The petition drive cites the Yahoo News report which disclosed that the NRA had violated multiple provisions of the Federal Election Campaign Act, failed to report its political expenditures to the IRS for six consecutive years, and appears to have avoided paying federal taxes.  |

Is anyone dumb enough to think that an organization as big and visible as the NRA could do that and not already be under investigation?

The NRA is one of the most transparent groups out there, if not the model for it. It is the ONLY organization that has both corporate and small fish donors giving for the same purpose. The round up program is proof of this. A company that gives a million dollars or the woman who pays the $25 a year both want the same thing. I guess in economist terms the NRA has formed the perfect balance between freedom and capitalism and everyone is a winner.

So,we have an author with a history of anti-gun pieces write a "news article" for Yahoo. Then an anti-gun group complains based on the article and now the "news" reported by Yahoo is that "Calls mount to probe NRA finances.". Talk about a circle jerk.

That's the reason this is coming up right now. Classic Clinton diversion tactic from the '90s. It strains credulity to believe that the Obama IRS would miss an opportunity to audit the NRA. These "allegations" are probably 90% made up. |

As if anybody can't look up the NRA's annual reports to the IRS, as required of every not-for-profit organization. If you want to try it, it's like this - go to Guidestar.org, search "NRA" in the state of Virginia. You might have to register in order to download the 990's, but anybody can look at them.
Also, it's not a "gun safety group;" it's an anti-gun group. But then, it's Yahoo politics.

People were when Harry Reid made the same accusations about Mitt Romney on the Senate floor. Reid so much as admitted it was a lie afterwards. Democrat playbook. |

The way this works is that an advocacy group publishes crap like this. Then a "reporter" at yahoo news parrots it. Then a congressman puts in a query to the IRS, citing the news report. The aparatchiks at the IRS fall into line and launch an investigation.
Even if it doesn't find anything (and it won't) the investigation is the punishment. It ties up resources, and the same "reporters" will print some stories with "NRA UNDER INVESTIGATION FOR FRAUD!!1!" leads. |
