As the old saying goes, beware of Greeks bearing gifts; but as the new saying goes, beware even more of Republicans bearing bribes. In either case, one could get destroyed (or at least corrupted) from the inside by trusting the wrong people.

[TexasTransplant]

Because there is no difference?

[cripplecreek]

Certainly not enough.

[TexasTransplant]

Because there is no difference between the Progressives and th RINOS ... FIXED

It’s a good read, if you have time.

[cripplecreek]

The “Moderates” have moderated the GOP into a coma and are pinching the feeding tube as the democrats goose step their way to full on fascism.

At some point we have to demand that they explain why they don’t seek moderation from the party that really needs it.

[freedomfiter2]

They’re both on the same side?

[editor-surveyor]

Seriously, look for Issa to throw the IRS ‘investigation.’

He has no desire for the truth to come out, nor for Obama to be weakened.

[TexasTransplant]

I feel no need to understand or demand anything from the GOP...

They will suffer the same consequences as their Progressive Brethren.

TT

They can discuss their missed cues and transgressions hooded on the scaffolds if that is how they wish to spend their last minutes... I don’t care.

TT

[tennmountainman]

He also has no interest in strengthening The Tea Party. Quite the contrary.

Good read. I agree, why would the IRS go after the GOP Establishment? They wouldn’t. They are all big-government allies together; part of the same ruling-class team. Only the “tea party” is an actual threat to their corrupt designs. That’s why they get the target placed on their backside.

I don’t doubt for a moment that had the beltway GOP-Rino-Rove crowd caught wind of this IRS scandal early on, they would have cast a blind eye and kept mum, quietly approving of the harrassment.

Rhinos are the enemy infiltration into the GOP, which has progressed enough to politically castrate the as viable opposition to the &@$?! Socialists.

[factoryrat]

Probably because a majority of the GOPe is in on the IRS shakedown scam being perpetrated upon conservative groups. I have come to the personal conclusion that approximately 98% of the federal government is completely beyond redemption. When We The People lose faith in the government's ability to uphold and defend the US Constitution, and abide by the rule of law, politicians and government employees should become very worried about their well-being. We declared our Independence from tyrants just like the ones who occupy our federal government today, and fought wars to kick them out of our country. Is it going to come down to that? Again?

[vetvetdoug]

I will reiterate what someone else has said, the IRS didn't see any difference between the Republican establishment and the Democrats and therefore saw the Tea Party as the political danger to the status quo. This makes more sense than much of the rhetoric that is cast about.

[ansel12]

Many questions are begged. Did outside liberal groups conspire with the IRS against the Tea Party? Did Republican Establishment types conspire with the IRS to censor the Tea Party? If so, how high up did the conspiracy go inside the two major parties, both of which had something to gain with the marginalization and/or destruction of the Tea Party movement?

The Tea party never got help or a friendly ear or a public display of support from the GOPe and the power structure as this years long assault was taking place and they were under siege.

[arthurus]

Because there is no difference between the Progressives and th RINOS ..and most Tea Party pols once they sit down in DC.
