Title: Liberal and progressive groups targeted by the IRS
Post by srinath on 06/25/13 at 12:17:04

Washington (CNN) -- The Internal Revenue Service targeted liberal groups as well as conservatives seeking tax-exempt status, a Democratic congressman charged on Monday after the agency acknowledged the inappropriate practice continued until last month.

Rep. Sander Levin said the term "progressives" was included on IRS screening lists of applicants for tax-exempt status made available to Congress on Monday.

It was the first confirmation that the "Be on the Lookout" or BOLO lists used criteria targeting liberal groups after an inspector general's report made public last month said the IRS had used words such as "tea party" to determine possible extra scrutiny.

Earlier, the first substantive review of the controversy by the IRS showed the agency used multiple lists of inappropriate criteria in assessing tax-exempt applications up until this month, more than a year later than previously revealed.

Looking for the IRS refunds of 43 million to 23,000 people in 1 atlanta address - nothing turned up in that search ... but this did ...

So not only TEA was targeted, so was everyone who sounded political in a social welfare application.

Cool.

It didn't come out cos republicans found something and started screaming about it ... and that was all we heard ... the republican appointed head of the agency quit and the republican media was intent on crucifying Obama for it. That was all the news we heard.

REPUBLICAN MEDIA??? Oh, do tell about this Republican media that can shout down the combined market share of AP, Reuters, MSN, NBC, ABC, NPR, PBS, Google, NYT, LAT, Huffpo, CBS, and most of the national newspapers, magazines and digital media. I have been looking for such a powerful source of truth for a long time and can't believe I have missed it. I must know the name of this all powerful Republican controlled news outlet!!!

Soo weak, not even a real answer, just a dodge to Republican Media.  ;D Seriously, though, why are we just hearning about this now. Obama runs everything with an iron fist and the fanboy/fangirl army would do anything for him, why wouldn't the legions of Obama lovers not immediately present this info when this whole thing started? They faked a reason for letting Ambassador Stevens die for Obama's re-election bit, this seems like a much easier lie to foist on us so why wait soo long if it is legit?

Republican media - easy, Faux and all the ones you claim are liberal - CBS ? WTF ... that's hard core republican media. They air nothing but 3 hours of Rush, followed by 3 hours of Hannity followed by some talking heads who parrot those 2 as it were gospel.

There is a lot of republican media ... seriously you need to wake up ... They overwhelm the rest of the public media.

Let me see if I can explain this to the comprehension challenged.
AP and Reuters are reporting services. I used to work for a subsidiary of Reuters, and I still deal with data from reuters on the financial news side. As hardcore financial as they come. I would say they are republican, however I will just say they just report news, you'd find news from every corner of the world on API and Reuters. Floods in assam, to whale beachings in madagascar ...

MSN and NBC are not 2 - MSNBC and it is liberal.
ABC - ABC is owned by Disney so I would say they would be the most conservative of the list. Nice of you to "forget" faux, but I wont.

Nice - you list NPR and PBS as liberal, those 2 are actually very centric. Which you would hate, cos they're liberal to you. Everyone in the world recognizes these 2 as centrist.

Last I checked, Google was a search engine, and the owners of google are huge republican contributors.

Nice of you to leave out Wall street journal - as conservative as they come. Its a mouth piece for Rupert Murdock, and it was even before he bought it.
LAT ? Latina times ? Conservative, with the republicans handing over citizenship its going to be all about republicans on that.
HuffPO - Blog - who cares.

CBS - yes with 20 hours of Hannity, Rush and other talking heads, hardcore conservative.

You forgot the biggie - Faux News - enuff said.

You can easily see Republican media overwhelms the airwaves.
Of course I didn't say conservative media ... there aint nothing conservative in this whole thread.
There is plenty ... breitbart.com and several others, just blogs and talking heads ...


However you are yet to show me a credible bit of news about the IRS refunds to 1 address in atlanta.

Cool.

I think the people who were looking for it had no time to look for it cos they had to listen to and respond to the screeching form the republicans ...

I see that all the time ... some fool is asking for an update every 5 seconds ...
It takes me 3 hours to do a 5 minute job.
When my phone battery dies ... I finish the job in 3 min and send out an email saying its done.
Multiply that times 1000, cos they have to fly to whatever hell hole the screaming is occouring ...

Sorry a lot of things turn up late cos the screaming starts and it further delays. Have you ever tried to find a toy a child is looking for ... only to find in in seconds once the screaming stops.

