Was The IRS Bombshell Last Week Just A Smoke Screen For Benghazi?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Like master magicians, when the government is doing something with one hand you need to keep your eyes on the other. The same thing may be true for the admission of the IRS that they may have targeted conservative groups leading up to the Presidential election in 2012.

 
Is it just a coincidence that the story of the IRS broke the same day that ABC News broke the story about the 12 talking point revisions that show proof that the Obama Administration knowingly tried to mislead the public in what really happened in Benghazi? Rep. Michelle Bachman seems to think so.

The Internal Revenue Service under the Obama administration – described by Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., as the “most feared government agency” – admitted Friday it targeted conservative and tea-party groups during last year’s election because of their politics.

Bachmann, a former tax attorney, told WND in an interview the IRS admission means the credibility of the 2012 election is in doubt.

Americans, she said, should be wondering whether Obamacare, which is to be enforced by the IRS, will target conservative voices opposed to President Obama with delays or denials of medical care.

But why would an administration ever confess to such a flagrant misuse of politics and power?

Bachmann, who chairs the House Tea Party caucus, said it’s the Benghazi scandal.
“There’s no doubt this was not a coincidence that they dumped this story today, a Friday dump day,” Bachmann told WND. “This is when they put their negative stories out.”

The idea here is that although the IRS scandal is damning for the White House, it will take the heat of Hillary who is expected to make a run for the Presidency in 2016. If the Democrats can take the heat off her, while falling on the political sword of the IRS story, Hillary may still have a chance in 2016 due to the pathetically low attention spans of Americans.
 
If the Benghazi story prevails though, even if not found guilty of any wrongdoing with Benghazi, Hillary won’t have a snowballs chance in hell of being elected in 2016.
 
What do you think? Is the IRS story, no matter how true, just a smokescreen to divert from Benghazi? Why or why not? Let us know what you think in the comments.
