservative groups applying for 501 ©(4) status is preventing the agency from turning over documents showing that progressive organizations were similarly subject to additional scrutiny, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee said on Wednesday.

 

The allegations come as J. Russell George, the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA), prepares to explain why he never informed Congress that investigators found “no indication that pulling these selected applications was politically motivated” or that progressive groups were also targeted.

 

George will testify before the Committee on Thursday and will undoubtedly face questions about why he “personally intervened to block the IRS from turning over documents relating to progressive or left-leaning groups that received treatment similar to Tea Party applicants for tax exempt status,” the Committee’s minority staff said in a press release issued today.
