I say all of this not because I am a FAN of the IRS (who is?) but I don’t know why the IRS admitted to wrong-doing. They should have stood up and reminded Congress that it is THEIR JOB to assess organizations that are applying for tax exempt status, rather than just giving them a rubber stamp. And now that the list of organizations in question has really been looked at by the media, it shows that at least 1/3rd of those organizations were NOT Tea Party or conservative organizations, but rather PROGRESSIVE organizations. Therefore there was NO TARGETING. I suppose the IRS felt it needed to back down here, but I don’t know why. It just looks like political theater to me. I for one, as a tax payer, would hope that the IRS did as MUCH AS POSSIBLE to find out if an organization is REALLY deserving of tax exempt status. How is sending additional questions to an organization OVERREACHING or defying one’s rights? What law or right was broken? I don’t get it. Tempest in a tea pot. That’s why I think it foolish to get all fired up, dress up in ridiculous costumes (albeit only a few), and protest something before all the facts are in. Too many people with too much impotent rage, aimed in the wrong directions. When this “scandal” is looked at with hindsight, in the future, people will wonder what all the fuss was about.

Nope. Your wrong, digitalisman. In fact, so is Obama. The IRS has a responsibility to do a meaningful assessment of those organizations applying for tax exempt status, and not just simply give them a rubber stamp. I suppose you think we should just grant ALL organizations tax exempt status, right? Even those that give MILLIONS to overtly political causes and campaigns? And, BTW, if you were to examine the list of the organizations that were being assessed by the IRS, over 1/3 of them were PROGRESSIVE or otherwise non-conservative groups. There was NO TARGETING…at all. Nor were they breaking ANY law or anyone’s rights. That’s what I mean by ignorance. This is simply POLITICAL THEATER!!! The IRS was doing its job. That’s why these protesters are wasting their time. Tempest in tea pot. And even if you TOTALLY disagree with the FACTS here, what does that have to do with STALINISM? I don’t get it.

God shed his grace on thee!

These folks have no clue as to how the IRS works or what the people who work there do. Granted, that is a problem in itself. We need to reinstitute comprehensive civics or US government classes in our schools so that maybe people won’t look so stupid wasting their time protesting something about which they are supremely ignorant.

It’s a brave new world. Consumers have such a powerful tool to lodge complaints anymore. Yay for us! For once!

She looks…ok. Of course that’s after THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS of plastic surgery. And that’s money that could have been invested for her daughter. Sad.

Ha-Ha! Charlie misspelled “waive”. But I’ll forgive him for delivering wuzzername such a beat down.

At first I thought, “Why would a guy just up and leave such a beautiful young lady?” And then I started reading her blog posts. Now I know why.

I’m an atheist…plus I’m jealous cuz she’s gorgeous.
