IRS scandal should surprise no one

Terry A. Hurlbut — Sun, 19 May 2013 00:44:38 +0000

Yesterday the scandal involving the Internal Revenue Service broke wide-open. Angry members of a key subcommittee (including half its Democrats!) took turns denouncing the agency and especially its leaders. But few of them got the true point. The IRS scandal should surprise no one. Least of all should it surprise any in Congress. For they, more than anyone else, created the monstrous tax code that needs a monstrous agency to enforce it.

Leigh-Ann Bellew v. Joe Kyrillos

Nicholas E. Purpura — Sat, 18 May 2013 15:32:45 +0000

John Bennett, Monmouth County Republican Chairman, was quoted as saying, “It is ludicrous to me that these individuals (LD13) are being challenged.” He went on to say that he had no idea what their agenda is…. and that their candidates are doing a great job and are conservatives. Conservative! How dare you insult the Republican voters in Monmouth County. Christie’s puppet, Senator Kyrillos (a/k/a “Luke Fencewalker” as named by his colleagues in the legislature), is anything but conservative! He is, [...]

Minnesota: letter of indictment

Bradlee Dean — Sat, 18 May 2013 00:02:11 +0000

The front: homosexual marriage. The end: schoolchildren. And no State better illustrates that fact this week than does Minnesota.This week, Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton (labeled one of America’s worst senators by TIME) signed homosexual marriage legislation into un-law after the un-lawful House and Senate approved it. In concert these branches of the Minnesota government have proved themselves in defiance against the laws of Nature and Nature’s God, as found in the Declaration of Independence. In the Minnesota Supreme Court chambers, [...]

Global Flood gains astronomical fix

Terry A. Hurlbut — Fri, 17 May 2013 22:17:37 +0000

The Center for Scientific Creation and the Creation Science Hall of Fame separately announced today that an astronomical date for the Global Flood is now available.

This date for the Global Flood is the date that the five most clock-like of all comets, that astronomers have observed three or more times, were all at perihelion in the same year. Or they would have been at perihelion if comets existed before the Global Flood.

Ready, aim, reclaim

In a previous article, I identified six factors that have turned America from the land of the free into an all-consuming Beast – a Beast that will literally destroy the heart and soul of America unless we are able to slay it.

Below are the six factors:

A complicit and ideologically driven media; Judges that legislate from the bench and ignore constitutional mandates; Crippling taxation that steals the fruits of one’s labor to give to others; Schools that indoctrinate students into secular hedonism instead of [...]

IRS scandal makes case for tax reform

Terry A. Hurlbut — Wed, 15 May 2013 16:00:14 +0000

The IRS scandal grows by the hour. Every hour shows more proof that the Internal Revenue Service behaved badly, and always has. But people aren’t looking at the real scandal. The real scandal is a tax code that needs an IRS to enforce it. Our tax laws let, even make, the IRS ask things about you that are none of anyone’s business but yours. Such laws are not fit for governing a free people.

State legislators – an open letter

Dwight Kehoe — Tue, 14 May 2013 20:35:08 +0000

Dear State Legislator,

During the past several months I have attended a few of the hearings held in the capitol as one committee after another sat in judgment of my rights as an American citizen and debated as to what extent they would unconstitutionally infringe on the Bill of Rights.

During those hearings I sat quietly in the crowd or reviewed video records after the fact. I listened as great patriots and Americans testified, provided anecdotal apologues, and proffered irrefutable statistics and [...]

IRS scandal widens

Terry A. Hurlbut — Mon, 13 May 2013 15:07:46 +0000

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has always targeted conservative groups, pro-Israel groups, and groups seeking to improve America. Now its activities are a public scandal. But this should surprise no one.

The IG on the IRS

The Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration told these things to investigators for Congress. The Wall Street Journal’s John McKinnon reports on what he told them.

Lois Lerner runs the division that screens Applications for Recognition of Exemption. At issue are Forms 1023 (for 501(c)(3) charities) and [...]

IRS caught in lies about targeting

Terry A. Hurlbut — Sun, 12 May 2013 22:55:10 +0000

The plot surrounding the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and its targeting of conservative groups, thickened this weekend. An Inspector General’s report confirmed what many observers suspected: the IRS has targeted conservative groups for years. Worse yet, a Commissioner of Internal Revenue perjured himself before Congress last year. And now even a liberal Democrat criticized the IRS for its behavior.

Breitbart News’ Tony Lee reports on what a Treasury Inspector General said. He cites this report by Stephen Ohlemacher [...]
