Just saw the heads-up on Drudge. NAACP is claiming they are being investigated by the IRS because they criticised Bush. heh...more likely the IRS figured the organization wasn't paying taxes. Also they must be terrified that Bush is polling better among African-Americans recently. Some polls show him going from 9% to 19% support. That could definitely be enough in a state like Michigan--which Kerry has to have or else it's over for him. I think this story is supposed to raise the spector of rascism and scare everyone into voting Democrat.

Actually this would only put the NAACP in a bad light and focus on the ridiculous accusations from Julian Bond calling GW Bush hitler. i wish them luck with tghat case.

I think that's what the Democrats have this election year. A lot of little October ho hums. No big explosion. Just a lot of little farts.

Regardless of the merits of the case, I think this is bad timing on the part of the IRS and could be the work of a Clinton hold-over.

Ok, I have a really dumb question here. When the IRS is investigating an agency, do they tell them about it?

I don't know the answer, but if they don't, then this is all just hot air and empty baseless accusations.

Well I don’t know if they still do it this way but 20 years ago this is what happened at a company I worked for.

I worked one day went home had dinner watched some TV and went to bed next day I got up went to work and all the doors were sealed with tape “yellow tape” and all over the place were signs saying “Seized by the I.R.S.”

Something tells me the company knew all about it Very Happy

The IRS is out to get Black people!!!!

Hey wait a minute the IRS is out to get all of us!!! Laughing


Seriously though its probably more than likely this is the result of some Clinton hold over, with all the things the NAACP has done over the years. To make an issue of something that they may have done now, when were only a couple of days before an election is highly suspicous
