... I urged scrutiny of Organizing for America and Enroll America, two 501(c)(4) groups with extremely close ties to the Obama administration and its efforts to "sell" Obamacare to the public. Now the Washington Post reports on unseemly, if not illegal, efforts by HHS Secretary Sebelius to put pressure on business to make contributions to these and allied groups:

"Sebelius has gone, hat in hand, to health industry officials, asking them to make large financial donations to help with the effort to implement President Obama’s landmark health-care law.

Liz - here’s one you don’t want to miss:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/obama-denounces-reported-irs-targeting-of-conservative-groups/2013/05/13/a0185644-bbdf-11e2-97d4-a479289a31f9_story.html

************************************************************

“I wrote to the IRS three times last year after hearing concerns that conservative groups were being targeted,” Sen. Orrin G. Hatch (Utah), the ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, said in a statement Monday. “In response to the first letter I sent with some of my colleagues, Steven Miller, the current Acting IRS Commissioner, responded that these groups weren’t being targeted.”

With all these people now coming forward on these scandals, wouldn’t it be amazing if an official from Hawaii came out? Or the author of the doctored BC? Man, would we be vindicated.
