BREAKING: Lois Lerner held in contempt of Congress

Posted on by

Lois LernerThe House Oversight and Government Reform Committee officially voted Wednesday to hold former Internal Revenue Service (IRS) official Lois Lerner in contempt of Congress. The 21 to 12 vote broke down along party lines, with Republicans voting yes and Democrats voting no.

The case will now be referred to AG Eric Holder in consideration for the convention of a grand jury, or other options.  The vote was actually 231 to 187 in the House.  Can you say, again, “party lines”?

Here’s what will happen:

Nothing.

She will not be indicted, she won’t spend a microsecond in confinement.  The actions of Congress will ultimately mean nothing.  Eric Holder will ensure this.

Behind the scenes, Lois Lerner is smiling, backslapping her attorneys and knocking back a few drinks after calling Holder and confirming his inaction.

This is nothing more than Kabuki Theatre for the ignorant.

WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED

IRS - We Will Not Be SilencedCheck out this website.

Right now is your chance to be heard. The IRS has proposed new regulations that will suppress citizen groups from discussing issues and actions that our nation’s political leaders take in D.C.

We must remember, the IRS admitted to inappropriate targeting of groups because of their conservative or religious beliefs. They are now trying to write such abusive tactics into the tax code.

Your voice matters. By law, the IRS must consider each comment that is submitted. We are stronger together than we are apart.

Must Submit by February 27, 2014
Must Reference Citation: IRS REG-134417-13

Do it and do it now.  Please click on the site above, read the information completely, and weigh in.

Advocacy and honesty.  Truth trumps emotions when exposed to the light of day.

A tax attorney: Obama lies.

Posted on by

And this from a person — Cleta Mitchell — who knows from whence she speaks.

A great pull quote:

“I want to make three primary points here. First, the IRS scandal is real. It’s not pretend, it’s real. Number two, the IRS scandal is not just a bunch of bone-headed bureaucrats in some remote office contrary to what the President of the United States told the American People on Sunday. And, number 3, the IRS scandal is not over. It is continuing to this day. And, the Department of Justice Investigation is a sham. It is a nonexistent investigation.”

But imagine this: Attorney Cleta Mitchell speaks logically and cogently from the heart and, simultaneously, whilst doing this, requires not a TelePrompter nor anyone with cue cards.  She instantly acquires more veracity and believability than Barack Hussein Obama could ever hope to possess.

Obama lies once again.  And lies about lying, particularly when he LIED to the face of Bill O’Reilly.  Obama insisted: there was “not even a smidgen of corruption” regarding the IRS and the targeting of Conservative groups:

O’REILLY: You’re saying no corruption (about the IRS)?

OBAMA: No.

O’REILLY: None? No?

OBAMA: There were some — there were some bone-headed decisions…

O’REILLY: Bone-headed decisions…

OBAMA: …out of… out of a local office…

O’REILLY: But no mass corruption?

OBAMA: Not even mass corruption, not even a smidgeon of corruption, I would say.

In this day and age, it is so incredibly easy to prove anyone, any politician, a liar.  Proof exists again and again that Obama is a bald-faced liar.

Yet no one seems to care.

But I care about Benghazi.  I care about where Obama was on September 11th of 2012.  I care about where Hillary Clinton was on September 11th of 2012.

And I care when Obama lies, though too few seem to mirror this concern.

Abolish the IRS now

Posted on by

The IRS has proven, time and again, that not only cannot it be trusted in any fashion, that it spends with profligacy, that it is not accountable, that it — itself — does not have to provide any receipts for the wastrel-like and over-the-top parties it hosts for its own employees.  The arrogance of the IRS is now legion, with no end in sight.

Just this week, most recently, the IRS frakked up by exposing THOUSANDS of social security numbers to the internet for roughly 24 hours.

Repeated: insanity with no consequences whatsoever.  The IRS is proving, time and again and again that it needs to be shuttered and those oppressive employees cast to the four winds to find REAL work.

I say: abolish the IRS now.  Eliminate the IRS code, its thousands and thousands of pages that few — including the IRS — cannot consistently interpret.

Bring in a flat tax.  Set a percentile.  Create a one page form.   ___% of your gross wages = send it in.  Period.

The most logical and the most fair.  No exceptions, no exemptions.  For no one or any thing.

Ted Cruz is about to become my favorite politician — if there can actually be such a thing — via this article from The Washington Post:

Ted Cruz: ‘Abolish the IRS’

By Rachel Weiner, Published: June 3, 2013 at 5:32 pm – E-mail the writer

Hours before the House Appropriations Committee held a hearing on political targeting at the Internal Revenue Service, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) had a simple solution to the agency’s problems — get rid of it altogether.

Ted Cruz Tweet in re IRS“I think we ought to abolish the IRS and instead move to a simple flat tax where the average American can fill out taxes on postcard,” he explained in a Fox News interview over the weekend. “Put down how much you earn, put down a deduction for charitable contributions, home mortgage and how much you owe. It ought to be a simple one-page postcard, and take the agents, the bureaucracy out of Washington and limit the power of government.”

And the “necessity” for another 14,000 blood-sucking IRS agents would be null and void.

Simple and elegant.
