Scary result of IRS scandal

Posted October 28, 2015 1:00 am

How to abuse power within the IRS and get away with it in eight easy steps.

1. Get an influential job at the IRS in the Obama administration.

2. Take cues from your leader and use your position to restrain/delay/deny group tax exempt status for those that are against your leader politically.

3. Be exposed of this injustice by the affected private groups.

4. Immediately destroy all electronic records of your activities (and 10 of your closest friends).

5. Plead the Fifth Amendment when asked questions in front of Congress. 6. Be put on leave of absence - collecting your full pay and pension.

7. Have every investigation come to the conclusion that you used your position of power in a manner that was not legal.

8. Wait for the Obama attorney general to review the case and exonerate you of any wrongdoing.

This is the exact story over the past six years from the Lois Lerner investigation, which was just closed by the Obama (in) justice department. All Americans need to be alarmed and afraid.
