Remember Frank VanderSloot? If not, meet the businessman who could open the floogates to yet ANOTHER Obama scandal.
VanderSloot was the national co-chair of Romney's finance committee, and was bashed by Obama's re-election campaign.
He was also audited by BOTH the IRS and LABOR DEPARTMENT.

Just months after being slimed by President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign, Mitt Romney supporter and businessman Frank VanderSloot was informed that he was going to be audited not only by the Internal Revenue Service, but by the Labor Department as well.

Obama's campaign website had an article:
Quote:

entitled “Behind the curtain: a brief history of Romney’s donors,” singled out VanderSloot for being a ”litigious, combative and a bitter foe of the gay rights movement.”

Two months later, the IRS informed VanderSloot he and his wife were going to be audited, Strassel reported. Two weeks after that, VanderSloot was notified by the Labor Department that it was going to “audit workers he employs on his Idaho-based cattle ranch under the federal visa program for temporary agriculture workers

So we have a businessman who helps a Republican campaign, who is slandered and slimed by the Obama campaign; then is targeted by the IRS AND Labor Dept (who fined him $8,500 for having "too many flies" and "grease build-up" on the ranch house stove. "God forbid a cattle ranch home has flies.")

“Did Mr. Obama pick up the phone and order the screws put to Mr. VanderSloot?” she asked. “Or—more likely—did a pro-Obama appointee or political hire or career staffer see that the boss had an issue with this donor, and decide to do the president an unasked-for election favor? Or did he or she simply think this was a duty, given that the president had declared Mr. VanderSloot and fellow donors ‘less than reputable’?”

Should there be an investigation into the Labor department as well? Perhaps. Especially if someone is able to find more businessmen like VanderSloot who worked or donated to Republican campaigns and were subjected to audits/fines by the Labor department.
