Caddell said Sunday on Fox News that the reason Republican
leadership hasn’t pushed for a high level investigation of the IRS for
targeting the Tea Party is because they want the IRS to go after the
Tea Party:
When you have 71 percent
who want an investigation, 64 percent who believe it is a sign of
corruption including nearly a majority of Democrats, the reason is the
establishment Republicans want the IRS to go after the Tea Party. Got
it? They want them to go after the Tea Party because the Tea Parties
are an outside threat to their power hold. And I’m telling you the
lobbying consulting class of the Republican Party or Republican
leadership who have been attacking the Tea Party and alienating them,
they want the IRS to do this!
What other explanation is there for the Republican majority to be
sitting on its hands?
I trust the Tea Party Activists to pay the taxes if a corrupt IRS forces them to Then I look forward to the 2016 "Tea Party Tax Reimbursement Hollywood and Media Surtax Act"
ReplyDeletePlus I have no doubt that the corrupt congressional Republicans have horrible tax evasion problems, and have already been contacted by a friendly IRS agent hinting of trouble to come if any investigation is pressed. Am I paranoid? Wrong question. Am I paranoid enough.
Fred is right on this. We conservatives can agree or disagree on the Tea Party, but one thing is a certainty: If the Republican Party had been doing their job, the Tea Party would not be at all necessary, or even in existence. It seems that in today's political world, especially in the U.S. Congress (both Houses), the Republican Party is nothing more than a branch of the Democrat Party. And that is absolutely criminal.
ReplyDeleteThe Republicans would do well to remember what Ben Franklin (?) said a couple of hundred years ago: We must all hang together or we will surely hang separately.
One more thing: I wrote in a letter in our local bird cage liner that I would not vote for any incumbent, local, State, or Federal, except for our Congress member, Jaime Herrera-Beutler. But unless she starts distancing herself from Speaker Boehner, I will vote for conservative Republican running against her this coming November.

Jeez, what political nincompoopery. I see a simple reason for NOT proceeding just yet. You'd like the polity to be must offended come November. Political disaffection has little value in August. It's called timing.
