It is going to be great. Shulman needs to go. He has an agenda. He was involved with the sale of the stock exchange and then slid into the position with the IRS. Now, the IRS is instituting the Affordable Care Act. Between he and Sebelius the law doesn't have a chance.
But, the GOP primaries should be very interesting, ya think? The IRS has the institution of the new law because of the tax penalty. That's a no brainer.

...An apology Friday (click here) by the IRS conceding the "inappropriate" practice of singling out groups with keywords like "Tea Party," "Patriot" and "9/12 Project" in their names to flag for heightened, typically burdensome, scrutiny is "not sufficient reparation for violating the constitutional rights of United States citizens," said Jenny Beth Martin, national coordinator for the Tea Party Patriots.
"The Tea Party Patriots rejects the apology from the Internal Revenue Service," Martin said in a statement. "The IRS lied. They lied before Congress in 2011, and they lied again [in the agency's apology]. We must know how many more lies they have been telling, and how high up the chain the cover-up goes."...
The lastest political rant from FOX is about the crash of a Navy Helicopter in Afghanistan in 2011. It is a back drop to the Massachusetts Senate race.

...Gomez is a newcomer to politics. (click here) He's the son of Colombian immigrants and learned English in kindergarten. He became a Navy pilot and SEAL, earned an MBA at Harvard and launched a private equity career.
Kerry resigned from the Senate to become U.S. secretary of state....
Here again FOX has the families of the dead all revved up and screaming Anti-Obama as if the Commander and Chief was part of a conspiracy. Here we go again. FOX has a methodology that is very anti-government when it suits them. The helicopter crash is another issue like Benghazi and they are demanding hearings. I mean hearings about Secret Ops? Give me a break, that is a guaranteed CONSPIRACY theory to benefit elections.
...The Associated Press (click here) is reporting that a rocket attack took down the Chinook (probably a MH-47) , quoting an unnamed source in Washington D.C., but this has yet to be confirmed officially. The Taliban, of course, has taken credit, saying it shot down the helo during a special forces raid on a home.
For now, let's assume the Chinook was shot down, and by a rocket. Chinooks are American forces' preferred helicopters in Afghanistan because they are powerful enough fly over mountains while carrying a full complement of troops. They are also pretty tough; the only comparable loss to this one was a Chinook shot down in 2005. But Chinooks are at their most vulnerable while hovering in place during raids like the one this team is thought to have been conducting. They have to slow down to land or allow troops to rappel to the ground. However, it would be a very lucky shot to hit a moving Chinook with an RPG and they typically fly high to avoid such dangers as well as small arms fire....

This is where it gets really bizarre. According to FOX propaganda the helicopter was a Chinook and not a 'real' Seal Team helicopter. The families carry on about the fact there were six or seven Afghan soldiers changed out at the last minute which is counter to Seal Team policy. And they state there was no pre-fire laid down to insure the safety of the team. The pre-fire was not carried out because of concern for the Afghan people in the area.
Now, supposedly the change in Afghan military compromised the mission, but, there were no soldiers killed by gun fire. The 38 people dead on the mission were killed in the crash that supposedly the Taliban succeeded.
The complaints by the families don't track. This was not the first helicopter to crash or to be shot down in Afghanistan. Helicopters are always targets, that was true in other USA wars. Why this crash is receiving attention is because of the Seal Team status. In other words, this was the same unit that carried out the raid on the Osama bin Laden's compound and killed him. The families believe the commanders compromised the safety of the soldiers and this was retribution from within the Afghan forces.
So, because FOX needs still another uptick to the Benghanzi hearings they are beginning this mess. There is no resolving this to the public. This was more than likely a training mission and that is something else, the families state these Americans should not have been training Afghans. Who is going to?
...Special Forces are expected to keep the pressure on the Taliban, working closely with Afghan forces to maintain control as U.S and Coalition troops depart. That means more raids, more targets and more reliance on Afghan competence—all of which add up to more special forces casualties....
The entire complaint by FOX is irresolvable. The rant is guaranteed to be still yet another conspiracy by the Obama Administration to hide facts and 'the truth.' The very fact FOX News is seeking 'the truth' reveals an election campaign to bring leverage. There is little to no truth at FOX. This might be a first though. It isn't enough they have made a fool of Issa, now they want more on their Ship of Fools.
...DevGru is an emblem of U.S. military power, known worldwide. This crash is incredibly demoralizing. Could an enemy have specifically targeted the U.S. special forces team that took down bin Laden? It's certainly possible. Just last week the Afghans arrested an Army officer for aiding Taliban suicide bombers through checkpoints, and doing so under employ by Pakistan.
Special forces are very selective on who they partner with, but any collaboration with Afghans opens up U.S. Forces to the threat of spying. Several Afghans were on board and were killed, but trust is in short supply in Afghanistan. Add in the fact that more sophisticated foreign intelligence agents are on the ground, with signals intelligence assets and deep pockets, and you have a recipe for a plot....
This stuff happens. These nations are conflicted over religious loyalty and that of their government. Where infidels exist there is a higher opportunity to disloyalty and the Taliban infiltrate the ranks. That is a problem in the Middle East. There is no loyalty to NATO or the USA within these countries when it comes to military engagements. The infiltration that occurs in Afghanistan in Green on Blue attacks is unprecedented.
So, now the conspiracies by the Obama Administration is getting longer with every day of 'talk television and radio.' So far, going into 2014, it is Benghazi, the IRS and now Seal Team Six. We can only wait with bated breath to see what tomorrow brings from FOX.
The President needs to reread his job description, it doesn't include spending hours on end with conspiracies against the people of the USA.
