The IRS’s targeting and harassment of conservatives and Tea Party groups impacted the 2012 presidential election between Obama and Romney.
Jay Sekulow, from the American Center for Law & Justice, said it was “very well possible” during recent testimony before the House.
We know that the IRS is suppressing conservative groups, so it’s not only ‘possible’, it happened.
And, because it happened it basically means the election was stolen – just one more reason why Obama’s presidency is illegitimate.
Jay Sekulow, chief counsel for the American Center for Law & Justice, said it was “very well possible” that the IRS’s targeting and harassment of conservatives and Tea Party groups impacted the 2012 presidential election between President Barack Obama and Republican candidate Mitt Romney.Testifying before a House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on Regulatory Affairs hearing Thursday to discuss the IRS’s targeting of conservatives, Sekulow, whose organization is representing some Tea Party groups that were targeted, was asked by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) whether he felt that the targeting changed or impacted the 2012 election.
Sekulow said that there is evidence that the “groups being intimidated,” even those that did not realize it at the time, had a “significant impact on the election.” He said it is “very well possible” that the 2012 election was impacted by an “aggressive, continuous, and systemic intimidation factor by the IRS with applications still pending… for three years.”
When Tea Party groups and conservatives like Mark Levin raised concerns about some suspicious activity by the IRS at the time, the mainstream press and Democrats ridiculed them for being paranoid. That turned out not to be the case, as revelations came from within the IRS that the agency scrutinized the tax-exempt applications of Tea Partiers and conservatives more than it did progressives. In addition, the IRS reportedly targeted conservative donors as well.
OBAMA AND HIS THUGS NEED TO BE BOOTED OUT, WE NEED OUR COUNTRY BACK.
So….do something to get him and Biden out…
makes us even JEB bush stole the one before.
I say—Pay the taxes. Win the election big time. Then, GUT the IRS!!
mr kilbuen you and others like you are the reason the country is in the fix its in right now and since you dont know a damn thing yet you are allowed to vote i would like to advise you of a well kept secret dont tell anyone but it was george bush who was the comander and chief not jeb thats his little brother. so if you like sprwing forth your words of wisdom try knowing what your talking about first
I know we need money to run this country and I’m not against paying tax’s but I am against the way it has been spent for the pass 6 years. I don’t think we should have to pay Obama’s wife or daughters anything. He makes more than enough to take care of them.. I think we should look seriously at Washington White house Salary. If change was made to limit the terms of the congressmen just maybe they would do a better job to represent the people of America. Obama has increased our debt and I feel he and congress salary should be decreased to pay the debt it back As I see it Him and his support team has not earned the large salary they get.
Ok, so now do something about it or shut up.
The irs was targeting liberal groups as well. Blah blah blah Obama is the reason for everything. God republicans are so annoying
You don’t think there is no corruption in this administration? That’s all it is! He ( Obama ) Has only hurt this country instead of making it better! A Man that hides his own information on himself, and wants all of yours is pretty strande! Then to use the IRS to silence a particular group is mpretty low! He needs to be sent to jail!!
He needs to be put in front of a fireing squad for muder and Treason. Along with all is cronies period.
