The following is excerpted from the email I received from Kentucky 9/12. IMO this is no less than a call to arms:
Over and above the burdensome nature of this inquiry were the intrusive details that they were asking including schedule and content of every event, speakers names and details, and every communication.
When the IRS get the membership lists it is going to destroy all of us, one at a time.
I called my spineless congressman here in KY and told his representative that unless congress steps up and stops this now, he can pack up and go home because he is worthless.
No Tea Party I know of verifies ID of its members. So who is say 50 million John Galts are not the names of the members of the Tea Party.
The Gestapo has finally arrived. The 2nd Amendment wasn’t put into the Constitution for squirrel hunting.
Tell them to suck a lemon and if they take any action on you sue their butts off for violating the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment, since both Eric Holder and Obama can ignore subpoenas at will without consequence.
Or tell them you’ve done a “reasonable search” for the records they requested, looking in your records from the 1970’s - and if they don’t think that’s good enough then they should talk to Judge Land about it - the one who ruled that the Passport Office had done a “reasonable search” when they looked in the 1978-and-later records for a 1965 passport application...
Or heck, just make some stuff up with Mickey Mouse and Daisy Duck as your volunteers and membership, post it on the internet, and tell them to ask Judge Malihi in Georgia whether that’s good enough... and if not, again - sue them for violating the Equal Protection Clause.
What goes around comes around. The measure they give will be the measure they get.

You, too, Jim.

Is CAIR the same kind of organization for tax purposes? ACORN? Any other groups?
We need to all make a FOIA request for the letters that the IRS sent out to those groups when they requested tax-exempt status.
If we got about 1,000 Freepers to do this they might get the hint...

And some say it doesn’t matter if ogoonion and his thugs are ruling or Romney. By the time ogoonion’s 2nd term is over there won’t be an America left for a chance to elect a conservative to our liking EVER AGAIN.
No matter WHO is running against ogoonion, he will have to be the *it* guy to stand between irreversible obama thugocracy and the Constitution — and NO 3RD parties which is a 100% vote for the ogoonion communist agitator.
This is overblown. The IRS is very far behind on applications for nonprofit status. They are currently assigning apps received in July 2011. I have done many applications and they always ask for additional information. It hardly matters how complete the application is originally.
taking into account this, _and_ some of the other things happening this year - like the Catholics being told that they have to pay for contraceptives — what interests me is that these things are happening in an election year. .... they are very bold and they think that Obama will be re-elected? It really doesn’t bode well. I don’t mean to sound depressing! ....maybe a “conspiracy”! ... In other words he thinks he’ll be re-elected because they think they can get the votes they need through various kinds of fraud etc.——??
Interesting, too, that they apparently don’t like things that have the word “freedom” in them! Reminds me of a James Thurber story.
when the IRS asks about me, I have had this name for a real long time now. It was first given to me by a cat named Shakespeare. Apparently inspiration struck one night as he was nursing a mug of ale. As he told me later, he Ol’ Lady was on the rag . . . again . . . and the idea for a new tale formed in his head.

Soros loves ‘the Chicago way’, and now he has a bassturd boy to do his bidding through the little czarist regime. America has fallen and it can’t get up.
