Tea Party and the like deserve IRS targeting

It may be a struggle, but try to imagine being someone at the IRS assigned with the job of auditing, your assignment places you in a position that deals with reviewing applications and filings by groups like Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS.

In your position, one thing that you become keenly aware of is that since the Citizens United case ruling there's been an explosion of activity of groups filing and applying for this special treatment as "social welfare" organizations, then you also notice that the vast majority of those groups tend to be conservative in nature, hmmmmm.

So ... you begin reviewing and scrutinizing those applications ( your job ), but the casual observer could look at your work and say you're picking on conservative groups when the fact of the matter is that they tend to dominate the application process for groups requesting special tax treatments under this designation.

Noticed how all those tea-party leaning "grassroots" activist groups were popping up like mushrooms during the battle over health care reform ? See very much of anything resembling the volume of push-back of the same ilk coming from liberal groups ?

You know the drill by now, conservatives scream foul, their protests are picked up by outlets like Newsmax, and Drudge, they make their way onto fox, and the next thing you know all the major news outlets run the story, republican politicians yap about the stuff on TV, and here we are !
