I think you need to read this part of it again. As the author says, you would be going crazy if this happened the other way around. This isn't half-truths, like most stuff in politics. Everything he says in this quote is 100% true.

"Imagine for a moment that under a Republican Administration the IRS, led by and defended by IRS personnel who aren’t just registered Republicans, but consistent Republican donors, goes to considerable lengths to suppress liberal-oriented nonprofit organizations. Investigations are launched and the chief (Republican) IRS fixture proclaims his innocence and promptly . . . takes the Fifth. Democrats want to know more and subpoena his emails for the relevant period. The IRS (Republicans) responds that the emails must be reviewed prior to their release, but some several months later reports “ooops” THEY’RE NOT HERE AFTER ALL. His hard drive crashed. Backups? No, sorry. We cancelled the contract with the independent backup service. Never mind that we were required by law to notify federal archivists in the event of such a crash."

I'm sure you would think this was drivel if this happened to liberal groups under Bush.
