They'll lose. The IRS seems to have targeted groups that were set up in recent months, whose main purpose was to not pay taxes, and which were formed as tax-exempt organizations. So, duh. We would expect the IRS to target such groups. If those groups were conservative, so be it. But that's not why those were targeted. If those groups were liberal, then so be it. But that's not why those groups were targeted.
BTW, the IRS targeted other groups, in addition to those.
Huh ?
First, Lois Lerner in 2012 ADMITTED via a planted question that the IRS had targeted Conservative action groups disproportionately.
She, and Obama's official payed Liar Jay Carney, blamed it on " rogue agents in Cincinnati."
But when those rogue agents were put under oath, they said their orders came from Washington.
So the first of many huge lies from the IRS and the WH.
As for other 501C organizations, only 7 Liberal groups were targeted for extra investigation and after a average of two extra questions each, they all received their tax exempt status.
Then came the desperate mitigations from the hacks on the left AND the White House. That the Houses investigation was just a Politically motivated " Witch hunt ".
The problem with that assertion is that if truly was a Politically motivated Witch hunt, the White House and the IRS could have ended the whole thing 2 years ago by simply answering the questions.
You don't counter a " Witch hunt " with 24 Consecutive 5th amendment pleas.
You dont counter a Witch hunt by destroying evidence. No, all the Obama administration and the IRS has done is to perpetuate this scandal and remove all doubt that they used a powerful Federal agency to target innocent Americans.
So you're wrong, they weren't being targeted because they were seeking tax exempt status, they were being targeted because they disagreed with our dear leader and thats HIGHLY ILLEGAL and corrupt.
