Targeting the IRS: It's time for the game to start tracking the hunters
American Thinker ^ | 02/07/2014 | By Jonathon Moseley

What should conservatives do next about the Orwellian intimidation of political opponents using the IRS? Here is a partial action plan.

Lawyers for targeted tea party groups are hurling marshmallows at one of the most shocking abuses of power in our nation's entire history. Conservative groups and their lawyers are only stating the obvious in bland, vanilla talking points.

What we are missing with many Obama scandals is a Larry Klayman, the former head of Judicial Watch. How is it that other lawyers have learned nothing from Klayman's example of prying stunning revelation after revelation out of the Clinton Administration? They only have to copy Klayman's game plan. Klayman was so powerful that "The West Wing" series created a character based on him.

Whereas James O'Keefe has inspired an army of imitators in video exposés, there is still only one overworked Larry Klayman. A "lawsuit" is not a dress which a made-for-TV lawyer buys at Nordstrom's before going before the cameras.

The rampant corruption of the Obama Administration over the IRS scandal for targeting conservatives for their political beliefs is there to be exploited. Richard Nixon's use of the IRS to target political enemies was one of the Articles of Impeachment drawn up to prosecute Nixon before the U.S. Congress. Faced with those and other charges, Nixon resigned instead of trying to defend his actions. How could we possibly fail today?

Yet begging the IRS to investigate itself and groveling to get the IRS to reveal information is what we are currently reduced to. Begging is not the solution for getting serious action.

For the good of the entire country, Catherine Englebrecht, the National Organization for Marriage, or Christine O'Donnell need to file a "RICO" lawsuit (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization law).

We should be surrounding their buildings and daring them to come out.

All traitors in my book.

This is disappointing. From the title I thought we were going in a different direction.

Maybe someday.

Catherine Englebrecht filed an ethics complaint against Cummings .... that’s a start, even though it isn’t the IRS. These Leftist thugs need a taste of their own medicine. She’s a courageous woman .... John the Weeper & Mitch the *itch could take lessons in courage from this woman. Government governs with the consent of the people .... consent needs to be withdrawn when there is destructive, illegal behavior like that demonstrated by the IRS & Obama & his administration.

What’s the point of pring revelation after stunning revelation out of an administration if the complicit
media whores cover it up so the average sheeple never
hears about it.

What’s the point of going ballistic on the abusers in
court when the judiciary that hears cases, decides on
them and routinely dismisses the ones they don’t like
WITH PREJUDICE are owned lock stock and rotten barrel
by the criminals they should be incarcerating.

The ONLY method of confronting evil corrupt power mad
abusers in bureaucracy is with a torch a rope and a
convenient lamppost.

Maybe one day IRS employees will exhibit the "thousand yard stare?"

We need not get that far before everyone realizes we have gone too far. Otherwise, the situation on the ground will become untenable...for everyone...