Ok, time to cut to the chase. There was no targetting of liberal or progressive groups. Didn't happen - period!!

http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2013/06/05/193100/liberal-groups-say-they-dont-see.html

http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2013/05/paul-ryan-nails-irs-commissioner-who-admits-progressive-groups-were-not-targeted-by-irs-video/

Liberals say they weren't targeted, IRS says on conservative groups targed, Inspector General report says liberals weren't targeted, IRS appologizes for targeting only conservative groups and giving liberals a free pass. Any other claim is pure fantasy.

"A November 2010 version of the list obtained by National Review Online, however, suggests that while the list did contain the word “progressive,” screeners were in fact instructed to treat “progressive” groups differently from “tea party” groups. Whereas screeners were merely alerted that a designation of 501(c)(3) status “may not be appropriate” for applications containing the word ”progressive” – 501(c)(3) organizations are prohibited from conducting any political activities – they were told to send those of tea-party groups off IRS higher-ups for further scrutiny.  That means the applications of progressive groups could be approved on the spot by line agents, while those of tea-party groups could not. Furthermore, the November 2010 list noted that tea-party cases were “currently being coordinated with EOT,” which stands for Exempt Organizations Technical, a group of tax lawyers in Washington, D.C. Those of progressive groups were not."

Twelve different IRS units nationwide targeted conservatives

Posted By Patrick Howley On 9:21 AM 06/25/2013 In Politics | No Comments

Twelve different groups within the IRS targeted conservative organizations applying for tax-exempt nonprofit status, according to the attorneys representing tea party plaintiffs in a class-action lawsuit against the IRS.

The revelation disproves the suggestion by a top congressional Democrat that only one IRS group was responsible for scrutinizing tea party and conservative applications.

Group 7821, Group 7822, Group 7823, Group 7824, Group 7827, Group 7828, Group 7829, Group 7830, Group 7838, EOG-7887, and EOG-7888, and the Tax Exempt and Government Entities Division in Washington, D.C. all targeted conservative groups between 2010 and 2012, according to documentation compiled by the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), which has filed a class-action suit against the IRS.

Rep. Elijah Cummings, the top Democrat on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee investigating the IRS targeting scandal, previously suggested that tea party applications were sent only to Group 7822 for scrutiny. Cummings released transcripts of an interview his staff conducted with John Shafer, an employee of the Cincinnati IRS office, who claimed that he sent tea party applications specifically to Group 7822.

“Based upon everything I’ve seen the case is solved,” Cummings said on CNN during a June 9 interview.

The ACLJ disagrees.

“[John] Shafer was just one individual describing his experience interacting with one group [Group 7822]. If he was only interacting with one group then his involvement in this process was minimal,” ACLJ senior counsel David French told The Daily Caller.

“Group 7822 was pinpointed because of the release from Rep. Cummings, which created the impression that there were one or two agents that referred to a single group,” French said. “In fact we are dealing with multiple IRS offices across the nation that were targeting conservative groups, and eleven different IRS groups beside Group 7822, including the Tax Exempt and Government Entities Division in Washington. Each of these groups  was working on tea party and conservative cases.”

“After Rep. Cummings’ statement, the media fixated on Group 7822 as the patient zero of the outbreak when the reality is it was many groups, so the IRS hierarchy is much more implicated,” French said.

Between 2010 and 2012, the IRS sent letters to tea party applicants across the country demanding more information before their tax-exempt applications could be approved. On the upper left-hand corner of these letters, the IRS identified the working group within the agency requesting the information. Twelve different groups appeared on these letters, according to French.

The El Monte, California IRS office, for instance, sent a letter requesting additional information to Oklahoma City Patriots in Action, dated February 9, 2012,  which listed the IRS group EOG-7887 in the upper left-hand corner.


“We’re going to find out the differences between these IRS groups in litigation,” French said. “Which personnel were in each group? Was there overlap in personnel?”

It remains unclear whether these IRS groups existed prior to the targeting. It is also unclear whether these groups each had their own physical locations, according to French.

Despite claims by IRS officials that the targeting occurred only in the agency’s Cincinnati office, the ACLJ compiled letters proving that IRS offices in Washington, D.C. and the California cities of El Monte and Laguna Niguel also targeted conservatives. The Daily Caller has also reported that the agency’s Baltimore and Chicago offices engaged in the improper targeting.

