Texas Nonprofit Is Cleared After GOP-Prompted Audit
The Internal Revenue Service recently audited the books of a Texas nonprofit group that was critical of campaign spending by former House majority leader Tom DeLay (R-Tex.) after receiving a request for the audit from one of DeLay's political allies in the House.

So, it's O.K. for the fascists to intimidate people that tell the truth...


snip:


"This audit was political retaliation by Tom DeLay's cronies to intimidate us for blowing the whistle on DeLay's abuses," McDonald said. "Enlisting the IRS to intimidate critics is a dirty trick reminiscent of Richard Nixon. . . . It is not a crime to report a crime, as we did with DeLay."

Got dirt on the Junta?, better make sure your taxes are in order...the "Law and Order" party strikes again...buncha hypocrites
