IRS Told Pro-Life Organization It Had to Promote Abortion

The IRS and the Obama administration are coming under fire for targeting conservative groups — but a new report indicates at least one pro-life group faced discrimination as well.

The Internal Revenue Service has issued an apology to conservative groups that it targeted in the lead up to the 2012 presidential election. The move is seen by many conservatives as the Obama administration doing post-election damage control after infringing on the rights of citizens groups.

But a new WorldNetDaily report has more on how the federal agency targeted pro-lifers:

It’s beginning to seem that we’ve been transported back in time to Lenin’s Russia; this is greatly reminiscent of the NKVD.

I do not believe Obama is behind each of the incidences.

He may be involved in some, maybe not - but to my point: our Government is already filled with leftists with a firm ideology on the role of Government and its role in social engineering. they are anti-conservative and have the will to act on their own without direction.

It is a positive feedback loop of Government worker self-interest and ideology. The bigger more activist Government becomes, the more leftists find a role in it and the more Government becomes ideologically one-sided.

If he wasn’t involved, he certainly could come out and say the IRS acted stupidly.

“I do not believe Obama is behind each of the incidences”

On the mark, they knew whom they were hiring. A nod and a wink along with a free copy of Alinskys “Rules for Radicals". At that point everything was in place.

"show drops"

I believe you mean the Barack Obama Show? I'd like to see that show cancelled.

Which is precisely why this issue has greater attention than Benghazi. Obama is liable for Benghazi, not the AP issue. The AP issue is a diversion where Obama can't get hurt.

criminals sometimes apologize for their crimes but they still face prosecution and if convicted, they do jail time. These people at the IRS, State Department, DOJ and the WH that have committed crimes under the color of their authority against the people of the US are no different. They are common criminals and need to be dealt with according to the law.

I think the IRS functioned as Obama's goon squad - they were after ALL his political enemies...

And a victim objected they dubbed you 'a crazy'... black helicopter tin foil person... Like Clinton did with Monica BEFORE the blue dress ... Clinton said Monica and her mother were mentally unstable... and he was trying to 'minister to her'... Turned out he was using the slander of 'mental illness' to control his victim.

Same dirty trick used on Conservatives by Obama and his goons.... even having their trolls push their straw-man images... Obama and his goons are Nixon - only much worse.

That's a good point. Unfortunately though, the important issue is the growing power of the Federal Bureaucracy, and the fact that most Government bureaucrats holding that power are ideologically leftist. This has effected, and will increasingly effect everything every American does.

I believe Obama to be behind every one of these abuses and power grabs.
Believing Obama didn’t know about or instigate this is as naïve as believing Tonya Harding didn’t instigate the attack on Nancy Kerrigan prior to the 1994 Olympics.

LOL!! Do you think if Sarah or Newt where in the WH - the IRS would feel empowered to do this?

Think - the fish rots from the head. It has his stinky initials/BO on ALL of it.

Even if Sarah were in the White House, the Federal bureaucracy would still be ideologically leftist - and most would hate her and probably try to hinder her decisions. I agree that fewer would misbehave, but my point is, the ideology of the majority of Federal workers, especially in DC but in other regional offices as well, is already established. The environment under Obama is indeed more permissive, but they do not need direction from above to act on their ideology.

That's not the point, we will always have scum. And I don't even suggest Sarah will be in the WH. But for you to even suggest the boy isn't responsible for this in EVERY way is being way too naive/childlike or a lib yourself.

Exactly. I yammered away on several threads yesterday...look to the federal unions and their undying loyalty to get 0bama elected in both 2008 & 2012. No order ever needed to emanate from the administration, because the 'regime' was on the case.

It’s a good thing I’ve not received such nonsense from the IRS....

They would not like my response.

“Because you are demanding behavior contrary to nature, I have a related suggestion for you....”

You are mostly correct despite the rancorous post made after yours. Government is largely populated by college graduates with degrees in LGBT Studies, The History of Women Pearl Divers, Homosexuality in Incan Legend and other such nonsense and are indoctrinated lefties. Obama encourages their behavior and Palin would discourage it. To what extent Obama actually participated is yet to be determined.
