We've not seen anything yet. Just wait until the IRS can release their thugs into the field of healthcare enforcement, or whatever else they might get assigned to do.

Could be a left wing conspiracy or those who consider themselves above paying taxes are getting caught. Let's just agree to agree that everyone has to pay their taxes.

If this was a conspiracy then it seems that it was taking place at the lowest levels of bureaucracy. And their stated goal wasn't so much to 'obstruct and topple' conservative organizations as it was to find a way to convienently sort out new 'non-profits' organizations.
Still, it was an ill-advised plan, like trying to sort out religious non-profits and using the search terms "Christian or Muslim".
It will be used as political fodder by the people who live and breath for opportunities to create conspiracy theories.

Nothing like a good conspiracy. I hear the President did not say Bengazi was a terrorist act until he spoke.

SPIN!
Mistake is when they do something NOT on purpose. So take that word out of your spin. Admitting a "political abuse of power" is what you meant to say, because that is exactly what it is.
Does anyone notice the proof of an overall pattern developing?

This, the present, in power government, wants to run every possible aspect of our lives.
Taxes everything, controls the bedroom, lies about everything, Benghazi is a great example, blames everything on everyone else, circumvents the Constitution at every corner, and makes excuses for every action.
May I suggest:
1.) The government might like to become ACCOUNTABLE for their own actions.
2.) Be RESPONSIBLE for their own actions.
3.) Stop playing the BLAME GAME. Stop the crap with this Pres. did this or that 5,8,12,16, or 44 years ago.
4.) Pay attention to what the REAL problems are. DON'T make up or create new ones!
5.) Do things that are good for the entire nation, not for a particular group,
at the expense of the other groups.
6.) These points go for EVERY elected person.
7.) Try to learn to tell the TRUTH.
8.) Admit when you've screwed up.
9.) Fix what you break!

He's right when he says "lowest level". These will be the people the administration throw under the bus, with the help of the media, or course.
