...This whole IRS targeting conservative groups is silly...
You are not deluded enough to think that the targeting did not happen...right? ![Huh? ???](http://outdoorwoodfurnaceinfo.com/forum/Smileys/default/huh.gif)
The IRS has already admitted it occurred.
The ex-director won't talk...hmmm.
Come on.
Targeting happened on both sides, there were key words that set off review status, and rightfully so.

What were those scary "key" words? Was there equal and due process given to groups from all slices of the political spectrum?
I can answer that one for you...no. You're welcome. ![Grin ;D](http://outdoorwoodfurnaceinfo.com/forum/Smileys/default/grin.gif)
You might want to let Ms. Lerner know there was no problem with what she and her agency did, she seems to think her testimony will incriminate her...and/or some other people that she would like to protect. ![Wink ;)](http://outdoorwoodfurnaceinfo.com/forum/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
There were no "scarry" key words, only those that triggered questioning on the validity of NP status. Here are some:
"Tea Party"
"Medical Marijuana"
"Open Source Software"
"Green Energy"
"Occupied/Occupy"
"successors to ACORN"
"Progressive"
"blue"
Here is another quote from the BOLO list document(s)
"Political action type organizations involved in limiting/expanding government, educating on the constitution and bill of rights, Social economic reform/movement"
It seems quite apparent there was due process give, as only a liberal leaning group was denied NP status.
While you tried to answer it, you appeared to be willfully uneducated on the topic, wishing to ignore the actuality of events in exchange for your feel good partisan fix. If you wish to remain blissfully ignorant on the topic that's fine, but don't be surprised or offended when you get called on it.
Pleading the 5th does not indicate any kind of admittance of guilt. Another partisan bandwagon that seems to be getting loaded down with jumpers lately...