Cincinnati-based IRS employee Elizabeth Hofacre told congressional investigators that Washington-based IRS lawyer Carter Hull oversaw her office’s targeting, and even instructed her on how to demand additional information from tea party groups. “I was essentially a front person, because I had no autonomy or no authority to act on [applications] without Carter Hull’s influence or input,” Hofacre said.

“We know that the Tax Exempt and Government Entities Division in Washington, D.C. was involved, and that’s where Carter Hull and Lois Lerner were working. We have 14 letters directly from Lois Lerner,” French said. “When Lois Lerner said on May 10 that this was just a few agents in Cincinnati, we were literally holding in our hands 14 letters that she wrote to conservative groups.”

The IRS did not immediately return a request for comment.

Yes, for those who have difficulty with analytical and logical thinking, everything was pretty much settled and everything that happened has come out. Therefore all this extra crap is just that, crap, made up after the fact. This would have come out long ago were it true and it just isn't.

And, sorry to break it to you but Right Wing papers and blogs are all that can be trusted nowadays, along with foreign news outlets who do not suffer from Obama Fanboy/girl syndrome, at least not anymore.

This whole "liberals were targeted too" trope is just smoke and mirrors over two years too late.

Can't help but notice you are ignoring large groups of facts to make your point. I will post this bit a second time to help you remember:

"A November 2010 version of the list obtained by National Review Online, however, suggests that while the list did contain the word “progressive,” screeners were in fact instructed to treat “progressive” groups differently from “tea party” groups. Whereas screeners were merely alerted that a designation of 501(c)(3) status “may not be appropriate” for applications containing the word ”progressive” – 501(c)(3) organizations are prohibited from conducting any political activities – they were told to send those of tea-party groups off IRS higher-ups for further scrutiny.  That means the applications of progressive groups could be approved on the spot by line agents, while those of tea-party groups could not. Furthermore, the November 2010 list noted that tea-party cases were “currently being coordinated with EOT,” which stands for Exempt Organizations Technical, a group of tax lawyers in Washington, D.C. Those of progressive groups were not."

Where are all the affected liberal groups then? You still haven't answered how this is all coming out now, AFTER the investigation and Inspector General's report. I also notice how you gloss over treatment of the different groups. If liberal groups were singled out then it was probably to fast-track their approval before the election to help Obama or provide them with private data from conservative applications.

Fact #2 - Please adress this item as well:

Furthermore, the November 2010 list noted that tea-party cases were “currently being coordinated with EOT,” which stands for Exempt Organizations Technical, a group of tax lawyers in Washington, D.C. Those of progressive groups were not."

You can make all the excuses you want, bury your head in the sand, dodge, deflect, evade, whatever. You need to understand that shooting the messenger and ignoring the message isn't winning you any points. I have debunked everything you have linked and posted and all you can say in reply is Rosanne is fat and you only will listen tot he true if it is spoon fed to you by Obama approved media. I'm not even sure why you keep trying to change the subject here because I am going to keep bringing you back on topic.

Which is if any of this were true it would have come out years ago. Where are the liberal "victims" of the profiling? Why is it only conservative groups? It's plain to see no matter how much you muddy the waters.

I don't think you know what the word "prove" means. On a side note, that clears up a lot of things.

You are claiming that Liberal and Progressive groups got the excat same treatment as conservative groups. That I have debunked so if you continue to push that liberal talking point then you are going to have to prove it with more than just "I don't like the people who are reporting the news" trope you have adopted. You need to get out of your echo chamber once in a while.

You've "debunked" it via a 2010 blog post on National Review ?
Is that your standard for "debunking" ?

OK maybe Motherjones.com - lets see -
http://www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2013/06/reports-says-irs-approved-tax-exempt-status-twice-many-conservative-groups-libera

OK there -
Here's an interesting tidbit from the newsletter Tax Notes. As we all know by now, the IRS applies extra scrutiny to a group applying for tax-exempt status if it suspects the group is political in nature. In 2010, they decided that having "tea party" in a group's name was sufficient to raise a red flag.

The Inspector General's report about this included an audit of 298 groups that had been given special scrutiny. Of these, 96 had "tea party," "patriots," or "9-12 project" in their names. But that's all we know. We have no idea how many of the 298 groups were liberal and how many were conservative, because the IRS doesn't release the name of groups that have applied for tax-exempt status.

