Repubs ok with IRS targeting NAACP

I'm not OK with the IRS. But I wouldn't say that I am a republican either. So let me clarify that, the IRS should go away as it is currently comprised.
 
What did the audit find? If the finances were in order perhaps this line of questioning has some merit. If their finances weren't in order, then how can you argue with the audit? I honestly don't know how this investigation turned out and am asking here.
 
In all of these matters taking places lately, it serves little purpose to point out prior 'wrong-doings' as any means of getting anywhere.

My wife does that all the time. I bring up A, and instead of responding to that, she brings up "What about when you did B?"

Now we can't go anywhere. She's offset facing "A" by putting attention on "B."

In politics, to point back to what 'the other side' did previously, really does one thing: It says, "our side can be just as screwed up as your side."

I thought the Democratic Party was going to offer something different and better under Obama.

As it turns out, they have made a contribution like this: If the Obama Administration can do no more than the same crap that's been going on already, then it only proves one thing -- GOVERNMENT DOES NOT WORK. Government is not the solution. Government is the problem.

Fire the whole damn mess. This current Democratic administration is no better than any other. We're down to arguing which administration in our lifetime has been the worst.

My contention is that the way government grew during the 20th century has become too big and rich and powerful.

And Obama's administration is proof that it can no longer be trusted. That political power cannot be trusted.

So add up all of it... all administrations.... lump 'em all together. One party, one path of waaaaaay too big of a government.

Downsize. Reduce taxes. Reduce spending. I'll take all the criticism of any past administration if everyone else will join in criticizing this one. And together, let us all criticize political power and it's corruptive nature.

Frankly, I feel like giving Obama a Medal of Honor for demonstrating that even under his watch, things can slide off the table and run off the rails. People involved are really not the problem -- the problem is political power and what it does to people, how it corrupts them in both morals and judgment. Which is why the founders tried to set up as limited a government as possible by the chains of the Constitution.

The "but the other side does it too" argument always works to the advantage of liberalism. The exercise diminishes conservatism, which is essentially an objectivist point of view and, as such, asserts a standard of truth that its adherents will inevitably fail to live up to in their public and private lives. Liberalism, on the other hand, is essentially subjectivist, and as such, it rejects the notion that there was ever any standard of truth to live up to in the first place, a position which can only be helped by the "but the other side does it too" exercise.

It's my sense that in politics a tie is always a win for liberalism.
 
//// very astute what he just said!!

I had forgotten that aspect of difference between the two parties. One up for the liberals that they incorporate subjectivism and relativism to such a degree.
 
NAACP should lose its tax exempt status. Its basically an extension of the Democratic party. This would be a more interesting discussion if the Tea Party organization was tax exempt.
 
Also, pointing out a NAACP audit is silly. The problem with what the IRS did isn't that tea party groups got audited. If they did something that would trigger an audit, then they should be audited. If there is wrongdoing here, it's because they were discriminated against because of their political views in the audit selection process. There's no indication that that was done with the NAACP.
 
Credit is due to Roger35. He's either the undisputed idiot of this board, or the best troll currently on HF.

I sure hope he's an aggy. The thought that someone as dishonest, racist, immature and inexplicably stupid as he is having ties to The University is disturbing/disappointing.
 
You have to give 35 credit, he is consistent.

Blame Bush, conservatives are racist, next we will hear that the Iraq War was for Oil and that W never completed his National Guard duty.

Consistent, he is.......

What's hilarious is that in a thread where roger says "it's no big deal, W did it, too..." he links an article from a partisan leftist website with a headline about "bogus" charges, in which the article actually admits that if the accounts are true, they are "outrageous".

So rog, what is your point here? It's ok? It's not ok? It's horrible but it's not Obama's fault? This is just another right-wing "circle-jerk" as your limited descriptive skills likes to point out? You're kind of all over the place on this one...

The idea would seem to be "we haven't seen any linkage yet, so don't look for it and don't ask about it."
 
35 still has a few more Bush Zingers we haven't heard in awhile, anybody want to take bets?

Bush wasted all that money that Clinton left him.
Bush ordered them to destroy the levies in New Orleans.
Bush daughters are alcholics.
C'mon guys help me.........
