To conservatives, the IRS's scrutiny of groups according to their names and mission statements between 2010 and 2012 put the weight of its enforcement power on the Democrats' side of the ledger. 

"I think that if you look at the IRS scandal, we see that the left will stop at nothing to thwart the conservative movement and try to freeze and really intimidate people from political speech," said David Bossie, president of the conservative 501(c)4 Citizens United.

David Bossie, president of Citizens United, said the IRS scandal is a “clear example of the Chicago-style, win-at-all-costs politics that Obama brought to Washington.” 

Bossie said Obama set the tone for targeting political critics when he criticized the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision, which barred the government from limiting corporate spending to influence election campaigns.

Meanwhile, outside of Congress, the president of Citizens United, a conservative organization at the center of the Supreme Court’s 2010 decision, reacted with anger at the suggestion by Pelosi that the court case was at least partly at fault for IRS conduct. 

“Nancy Pelosi and her liberal allies’ obsession with the Citizens United Supreme Court case has reached a new low, with those on the left attempting to blame the Citizens United case for the IRS using Nixonian tactics against conservative groups,” David Bossie said. “It is imperative that Congress and all other appropriate authorities investigate this issue and follow whatever road it leads down.” 

He added, “Using the IRS for political purposes is shameful and Nancy Pelosi and Democrats in Congress must join their Republican colleagues and get to the bottom of this apparent abuse of power.”

David N. Bossie, president of Citizens United, the group that brought the initial lawsuit that the Supreme Court ruled on, said Monday Mrs. Pelosi should go after the IRS, not conservative groups. 

“It appears that the left will stop at nothing in its quest to silence those who believe differently than them,” Mr. Bossie said in a statement, adding that Mrs. Pelosi’s attack was misguided and that “nowhere in Pelosi’s statement released today does she call for a congressional investigation.”

David Bossie, executive director of Citizen's United, the organization that brought the case against the FEC, said the new information should prompt a full congressional investigation. 

"The IRS clearly saw the Citizens United case as a catalyst to go after conservative groups in the lead-up to President Obama's re-election," Bossie said in a statement. 

"The Obama Administration's obsession of win-at-all-costs has brought Chicago style politics to the IRS. A full and complete congressional investigation must commence immediately and those who targeted fellow Americans for pure political purposes must be held accountable under the fullest extent of the law."

David Bossie, a former congressional investigator who was pitted against the Clintons in the 1990s, said: “Cheryl Mills was an enforcer, a leader of the Clinton obstruction machine and a lawyer and gatekeeper within the White House. 

“You didn’t get any closer to the Clintons than her. We now understand that after Benghazi Hillary Clinton was trying to keep a lid on what the American people had a right to know.”

"The revelations revealed today that the IRS was targeting conservative groups during the 2012 elections is shocking," said David Bossie, president of Citizen's United, the 501(c)4 organization that touched off much of the recent controversy over these groups' role in political elections. 

"The politicization of the IRS cannot be tolerated by the American people. To single out groups because they offer a point of view that is different from the Obama administration harkens back to the dark days of the Nixon administration." /p>

David Bossie, founder of the conservative advocacy group Citizens United — and a former Congressional investigator who probed the Whitewater scandal in the 1990s — described Mills as “the centerpiece of the Clinton obstruction machine.” 

Added Bossie: “Once Cheryl Mills came to light, Cheryl Mills has been the enforcer since the 1990s … this is a woman who has been the leader of the Clinton obstruction machine. That machine that obstructed us meaning Republican investigations, trying to get to the bottom of what the Clintons were doing in the ’90s, she was right there….[it’s a[ telltale sign that this is directly from Hillary Clinton.”