However, the IRS does publish the names of groups that have received special scrutiny and been approved for tax-exempt status. They recently released a list of 176 organizations that have been approved since 2010, so Martin Sullivan checked each one to figure out if it was liberal or conservative. Here's what he found:

   122 conservative
   48 liberal/nonconservative
   6 unknown

This doesn't tell us anything definitive about the entire set of groups that got special scrutiny. If the whole set is similar to the approved set, then about two-thirds were conservative and one-third liberal—most likely because of the boom in new tea party groups in 2010. But that's just a guess.

One thing isn't a guess, however: Two-thirds of the groups who were approved for tax-exempt status were conservative. If the IRS was on a partisan witch hunt against conservative groups, that's sure an odd way of showing it, isn't it?


Yea there ... got it, proved and debunked ...

I didn't know I had to raise my level of proof to National Review standards man ... but there it is. No national papers have got it ... so it must via your example of proof it must be the best. The MSM is asleep.

Cool.

Ok, giving you the benefit of the doubt I went though this last night and it still doesn't address any of the core issues. I'm not sure how many times I have to go over the same thing. There was a two year timespan in which all conservative groups were held up while liberal groups sailed through. There is no other way to put it, conservative groups got all the scrutiny and liberal groups sailed through. The IRS is completely politicized for Obama and the evidence proves it.

So, no, liberal and progressive groups were not targeted and definitely not scrutinzed like the conservative groups were. Debunked!!!

You still haven't addressed why no conservative groups got approved for two years while liberals groups went through.

First off, no it doesn't, it's just a name. And second, thank you for admitting that the leftists in the IRS saw these names as a threat to Dear Leader Obama and targeted them for excessive scrutiny that liberal groups didn't encounter.

No it isn't and thank you again for admitting what the rest of us already know. Of course groups with progressive and Obama in the name sailed right through the process, which you also don't deny.

I think you are the only one that thinks it is.

And more evidence, (and don't be fooled by the link verbiage - this is an Associated Press article - Associated Press Writer Alan Fram contributed to this report.), that demonstrates that liberal groups were not targeted like conservative groups were.

Hopefully you still agree that Associated Press is suitable media. Maybe even though the media are all saying the same thing that you will attribute more truth to the AP's reiteration of the exact same reports by other media.

WASHINGTON -- A government inspector who detailed the U.S. federal tax agency's tough treatment of conservative groups says he has no evidence that liberal groups were similarly targeted, according to a letter obtained by The Associated Press on Thursday.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Democrats are unhappy that newly revealed Internal Revenue Service documents show the agency screened for progressive groups seeking tax-exempt status, not just the tea party organizations for which the IRS was already under fire.

Read the whole article at that link - and better yet, click on the "AP" logo and you are taken to associated press's site with 1000's of news feeds - including Nik Wallenda walking the tight rope across the colorado canyon and James Gandolfini's funeral articles on the right. I deal with Reuters financial data all day. Dont kid me with fake AP, I can also show you fake reuters crap ...

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Democrats are unhappy that newly revealed Internal Revenue Service documents show the agency screened for progressive groups seeking tax-exempt status, not just the tea party organizations for which the IRS was already under fire.

Read the whole article at that link - and better yet, click on the "AP" logo and you are taken to associated press's site with 1000's of news feeds - including Nik Wallenda walking the tight rope across the colorado canyon and James Gandolfini's funeral articles on the right. I deal with Reuters financial data all day. Dont kid me with fake AP, I can also show you fake reuters crap ...  

This is the real AP - yours is a fake.

Stop digging - you're already 6 ft under.
And look this article is on yahoo - not on gopusa.com.

And its bunked again ... booya ...

Cool.

Screened, the operative word being screened. 100% of conservative groups were screened and I've seen 30% batted about for liberal groups. BUT, conservative groups were targeted in that their applications were held up and one point two years went by without an approval for a conservative group while liberal groups sailed through.

This play on words you are doing is not working, face it, liberal and progressive groups went easily through the process while conservative groups were targeted. You admitted it yourself, Tea = political so they all got help up. Liberal = good so, of course, those all went through.

You won't even accept Associated Press now  :o

This is literally yesterday's news:

An Exerpt:

Democrats also want to know why the Treasury Department inspector general who investigated IRS targeting of conservative groups didn't mention that terms like "Progressives" and "Healthcare legislation" were on the same lists agency workers used to find applications to review closely.

Todays news - Inspector General responds with they didn't target liberals groups. You saw the response letter to Democrats.

Seriously, how long are you going to beat a dead horse. Conservative groups were targeted, liberals weren't. You should be happy the lengths to which your side will go to win. Isn't that in the Saul Alinsky handbook?

