Default Spurious Tea Party IRS cliams tossed out

IRS notches legal victory in tea party cases

http://www.politico.com/story/2014/1...ry-112145.html

a Republican-appointed federal judge on Thursday threw out two
lawsuits brought by more than 40 conservative groups seeking remedies
for being singled out in the tea party targeting scandal, a victory
for the IRS.

"Judge Walton got it right -- there is no ongoing injury to these
groups," said Paul S. Ryan, senior counsel at the Campaign Legal
Center, which backs tighter rules on political nonprofits. "The IRS
needs to enforce tax law with respect to nonprofit political groups
more aggressively."

A furor erupted in May 2013, after a Treasury inspector general report
blasted the IRS for using discriminatory labels to sort through
applicants seeking tax-exempt status using terms like "tea party " and
"patriots.


Judge Reggie Walton of the U.S. District Court of the District of
Columbia dismissed almost all counts brought against the
tax-collecting agency in two cases,
ruling that both were essentially
moot now that the IRS granted the groups their tax-exempt status that
had been held up for years.


That's irrelevant because Liberal groups were looked-at by the IRS during the original time period, as well. The whole thing will go no where.

And it turned out that you were right.

"Real Liberal Politics"? Eek! OK, so when Reps brought out that Tea
Party folks were targeted by the IRS, they "lied" because they didn't
include Libs in the IRS focus? Riiiiiiiiight. I hate politics; at
least as practiced in the world today. sigh

I don't take credit. Historically, uninformed, yet highly influential, patriotic and highly financed groups usually fail in their goals.
