my 2 cents....
If the IRS wants to target groups they suspect may be violating their tax-exempt status, that's fine by me, but there's better and far less politically obvious ways to do so then say "Ooo, look they have "tea" in the group's name."
As Darkhorse said earlier, it is becoming rather disturbing how political everything is becoming in American politics. Everything is turning into a tactic to single out your political opposition.

Sigmund Freud defined four parts of a psyche; the id, the ego, the superego and the stratego. The Stratego being the highest form of morality and scientific thinking.

All trolling aside, how does this adhere to Obama? The IRS director at the time was a Bush appointee, but the scheme was concocted by mid-level employees who were then shut down when higher level management became aware of the situation? Is there anything to this other than "Obama bad, durr"?
