The IRS is claiming that their targeted of Tea Party groups was just a "procedural error", funny how that "procedural error" didn't lead to any left-wing groups being harassed.
The Tea Party groups that the IRS went after were all sent letters of inquiry demanding chilling information. The IRS demanded lists of donors, names of spouses and family members, detailed information about political views and associations — all of that “under penalties of perjury.”
They told the Tea Party groups that they must supply the names of any political candidates that participated in public forums conducted by the groups along with copies of any literature distributed at the forum and material published on websites.
