Obama's Taxing Problem - 501C4 Scandal

"The power to tax is the power to destroy."

This quotation comes from the words of DANIEL WEBSTER and those of JOHN MARSHALL in the Supreme Court case, McCulloch v. Maryland, 1819 Supreme Court ruling.

Statesman Daniel Webster, (1782–1852), in arguing the case, said: “An unlimited power to tax involves, necessarily, a power to destroy,” 17 U.S. 327 (1819).

In his decision, Chief Justice Marshall said: “That the power of taxing it [the bank] by the States may be exercised so as to destroy it, is too obvious to be denied” (p. 427), and “That the power to tax involves the power to destroy … [is] not to be denied” (p. 431).

The Department of Treasury through the Internal Revenue Service, for two election cycles, did trample on Constitution laws by blocking and abridging the rights of over 500 conservative groups from establishing non-profit organizations. The IRS partisan political classifications suborned illegal activities to prevent all of these organizations from obtaining tax-exempt status, a 501C4 designation, thereby blocking donors from contributing funds as tax-free donation write-offs actively discouraging participation and promotion of conservative political activism to educate and inform the public for a better, more knowledgeable electorate. It effectively blocked nearly all opposition against the Obama presidential campaigns.

"I will not tolerate this kind of behavior in any agency, especially the IRS!"

"Denial ain't just a river in Egypt." - Mark Twain In order to get ahead of all the news releases, Obama's loud-mouth Nixonian bellicose outrage is feckless. As a continuing series of revelations about the IRS scandal and other misconduct by members of the Obama administration have escalated, they're costing Obama much more of his party's support and personal political caché. Obama goes forth denying anything is his fault and further blames Rush Limbaugh for his ongoing troubles - Really, Mr. President?

"Mr. President, who's going to jail over this scandal?", asks Speaker John Boehner.
