Lois Lerner's 'Partners' (NASCO - the National Association of State Charity Officials)
American Thinker ^ | 9/25/15 | Mark J. Fitzgibbons

**SNIP**

To know NASCO is to understand why Mr. Jones’ 2007 letter to Lois Lerner, in which he discusses a “sentiment” for charities to become more transparent, is so typical of NASCO’s hypocrisy about transparency, honesty and ethics. Their annual conference was once completely closed off from representatives of nonprofit organizations because NASCO did not like being criticized for their questionable and overbearing tactics. Indeed, in his 2007 letter to Ms. Lerner, Jones criticizes “’push back’ from the nonprofit sector.” These bureaucrats do not like criticism from those they regulate, and they are effective at chastening their critics.

Jones also cites a concern that charities are not perceived by enough people as “honest and ethical.” The irony of this being raised in a letter to NASCO’s “partner” Lois Lerner should not be lost on anyone. Meanwhile, Gallup reports this month that half of all Americans continue to see government as “an immediate threat” to freedom and rights, and 75 percent perceive corruption in government as widespread. NASCO assuredly won’t be addressing illegalities and corruption of its own members and “partners” at its conference.

I tend to buy the 75% if not more as to overspending and even swindling.

UCANSEE2 :" Because she did exactly what her ‘bosses’ wanted her to do. "

And no one in the Department of "Just-Us" is willing to prosecute ,... at this time.
Better they should chase affter Volkswagon (for violating EPA regulations) than to prosecute liars and frauds in this administration.
So they think ..
