 The IRS Scandal Is Improper And Illegal Political Competition

Democrats, who are famous for making a bunch of noise about Fairness, Equal Access, Voter Suppression, and Racial Discrimination ... "REDLINED" all requests by tax-exempt organizations that appeared to be aligned against a progressive political agenda.

Many organizations were headed up by conservative Black, Hispanic, Female and Religious organizers, who wanted to educate potential voters and inform them of the consequences of tyranny (the kind they were being confronted with in their application process), and be able to bring fairness in the process of public discourse.

This is by any measure, far worse than what had actually happened in the activities that created "Watergate" and what the activities were suppose to achieve - political competition and the garnering of information overcome by mission creep.

In the case of Watergate, a small group of people who were supporting the re-election efforts of Richard M. Nixon, in order to get direct information from the Democrat Political Party, broke into the offices of the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington, D.C., on June 17, 1972, and the Nixon administration's attempted cover-up of its involvement in this effort.

What is now just coming to light is a culture of political competition and the garnering of personal information overcome by mission creep headed up by the management forces of the Executive Branch and key Democrat Senate and House of Representative leaders. The level of involvement in this culture marshals the immense power and legal consequence strength of most all of the human activity management forces of Government embodied in the processes of Bureaucracy (Internal Revenue Service, the Environmental Protection Agency, Health and Human Services, and etc.). We now have a Government that is not designed as "for the people and by the people" as the Constitution creates and instructs, but a Government aligned to protect Progressive political agendas and policies against those who believe in the Constitution of the United States, the Bill-Of-Rights, and the Rule-Of-Law.

What we have today is a whole Government, with all of its information gathering and legal power, aligned to support re-election efforts of any Democrat Political Party candidate as opposed to a simple effort by a few people involved in political competition and the garnering of information overcome by mission creep.

The IRS scandal is improper and illegal political competition and is far worse than what the the Republican Political Party subjected citizens to through the efforts put forth in Watergate (one political party's management office versus a cross-over into citizenry political thought and activity management) in the pursuit of power and political competition.

Those funny Democrats!!

Mitt Romney Scores Big With Blue Collar Backbone In Ohio

Last week, soon after his announcement of embracing Congressman (WI) Paul Ryan as his running mate, Mitt Romney scheduled a meeting with coal miners in eastern Ohio. The photo at the top of this posting was one of the main photos of the event ... all pretty standard stuff with the Republican nominee for president 2012 shaking hands with workers.

What wasn't broadcast broadly was this photo posted by a conservative blog that showed the anticipation and participation from these unionized workers, many of whom generally vote Democrat in support of their union labor vocations.

Romney focuses on coal during Ohio speech
BY JIM PROVANCE - BLADE COLUMBUS BUREAU CHIEF - Published: 8/14/2012

Mitt Romney today stood in front of eastern Ohioans seemingly straight out of the mine — hard hats, smudged faces, and blue and gray uniforms — as he accused President Obama of “waging war” on coal.

"He’s for all the sources of energy that come from above the ground, none of the sources below the ground, like oil and coal and gas,” the presumptive Republican nominee told a crowd outside American Energy Corp’s Century Mine near Beallsville, Belmont County.

"I’m for all of the above, whether it comes from above the ground or below the ground,” he said. “We’re going to take advantage of our energy resources to save your jobs, create more jobs, and, by the way, when we use our plentiful energy resources, our inexpensive carbon-based resources, you’re going to see manufacturing come back to America…,” he said.

“By the end of my second term — hopefully, I get that first and second term — we will have North American energy independence,” he said. “We won’t have to buy oil from Venezuala of the the Middle East.”

The president's campaign refuted Mr. Romney's comments about coal today.

“Only one candidate in this race actually has a record of finding a clean future for coal, and that’s President Obama,'' said Obama spokesman Lis Smith. "President Obama has increased investments in the research and development of clean coal technology and employment in the mining industry hit a 15-year high in 2011.
----
On the outskirts of Beallsville, there’s no doubt that coal is king. Signs dot the rural roads: “Stop the war on coal. Fire Obama.”
----
He didn’t mention his new running mate, Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan, until near the end of his nearly 20-minute speech and then it was a passing reference. Mr. Ryan is expected at Miami University in Oxford on Wednesday.

The mining industry has a love-hate relationship with southeast Ohio, balancing thousands of jobs against environmental concerns. A subsidiary of Murray Energy, the largest private coal company in the United States, recently pleaded guilty and faces millions in penalties for a nearby pipeline rupture that polluted Captina Creek.

Another subsidiary in nearby Brilliant has blamed federal regulation for its plans to close.

Mr. Romney told the crowd that the Democratic [Democrat Political Party] must win Ohio to win re-election.

“To win Ohio, he’s got to win eastern Ohio, and he’s got to get the votes of the people in these communities all around us here, and you’re not going to let that happen, because you’re going to keep our jobs,” he said. “You’re going to keep Ohio strong and bring back America.”

He targeted his message directly toward his audience.

“We’ve 250 years left of coal,” he said. ‘’Why in the world wouldn’t we use it?”
----
“(Mr. Obama) says he’s for coal, but the regulation he’s putting on coal is making it basically impossible for us to mine the coal,” said Shawn Schoolcraft, of St. Clairsville, who has worked for two years as a roof-bolter at the deep mine Mr. Romney visited today.

“Underground, they don’t want us to have so much dust … and with EPA with the power plants, they’re killing so many megawatts that our plants just can’t run as clean as they want them to run,” he said.

As the attitudes of these blue collar Democrats have shown, the erosion that Obama policies have had on many voting blocks will not have these blocks be as strong as they were in 2008.

We just hope that the discontent generated with ObamaCare, running the country with NO BUDGET in three years (over 1,000 days), increased federal regulations that are chocking off business activity through the increase in time required to report back to the Government on compliance, a foreign policy that is characterized as "Leading From Behind" as opposed to standing on principle and traditional relationships, and this 44th Executive Branch's war on traditional religion through healthcare regulations, has people lining up at the voting polls just as the miners above were lining up to hear Mitt Romney address the gathered crowd.

As far as voter fraud is concerned ... "If It Ain't Close They Can't Cheat!". Vote early and often for Romney Ryan 2012!
