This starts it off

I like to give my thoughts on politics.  I most of the time have a liberal point of view and may on occaision be conservative.  I hope you enjoy my thoughts and want to follow along with me and maybe make your own comments too. Here ar my thoughts for today!

 

 


It was forty years ago today. That the Watergate hearings were opened. This resulted in the Nixon resignation he did this before we could impeach him for his confessed criminal acts. Then his successor gave him a full pardon so that Nixon would not have to spend time in prison. Because of this criminal act by Nixon there is now a law that says that the President cannot tell the IRS to do anything. The head of the IRS is appointed for a five year term. The man that just resigned as head of the IRS was appointed by President Bush. His term was almost up in June I believe but I may be off.(it was fun to watch him in the hearing and seeing the GOP rake one of their own over the coals.) Who knows if he did not direct this to cause problems or if he was asleep at the wheel. Either way the President did not have anything to do with what happened. The other point to me about this whole mess is why does any non charity group (Republican or Democrat) get exempt from being taxed when they are clearly in the business of getting their party elected. If I contribute to one party or the other I do not get a tax break so why do these groups get one. IT MAKES NO SENSE!
