Frosting on the intimidation cake

The IRS


Across the country, Tea Party groups held peaceful demonstrations in front of Internal Revenue offices.

In the wake of the news that the IRS targeted right winged groups for "SPECIAL" scrutiny, the protests were to be expected. What was not expected nor usual was the Department of Homeland Security's presence at some of those gatherings. There is absolutely no history of Tea Party activity to justify sending in the big thugs. Local law enforcement has always handled such matters. It looks like frosting on the intimidation cake to me. The IRS targeted you to thwart and intimidate you. Now they are caught and just in case you are not sufficiently put in your place, we will send the DHS to finish the job. These are Chicago-style tactics by a Chicago raised administration and supported by a Chicago based Attorney General. This BS has to stop. Bob Lorence Englewood, FL
