One of which was stripped of their status. Of the targeted group, less than a third were Republicans. If you bothered to put any effort into researching it you'd turn up the keyword list that includes the keywords. I'm not sure why I get downvotes because I don't do all the work for people making accusations. Since you are lazy: http://www.thewire.com/politics/2014/04/new-documents-show-the-irs-targeted-progressive-and-tea-party-groups-for-extra-scrutiny/361125/ http://www.thewire.com/politics/2014/04/new-documents-show-t... http://www.scribd.com/collections/4492912/IRS-Be-On-the-Look-Out-docs http://www.scribd.com/collections/4492912/IRS-Be-On-the-Look... etc. Provide evidence it isn't Republican Spin since you two are the ones making the accusations? http://www.politicususa.com/2014/09/05/senate-report-confirms-republicans-lied-irs-targeting-conservatives.html http://www.politicususa.com/2014/09/05/senate-report-confirm... http://www.hsgac.senate.gov/subcommittees/investigations/reports http://www.hsgac.senate.gov/subcommittees/investigations/rep...

You keep posting links that don't support your claims. Let's see, from your first link: According to ThinkProgress's analysis of the heavily redacted "be on the lookout" lists, the IRS may have targeted a higher number of progressive groups than conservative groups overall. Really? ThinkProgress, a left-leaning organization, did an analysis that showed they weren't targeting conservatives, in fact they were mostly targeting progressive groups. Provide a decent source and we can have a conversation.

  ...I provided you the actual documents as well as articles with links to actual government reports from Congress. Okay. So what your saying is, no source is acceptable.
