IRS harassment of conservative orgs happened at a dozen offices--all coincidence of course

Remember that story a long, long time ago about the IRS delaying action by conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status for as long as three years, while waving liberal groups through in three weeks?

I'm not sure when that happened--the so-called "news" shows don't mention it anymore and it seemed to only last a few days, so...I dunno.  But I seem to remember a high-level IRS supervisor named Lois Lerner assuring us peasants that this was all much ado about nothing, and that the problem was "confined to one rogue office in Cincinnati" and "entirely done by a few front-line employees."

Sound familiar at all?

Well, no matter.  Turns out an organization that's filed suit against the IRS claims to have evidence that the delaying tactics and outlandish, outrageous demands for all manner of information having zero to do with the sought status were done by--not one rogue IRS office but a dozen different offices of the IRS.

But do not suspect, citizen, that this policy might have been hatched by someone higher up the chain, like Washington.  Seriously.  Its appearance in a dozen IRS field offices was nothing more than a bizarre coincidence, like people who say something bad about King Barack and then the next day get notified that they're being audited.

All pure coincidence, citizen.

Oh, and here's another item of interest:  There's this nutso Leftist organization called Netroots--they push Democrat policies all the way, very hard left.  Since IRS employees insisted to conservative organizations that THEY couldn't advocate for any particular point of view (literally, that's what they told 'em), one blogger was curious as to whether Netroots has tax-exempt status--seeing as how it relentlessly pushes the Dem/socalist/Left-wing crap 24/7.

Yep, they're tax-exempt.

But you'd already guessed that, eh?

Remember, citizen, all animals are equal...but some animals are more equal than others.  You got a problem with that?
