It's a fairly straightforward request for correspondence between Democrat members of Congress, such as unindicted co-conspirators Sen. Carl Levin and Rep. Elijah Cummings. Levin and Cummings are just the tip of the iceberg. These FOIA requests are going to unveil a massive trove of emails that show Democrat politicians blatantly using the IRS as a political weapon to take down conservative groups before the 2012 election. The emails recently unveiled by Judicial Watch show Levin picking targets for IRS scrutiny and slow-walking like Lyndon Johnson selecting Vietnam bombing targets. The response from the IRS Tax Exempt Organizations division included assurances that their procedures were "flexible" enough to harass the hell out of whatever political targets Levin fed them.
Try to imagine the media reaction if it was a year after a Republican Administration's IRS harassed and intimidated left-wing civil rights and environmental groups during a presidential election, and mysteriously ended up auditing a good 10 percent of their donors....

Carl is running for the hills. He sees a select committee appearance in his future.
The ‘RATS are keeping their smidgens well hidden from the American little people. To hell with the Americans. This is commie ‘RAT country now.
I bet there will be citizens arrests where the interrogations will get answers very quickly if there are not full disclosuers from the regime.
I considered LBJ and his administration crooked but they were amateurs compared to this 0bama criminal administration and the enemedia back them to the hilt.
Levin and Elijah should be in a federal slammer along with many others too numerous to list..
There isn’t a smidgen of corruption here.
There is a flock of smidgens.
The smidgens have come home to roost!
the House needs to vote to de-fund the IRS effective immediately, this hour. Send everyone home, 5 minutes to clear the building, and then send in the IG teams. And when the IG is done with the IRS, send them to the EPA and right on down the alphabet. There’s more than one way to skin a snake.
Of jail cell !
Especially I expect citizen arrest of IRS if there is suspicion of conservative targeting. Citizen arrest and interrogation tactics that don’t exceed the .gov sniper limits.
So uh....why didn’t Bush do that on day 1 of his second administration?
When he had the entire government locked up?
When we know that, we’ll know why there isn’t a snowballs chance in hell that they will do something now.
Big surprise there. They will get away with it too, unfortunately. The Pubbies don't have the stones to do anything about it. I could say more about what I think, but I won't.
Why wouldn’t they stonewall? There have been no consequence thus far. Thank you John Boehner.
