You really cannot make this stuff up.

The Internal Revenue Service official in charge of the tax-exempt organizations at the time when the unit targeted tea party groups now runs the IRS office responsible for the health care legislation.

Sarah Hall Ingram served as commissioner of the office responsible for tax-exempt organizations between 2009 and 2012. But Ingram has since left that part of the IRS and is now the director of the IRS’ Affordable Care Act office, the IRS confirmed to ABC News today.

Her successor, Joseph Grant, is taking the fall for misdeeds at the scandal-plagued unit between 2010 and 2012. During at least part of that time, Grant served as deputy commissioner of the tax-exempt unit.
Your health is now contingent on political affiliation. Most of you won't care because you don't like the Tea Party, so I don't want to hear it when the pendulum swings the other way.
 
So this guy, who was promoted to the position just to be fired from it, takes the fall, while the woman actually responsible for running the office from 2010 to 2012 is now enforcing ObamaCare.
 
"Now more than ever, we need to prevent the IRS from having any role in Americans’ health care,” Cornyn, R-Texas. I hope it doesn't surprise the conservative ilk here that I'm in full support of this idea! Republicans could gain some traction if they started fronting universal single payer healthcare.

Instead we see Republicans doing nothing but spinning their wheels in the mud passing an overturn of Obamacare for the 37th time, even though it'll never reach the President's desk. Psst, go the other direction Republicans. Americans want improvements to the healthcare. Instead you all act like Healthcare was perfect prior to Obamacare. Going back to the crap we had before Obamacare isn't an improvement, it's the same old crap. Obamacare does poll badly. However, when the provisions of Obamacare are asked separated many people support them. Republicans need to figure out how to keep the good things and improve upon them.

The Tea Party isn't a party at all. It was a political distraction run by right wing billionaires, to prevent disgruntled Republicans from going Libertarian. The disgruntled Republicans are better off without them.

But,but, faethor and Mike say Libertarians are e v i l.
 
@Red,

You're ok. Many a time we've explained how your position is not the one Libertarians would take. :)
 
kind of funny... a conservative republican used a bunch of keywords to separate out a bunch of tea party non-profits so they could be "further scrutinized" and yet what it appears they got was fast track approval in a rather lopsided manner... yet teabaggers wanna pin their good fortune on obama as if its a matter of blame?... gawd the media missed the boat on this "scandal"... :confused:
