The Barack H. Obama Foundation, named after that great American patriot and capitalist, Barack H, Obama Sr., was organized by one of Barack, Jr.'s many half brothers, Abon'go Malik "Roy" Obama. It is an organization formed and operated from Nairobi, Kenya. Its alleged purpose is to assist needy Kenyans with basic needs such as housing. Strangely, there is no record of its "good works".
This foundation filed for tax exempt status in the United States under Sec. 501©(4) of the IRC. Although it had no formal organization in this country, its application was approved in less than 30 days by none other than Lois Lerner herself. In fact, she made the approval retroactive for over two years so that contributions to the "charity" would qualify for tax exemption by BHBF and as a deductible contribution for contributors. It also cleared the organization of any liability for required IRS filings that were delinquent.
Obviously, the Tea Party groups were negligent in not naming their organizations after the illustrious Barack, Sr. It could have resulted in almost same day service.
Of course, the problems with conservative filings with the IRS are mere coincidence and not related in any way to a political agenda. And, of course, Barack, Jr. and his closest advisers knew nothing about any of this. And, of course, the fact that it conveniently aided the reelection of Barack, Jr. is another mere coincidence. And, of course, if there were anything questionable about any of this, our independent and probing media would have flushed out the facts and reported it. And, finally, if you believe any of this is the case, you truly are a fool.

IMO, folks will just let things go on as they are until they feel the pain for themselves. I am reminded of the song The Grass Roots released in 1967, "Let's Live for Today" In spirit of that song, most people are happy to get by and, as long as their benefactors in the federal government continue to make that a reality, they will continue to vote for liberals.
We have a very simple problem here in this country. Those who work and make money have been exploited for just about as much of their money as is possible for them to give, short of doing without themselves. Therefore, those that receive veritable fortunes in entitlements are in some amount of jeopardy whether they know it or not. I believe the shortfall for working folks will show up first with the ObamaCare debacle. Very soon now, the working folks who have been told they will be allowed to keep their long held health insurance will find themselves unceremoniously forced into the state exchanges. When that happens they will find that they can no longer afford health insurance, and that will include even the base level coverage of 60%. On the other hand, the people who get everything free, will continue to get everything free. While, those that are in the work force will no longer be able to pay their bills. I would predict they will watch the slugs go through the grocery store lines with ample supplies of food piled up in their carts, while their own families will be forced to live at levels not imagined in 2008 when BHO
ascended.
Don't forget, ObamaCare mandated all kinds of laws associated with health and safety for the poor, to include confiscating legally acquired guns from legitimate owners. We all have been subjected to the state, conscripted into servitude to help Uncle Sam
'take care' of the poor and, we have no recourse. Obama calls it "doing one's fair share." Back in the days of Jean Lafitte, they called that forced servitude being shanghaied. Any way one slices it, we are steadily loosing our freedoms as the scourge of liberalism continues to gain momentum from the upper levels of the federal government. 2014 will say a lot about whether America is to survive.

That scenario has went on a lot longer than since Obama took office. That has happened as longer than I've been in the work force, and buying groceries, 30 years.

Parasites have existed in our population for many years. While none of us would oppose helping those who cannot help themselves (I call them the "can nots"), we have no duty whatsoever to those who use the system and have done so for generations (I call them the "will nots").
Our country would move a little toward healing if we could separate the two groups. We must continue to help the "can nots" and we should force the "will nots" to either earn their own way or starve.
All in all, Obama and his "colleagues" have caused a large increase in the "will nots" for the sole purpose of getting their votes The effort has gotten us to almost 50,000,000 on food stamps with the number growing every day with the "blessing" of the administration
Now, before anyone gets upset, I am not advocating letting innocent children go hungry. However, maybe we should tie the tubes of these mass producers of offspring. Of course, once they become pregnant, and for many of them that is about all they are capable of doing, I do not believe in terminating any pregnancies. Put the children up for adoption (as an attorney with extensive experience and expertise in adoptions, I know that the waiting lists of potential adopting parents are extremely long) and, after the baby is placed, tie the tubes. If you don't approve of tying tubes, castration is a possibility.
I may sound harsh but, due to my many years working in this area, I have seen too much to have a different belief.
Notice how the usual suspects want to either ignore this topic or change the subject. When was the last time that the brother of a U.S. president collected illegal donations for a non-existent charitable organization and still received royal treatment from a federal agency? Answer: Never.
If there were not so many other serious scandals engulfing this administration, this one would have some long legs. Retroactive approval of a nonprofit organization in under 30 days to an organizer who had been breaking the law for more than two years? This administration has no shame and neither do its accomplices.

I guess what's good for the teabaggers is good for the liberals.

Until and unless the everyday man begins to feel the pain for himself, demands for justice to this administration will likely not be very intense.

I guess you have nothing to contribute to any of these threads, so all you can muster is a string of insults. Your intellect and character are showing, RV.

Even that will not be enough to scare Obama's accomplices straight. They will simply claim that Bush did it too (whatever "it" is), or Obama had no choice because Republicans would not help him take the country down the road to a totalitarian government. The fact that they will suffer will not matter to them, as long as pro-Americans suffer more.

Whenever anybody has anything that doesn't agree with right wing thought you guys holler liberal media anyway.

Oh, I don't disagree with that at all. Liberals are feeling really big about themselves right now as was demonstrated by former IRS chief Douglas Shulman in his answer to Congress as to why he had visited the White House 157 times without so much as a heads up to Mr Obama about the targeting of tea party and other patriotic groups.
They believe they've got the republicans in their rear view to stay.
Still no Obamabot response to this outrage by Obama's IRS goons. They cannot even admit the most obvious abuses of power by the current administration.

Post the actual proof that the stuff in the OP is actually true. You climbed onboard without even checking anything out.

You are the one who checked nothing out before attempting to derail this thread. This story has been around a long time and the Obama administration's reaction was to grant a quick approval of tax exempt status to President Obama's best man. If you want proof of all of the corruption charges facing this administration, then demand the appointment of a team of special prosecutors and let's have some trials. But you really are not interested in getting to the truth, are you, RV?
I have never been certain if the reason Obama gets a free pass is because he has so many socialist beliefs, because he has many Muslim beliefs, because he is anti-Christian or because he is half black. Most likely, it is a combination of the four.

Well, the liberal "ship of fools" needs a captain doesn't it?
