Documents Prove That the IRS Targeted Conservative GroupsBy Joshua Krause The IRS is also being criticized for levying outrageous fines on businesses that reimburse their employees for health insurance; fines that are 12 times higher than the statutory limit written in the Affordable Care Act. But the latest news on a longrunning IRS scandal takes the cake. Judicial Watch announced earlier this week, that they had obtained documents that prove the IRS used donor lists of tax exempt organizations to target them with audits. These were largely conservative organizations opposed to the Obama administration. The IRS attempted to issue a gift tax of 35% on some of these donors, despite the fact that a gift tax on donations was ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, and hasnt been used since 1982. While many of these organizations are hardly saints, (the documents show that Crossroads GPS was targeted, an organization that is associated with establishment heavyweight, Karl Rove) this scandal reveals the awful truth about our government. Our government agencies are not designed to execute laws, they exist to serve whoever manages to capture them. If an individual or organization publicly opposes the people running our government (which in this case is Obama, and the financial elite that own him) they will use their agencies to hurt them in any way they can.

Any organization Karl Rove is involved with should not be considered an educational organization or a social welfare group. They engage in funneling money from billionaires to politicians, or directly to the media on their favored politicians behalf. They should be targeted, as should any organization involved in this activity regardless of political views.