Conservatives were targeted ahead of the election and liberals weren't, it is a fact. The IRS admitted to it, they appologized for it and they are being sued for it. Maybe it isn't the people here you need to convince but those who confessed and appologized for it and convince THEM to recant and take back the appology.

From our audit work, we did not find evidence that the criteria you
identified, labeled "Progressives," were used by the IRS to select potential political
cases during the 2010 to 2012 timeframe we audited. The "Progressives" criteria
appeared on a section of the "Be On the Look Out" (BOLO) spreadsheet labeled
"Historical," and, unlike other BOLO entries, did not include instructions on how to refer
cases that met the criteria. While we have multiple sources of information corroborating
the use of Tea Party and other related criteria we described in our report, including
employee interviews, e-mails, and other documents, we found no indication in any of
these other materials that "Progressives" was a term used to refer cases for scrutiny for
political campaign intervention.

Ooooo Thank You, you brought up Russell George - for the life of me I was trying to remember the dude's name -

Once again ... a Republican nominee promptly turns around and buries the organisation he is a "Watchdog" for to blame for the loss in the election -

J. Russell George
Treasury Inspector General for Tax
Administration
Following his nomination by President George W. Bush, the
United States Senate confirmed J. Russell George in November 2004, as the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration. Prior to assuming this role, Mr. George served as the Inspector General of the Corporation for National and Community Service, having been nominated to that position by
President Bush and confirmed by the Senate in 2002.

And you still need to read the actual testimony of Russell George in its entireity, and not what Faux news has exerpted ... because the entire report - well it says something else. Not what Faux news has decided it says.

That testimony is here -
http://waysandmeans.house.gov/uploadedfiles/george_testimony.pdf

That says in one of its conclusions -

[ch61623] In early Calendar Year 2010, according to an IRS Determinations Unit specialist, the IRS began searching for applications with “Tea Party,” “Patriots,” or “9/12” in the organization’s name as well as other “political-sounding” names (hereinafter referred to as potential political cases).

Gee political sounding names ... huh ... in a non political 501c application ... imagine that.

You cant take bits and pieces of that and parrot what Faux news says and say "Debunked" over and over again.

Cool.

I especially love how you imply that the IG somehow backstabbed the organization he is a "watchdog" for, as if he is some sort of traitor or snitch. Like the Inspector General should turn a blind eye to corruption in a government organization.

Yup The other IRS's republican nominee Douglas Shulman also blamed the IRS for RMoney's loss in the election ... gee what a surprise.

In fact that was what we started out with when started arguning about this a month ago.

If it had been say the transportation department with a Bush appointee then we'd be hearing stories about how there were detours placed in front of the RMoney bus and he had been slowed down to get to the fake charity supplies he was sendiong to Sandy victims. Promptly after that idea gets floated, the republican head of the dept of transportation will say, yes "RMoney bus had been targeted ... so RMoney lost".

Yea ... so says you ... I dont gotta prove nothing.
Shulman was a bush appointee ... enough said.

This whole thing is a sorry apology for RMoney's loss from the republican establishment, after the republicans rail roaded Ron Paul. Its like they're telling their base ... we put the best guy on the planet RMoney on the ballot, and we were killed by the IRS ...

Well, I've proved my case, that liberal and progressive groups weren't targeted like Conservative groups were. Now, it's your turn to prove any of that stuff about Shulman only apologizing because he was a Bush appointee. Enjoy!!!


Yea ... so says you ...[/quote]

No, so says the evidence I have provided, feel free to provide any sustantive rebuttal, if you can.

More like nothing said, what does that have to do with anything?

This whole thing is a sorry apology for RMoney's loss from the republican establishment, after the republicans rail roaded Ron Paul. Its like they're telling their base ... we put the best guy on the planet RMoney on the ballot, and we were killed by the IRS ...

Dane, you have won nothing and you have proved nothing in this debate (or any or any other debate here).. Your post's are laughable e.g. the "liberal media", and your mind is as closed as a steel trap. You are not subject to facts, and you are unacquainted with reality. I only respond to your posts because it's amusing to read your responses...kind of like "the joke of the day" in the newspapers.

...(Cue webster to chime in about now with some more name calling.)

The IG's report clearly states that no liberal groups were targeted like conservatives were, which is the title of this threat (that I have thoroughly debunked with hard evidence.) Now, if you want to change the subject and start arguing a different point about political motive then why not start another thread and present your case there?

Again, liberal and progressive groups were not targeted like conservative groups were!! FACT!!  :)
