The IRS Targets Conservatives

I prefer to call it motivation. If the government can screw with one group, eventually it will screw with all groups at some time or other.

 

Your hate and bigotry was apparent way before the IRS scandal.

 

Of course you would prefer to call it that, but motivation and personal bias often go hand in hand.

 

Political parties seem to have developed out of personal bias regarding a whole range of economic, social, religious and educational biases. Who is most "correct" often is decided by voters who band together in common -- biased -- causes.

 

There seems to be nothing that thumbs can't blame on the media and no problem that can't be solved by reducing funding and closing down agencies. It's a remarkable thing to watch.

 

Utter disdain? Yes. Bigotry? No. Bigotry implies that I am opposed to the Obama administration because of some racial or religious bias. I loathe the administration because it is weak, misguided, power-mad and mismanaged, if not downright corrupt.

Of course, I forgive you for your bigotry as shown by your attacks on me and my posts simply because I am Hispanic.

 

Here's the problem, you are so blinded by irrational hate that you can't even see that the administration is none of those things. Only unfounded scenarios you have created in your mind.

Which can only lead one to assume there are other motives for your hate.

 

Then you should go back and re-read some of your anti-Bush posts.

 

That's because it is so easy -- and logical.

 

Yes, totally logical like your performance in this thread and we all know how the best solutions are always whatever is easiest. You're on a roll.

 

This isn't about a political party or a group binding together for a cause. You have attacked the IRS and admittedly have an axe to grind against it personally. Because of your personal feelings about the IRS, you may lack the ability to discuss it rationally.

 

That would disqualify much of the content found in this sub-forum.

 

It is one thing to have personal views on a topic. It is something totally different to opine about an organization when you feel as though that organization has treated you unfairly. It stops being political discourse and starts being a vendetta.

This debate remind me of mental habitual trance - a mental state which a person is unaware that their reptilian portion of the brain has taken over and they enter a cycle of habitual responses characterized by loss of voluntary thoughts, self re-enforcing involuntary thought, and lack appropriate response to external stimuli and data. Such a state is usually something a person get into when their reptilian portion of the brain recognize some pattern that fire off some deep-seeded habitual responses (fight or flight responses for example). But for it to go on and on in a debate - that's quite unique.

 

I think that it is looking more and more clear that Republican congressmen and the conservative media establishment owe some apologies concerning this purported scandal. First off to all Americans for wasting time and resources way past the point where such expenses were necessary. But secondly and most importantly, they owe an apology to their constituents - those low information Republican voters and conservative media consumers who were lead astray focusing on non-existent problems while the real issues affecting them went unaddressed.

Even posters on this forum were fooled. People like thumbs, bobmarley, Commodore, Space Ghost, bigtexxx, justtxyank, basso, and tallanvor are owed an apology by Republican congressmen and our conservative media establishment. It is patently unfair that posters on this forum who had so much invested in this purported scandal be left with pie on their face while those responsible get off scot-free. These posters were lied to and made to look like gullible fools still feasting at the trough over-laden with bovine excrement; led there by the very people they should be able to trust. As a fellow poster and as an American, I stand with you all and say to Darrell Issa, "shame on you, Mr. Congressman!"

 

Honestly it's pretty hilarious. These guys were playing the victim role, frothing at the mouth, egged on by conservative media and whoooooops. Now lets pretend it never happened, on to the next scandal!

 

ruh roh:

The chief counsel’s office for the Internal Revenue Service, headed by a political appointee of President Obama, helped develop the agency’s problematic guidelines for reviewing “tea party” cases, according to a top IRS attorney.

 

Are these the isolated few in Cincinnati?
