I.R.S. Scrutiny Went Beyond the Political

Which, to my understanding based on the little I've paid attention or really cared either way on this story, the IRS themselves have came out and states that those groups didn't receive similar scrutiny as the conservative keyword groups.

Well taking a guess, I think the difference mighty be in the area of politics the conservative groups engaged in.

Nice try - I don't despise Obama although I do despise him as President - I have no time for incompetent fools in important offices or positions. By the way, that's not humor - as for my original post, yes indeed, that's humor - all good humor has truth as its basis and often twigs the nerves of those who take themselves too seriously, like you. I'm pretty sure those I was speaking to got it even if you didn't. The fact you think I lack humor means you haven't a clue about either me or humor, making you perhaps a prime candidate as an Obama sychophant, if you aren't already.

There is no parallel with Nixon and this scandal. NONE. With Watergate there was the illegal breaking, with the IRS there appears to be no illegal activity that is apparent. No Woodward & Bernstein and no deep throat.

There is none... yet.

Listen for the term "information laundering". If there is any scandal here, this is where it will be. Everything else is just noise because the fact of the matter is that conservative groups were literally flooding the system with applications for 501c4 status. OF COURSE they were going to be disproportionately scrutinized. This in itself is not a scandal and will never go beyond the IRS needing to revise it's procedure. However, if there is a connection between the IRS and parties associated with the DNC to provide information about these groups, this IS the stuff of Woodward and Bernstein.
