WE WANT OUR COUNTRY BACK.



Was the White House involved in the IRS’s targeting of conservatives?  
No investigation needed to answer that one. Of course it was.   
The White house is in full deny-everything mode, proclaiming that the IRS is an “independent” agency and that they knew nothing about its abuse. 

The IRS abused its power in targeting conservatives for harassment and probably leaking information to liberal groups during the presidential election cycle.

But the IRS’s actions crossed a line from merely corrupt into sinister when it grilled an Iowa pro-life group about its religious views. During a House Ways and Means Committee hearing on Friday, Rep. Aaron Schock, R-Ill., asked outgoing IRS commissioner Steven Miller about it.

“Their question,” Schock said, “specifically asked from the IRS to the Coalition for Life of Iowa: ‘Please detail the content of the members of your organization’s prayers.’   SAY WHAT?  Would that be an inappropriate question for ANY government agency to ask?    The content of one’s prayers, I think not.



Almost since Day One of the Obama Administration, the Department of Homeland Security has issued reports warning of the dangers posed by conservative groups and military veterans, conflating Christians and Orthodox Jews with Left-wing-inspired groups such as the KKK and neo-Nazis.

More recently, the Air Force and Pentagon have moved toward a policy of cracking down on Christians who evangelize by sharing their faith with other enlisted personnel. The planned policy change has raised alarm among conservative groups because it seems to be driven by the zealously anti-Christian Military Religious Freedom Foundation.

Taken altogether, and viewed against President Obama’s self-professed preference for Muslims, the Administration’s targeting of Christians and Jews is chilling. Still the Administration pretends as if nothing unusual has gone on.

Yes Piers Morgan, Government really can be tyrannical.  Have you never heard the expression “power corrupts, absolute power absolutely corrupts”.

WE WANT OUR COUNTRY BACK.
