6 Reasons the IRS Scandal Leads to Obama
At this point, essentially all evidence points to the fact that Obama knew of and likely ordered the IRS attack on the Tea Party. He joked about it, talked about it, met with the people who initiated it, and met 100+ times with the IRS chief while it was occurring.
Since the scandal broke, everyone seems to be falling on their swords and protecting the White House. Meanwhile, some officials are coming forward saying it “comes from the top”.
Some people are so blindly in love with Barack Obama — for reasons I will probably never understand — that they believe it’s all fabricated and just a stunt by Republicans. So let’s look at the evidence.
1. Orders Came “From the Top”
Even though the official story is that it was just a question of “low level” workers acting on their own, we now know that is a lie for a variety of reasons. Some IRS officials have even come forward, with one saying that it came “from the top”:
“We people on the local level are doing what we are supposed to do. . . . That’s why there are so many people here who are flustered. Everything comes from the top. We don’t have any authority to make those decisions without someone signing off on them. There has to be a directive.”Considering the Obama administration immediately began claiming this was a low-level issue, it should be clear how far up this goes, especially in light of everything else we know about Obama’s involvement.
2. Obama Talked About It Beforehand
Obama joked about using the IRS as a weapon in 2009, just a year before the Tea Party attack began. While clearly it was only a joke, it’s pretty clear that using the IRS in a political context wasn’t something he’d never considered.
If this was the only evidence, there wouldn’t be a link to Obama. But mixed with the reasons listed below, it’s simply more damning of what should be obvious at this point.
