and you aren't stopping IRS funding BECAUSE???And what does Orrin Hatch plan to do about it? Absolutely, positively, not one single thing. He is blowing smoke, just like all the rest. Nothing will be done. BOHICA.
If any of these elected officials were sincere, they would be advocating the begin a new tax policy. They have punished the citizenry for too long. How much more proof do the undecided need to see both parties are out of control with no bearing to make constructive reforms; they will not set in place oversight. This government is out of control.
Nothing but illusionary scare tactics for his home base. He will do nothing about this, especially pressure the House Pubbies to remove the funding from any continuing budget resolutions. Last week he was very close to saying there should be an exception for the staffers who will be leaving because of the high costs of Obamacare.
Not interested in hearing from those in Congress who knew about domestic spying all along and kept quiet.
Quite true, Senator.
So what do you plan to do about it?
Aside from bitch at us...???
But the whoring Senate and House will do NOTHING
about it because THEY ARE NOT UNDER IT.
Nor are their families. Nor their staff.
(Nor Moslems, the apparent winners of the 911 Atrocities).
It’s not that the IRS “can’t manage an increase of 1,700 applications for tax-exempt status”, the groups where targeted because of their politics.
If Hatch cared he could push for repeal of CommieCare, consistently not flip-flopping. He could push to defund it. He could push for abolishing the IRS. He does none of these things. Instead he comes up with some lame story about the IRS not being able to handle 1,700 applications.
Just another RINO.
and you aren't stopping IRS funding BECAUSE???What?? Hatch deflecting from the Utah Data Center??

As the longest-serving member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Hatch began working on bringing the Data Center to Utah in 2007. He held several conversations with seniors members of the Intelligence Community, and in 2008, Camp Williams was selected over 37 other sites as the location for the new Data Center. Hatch has continued to work with congressional committees to ensure the Data Center was fully authorized, and helped scale regulatory obstacles as well.
In September 2010, the Army Corps of Engineers awarded a construction contract to a consortium which includes the Big-D Construction Corporation in Salt Lake City.

Center to build Utah’s economy, patriotic reputation
Salt Lake Tribune, The (UT) - Thursday, January 6, 2011
Author: Mike Gorrell The Salt Lake Tribune
Camp Williams - The creation of up to 10,000 construction jobs alone makes the Utah Data Center a great project for the state.
But speakers at Thursday’s ground-breaking ceremony for the $1.5 billion facility emphasized that economic benefits aside, the center solidifies Utah’s position as a leading defender of the American way of life.
“The threat posed by computer hackers is very real and growing,” Sen. Orrin Hatch , R-Utah, told more than 200 participants at the event commemorating the start of construction on the computerized center that will help U.S. intelligence agencies combat “cybersecurity” threats.
“This country defends itself against cyberattacks every day. It’s an arena where we need to defend ourselves,” he added. “This center will support the effort to better understand that threat.”

The NSA will take the lead at the center, assisting the Department of Homeland Security and other agencies in protecting cyber networks.
Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, lobbied to get the center in his home state.
“The data center will be part of our expanding efforts to defend our Department of Defense computer systems from cyber attack and will also play a key role in helping Homeland Security keep our government’s civilian computer systems safe,” he said.
The new facility will give the NSA much needed computing and data storage space. A huge amount of cyber work is already done at NSA headquarters in Fort Meade, Maryland, and the Utah center will balance the load across the power grid.
“There are limits on the load,” one congressional official explained. “You can’t simultaneously run 12 showers in your home.”
Hatch said the 1 million-square-foot facility will have 100 to 200 full-time employees with expertise in information technology and electrical and mechanical engineering.
Then do something about it, Orrin. Do something about it. That’s your job.
But the amnesty-pimping douche Hatch has no problem with the IRS handing $4.2 billion a year in fraudulent tax credits to illegal aliens.
So, Hatch - you retard - what have YOU done to keep us straight?

The IRS is the perfect example of the NAZI mindset and bureaucracy.
The legislators, in ‘crafting’ their laws garner the input and requirements of experts, many of them from the very FedGov groups they oversee. Additionally, the Courts have held that those same ‘expert’ bureaucrats should be given ‘latitude’ in determining just how far to implement the self-crafted rules of implementation.
As a result, the courts consider it a legislative prerogative to give the creation of the implementing rules to the bureaucrats and will rarely intercede. Meanwhile the legislators claim that it is the executive branch that is responsible for the overreach.
I no longer believe we have enough folk in DC that are cognizant of the restrictions our Constitution places on their activities. Too many of the Reid/Pelosi socialists, and too few of the Rand Paul/Bachmann constitutionalists.
God save the USA!

Well done video on the para-military IRS raids on small businesses. Do we really want to give them more power over us?
