Sen. Wyden: If You Don't Want IRS Hassles, Don't Apply for Tax Exempt Status

During Tuesday’s Senate hearings into the widening IRS scandal, Senator Ron Wyden (OR-D) suggested that the conservative groups, targeted for paralyzing IRS harassment and leaks to the left-wing media, had it coming.

Wyden said that  if political groups don’t want hassles from the government, they shouldn’t go to government for tax exempt status.

Of course, it is only conservative groups who were singled out by the IRS.
