Jim McDermott (D-WA) Blames Conservatives

But it doesn’t matter if these organizations (unquestionably) were VERY political, and therefore WERE TO BLAME themselves for what the IRS did to them. How STUPID is this? It’s wrong because they ONLY “went after” those on the RIGHT! He says Republicans are “looking for a scandal.” So what? If they were looking for one, they certainly FOUND one. Since when is the fact of them LOOKING for a scandal make them FINDING one wrong?

A PETITION DEMONSTRATING STUPID: I’m ashamed of my state. In Colorado, they passed a petition CONGRATULATING the IRS for harassing right-wing organizations and actually got a lot of signatures. They might have named the petition, ”A PETITION SHOWING YOUR OWN STUPIDITY.” Talk about “low-information voters!” (Rush Limbaugh put that into the language. I call them “Those who don’t pay attention.”) I can’t imagine being so ill informed as to sign that petition. But then, I pay attention.

LAWMAKERS FACE RECALL VOTE: In Colorado, all the legislators who voted FOR the new tight gun control laws are facing a recall vote. They needed something like 1700 signatures to force it (who created that level of difficulty). They came up with TWICE as many as needed. This tends to restore my respect for MOST Colorado voters.

LOIS DEMANDED HE GET OUT OF POLITICS: The routine actions of the IRS in using their position to hurt people who they considered opponents has been going on a lot longer than when they harassed the Tea Parties. Lois Lerner (then in charge of designating tax exempt organizations) demanded that the opponent of Chuck Schumer in an election “get out of politics” and “stay out as long as he lives” and they’ll drop the tax investigation they started into him (and she refused to put it in writing). Schumer was elected while the IRS kept his opponent busy (and they were never able to get anything against his opponent) and is STILL in Congress. This is one way Democrats get elected and stay in power; and not just recently.

TELL HIM TO “GO TO HELL!” John Kerry (current Sec. Of state) says Obama will sign the U. N. Arms Treaty. For him so sign that treaty is UNCONSTITUTIONAL because it VIOLATES our Constitution in its very face. If ANYBODY comes to my house wishing to “enforce” ANY provision in that treaty, I will tell him to “stick it up his tailpipe, sideways.” The United Nations can “bend over forward” and take what comes, as far as I’m concerned.

“FORGOTTEN YOUR PLACE”: The people targeted by the IRS are now testifying before Congress about their treatment by the IRS when they applied for tax-exempt status. They’re telling the government that it has “forgotten its place” as our EMPLOYEES, not our “ruler.” That seems to be a problem for politicians: they think they are “the boss” while it is WE who ARE “the boss.” They have TRULY “forgotten their place.”
