[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The utter refusal of conservatives on this board to answer the question "do tea party groups meet the legal definition of a 501 c 4" is the ultimate proof on this subject. None of you can say that they meet the standard. None. [/quote]

I do not know the mission of the “conservative” organizations, so I don’t know if they should qualify or not.  That is the job of the IRS.  But, they did not do their job.  These “conservative” groups were put in limbo.  They were not approved or disapproved.  And, there may be some that still have not been given approval (I did not check on this statement).  So, without the approval or disapproval, they could not operate as a 501c4 nor could they protest a non approval.  
Tell us about the liberal groups that were put in limbo.  [/quote]

You mean like Progress Texas?  https://www.scribd.com/doc/141747252/IRS-Request-for-More-Information-Progress-Texas-Feb-2012

Any of those Tea Party groups could have filed as 527s and received tax exempt status.[/quote]

Do you know when Progress Texas applied and how long before they were approved?  From what I read, it took about a year - not the 3+ years that other groups were put in limbo.  [/quote]
479 days.  But then again, they promptly answered two rounds of additional questions.  Check out the followup list:  https://www.scribd.com/doc/141747252/IRS-Request-for-More-Information-Progress-Texas-Feb-2012

It is no more invasive than the tea party groups got.
