IT IS HAPPENING HERE: the IRS scandal is the worst in American history


Ace:  
Bookworm: The IRS Scandal is the Worst Political Scandal in American History 
And she makes a good case that it is. I can't think of any other scandal where the government actually engaged in widespread extra-legal stifling of dissent on ideological grounds. 
All of the other scandals, going back to Andrew Johnson's post-Civil War scandals, Warren G. Harding's 1920s Teapot Dome scandal, Nixon's Watergate, Reagan's Iran-Contra, and Clinton's Oval Office sexcapades have actually been narrowly focused acts of cronyism, garden-variety political chicanery, or personal failings. It's been insider stuff. 
The IRS scandal, by contrast, is a direct attack on the American people. 
Right now, Progressives throughout America are pretending that this scandal doesn't matter: "Obama wasn't involved." "Tea Partiers had it coming because they're all corrupt." "Obama would have won the election anyway." "It was just a coincidence that the only groups that had their applications scrutinized, sometimes for years, were politically conservative. It means nothing that, when one group changed its name to sound Progressive, its application was approved in only three weeks." "This is just a bureaucratic snafu." "It's a few rogue agents in Ohio." 
And whenever you see illegal thuggery, be sure and look for the union label. No doubt the NTEU's 94% donation rate to Democrats is completely irrelevant to how they would treat conservatives as IRS employees.
IT IS HAPPENING HERE; OBAMA IS TURNING THE US GOVERNMENT AGAINST US CITIZENS.

 HE MUST BE IMPEACHED. EVEN TRIED FOR TREASON.

 AND IF CONVICTED...
