"Screw you! I don't care what you think! We're the IRS!"
Posted on 06/20/2014 6:02:09 PM PDT by John Semmens
Citing a lengthy list of suspicious coincidences—including the most recent loss of critical evidence due to a narrowly focused crash of the computers used by individuals involved in the discriminatory treatment of conservative organizations—many of the Agency's critics have called for a "Special Prosecutor."
IRS Commissioner John Koskinen told the House Ways and Means Committee, though, that "appointing a 'Special Prosecutor' to investigate alleged abuses in the Agency would be a colossal waste of money. Look, we've thoroughly frustrated every inquiry launched thus far. Why should anyone think we wouldn't just as easily thwart a so-called Special Prosecutor?"
Representative Dave Camp (R-Mich), chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, characterized Koskinen's remarks as "the kind of arrogance that reeks of tyranny. This Administration and its agents act as if the law and Constitution do not apply to them."
Koskinen taunted Camp in his reply asserting that "if Mr. Camp and his cohorts are displeased with the way we are running the Government the Constitution has a prescribed remedy they may follow. Their reluctance to take up this remedy is a testimony to their impotence. If I am construed as being disrespectful I think I am on solid ground when I say that they've earned it."
Representative Elijah Cummings (D-Maryland) strenuously objected to "Camp's rude behavior toward this dedicated civil servant. The IRS is tasked with the crucial and difficult job of recovering the nation's resources from individuals who would siphon them off for their own personal gain. The conservative groups that the IRS targeted are aiding and abetting greedy individuals by resisting the tax increases and spending programs that are part-and-parcel of the implementation of the President's plan to secure social justice for all."

IRS Commissioner John Koskinen said today
that the IRS save $200,000 per year by destroying
the “hard drives”, 10 days after notification by
the Committee.
Let me guess...the IRS might have to audit said special prosecutor to make sure he isn’t breaking the tax laws.
“Special prosecutors pay taxes too. Capeesh?”
With the IRS as our example, we can all save money, it seems, by resisting their audits and destroying records showing culpability, no?
This IRS Commissioner is evil. He even looks evil.
I hope this son-of-a-bitch gets a debilitating disease that he suffers for years. Along with EVERYONE that works for the IRS. F**K these traitors.
F U B O!
Less then half of it is satire, really.
He kind of reminds me of the island guardians off the 60’s show, the Prisoner.
Go after Learner and Koskinen
Take authenticated parchment copies of the Constitution and glue the pages all over their bodies before sticking
several rolled up copies right up where the sun don’t shine.
And do it on national TV.
I am sick of these liberal fascists. And so is America.
Special prosecutors? You betcha.
If the liberal fascist left had their way, conservatives would be facing firing squads, rather than a mere derogation and abrogation of Constitutional Freedoms.
As a matter of fact, thats how Obama achieved his election to a second term, the treasonous ba$tard, by silencing conservative opposition using the IRS!!
Time to quit the satire business , reality is far more unbelievable and entertaining.
Sounds like Koskinen just earned a bonus.
No, you are not the IRS; rather you are a liberal fascist civil servant who has no respect for the Constitution. The People are about to fire you!
What difference does it make at this point?
What was his bonus last year? If he's so worried about finances, well...
This smug, pig-faced a**hole needs to go to jail. For a long time.
The Fox doesn’t want anyone looking into ‘hen house’ problems...
Has he ever been audited? Can I do it? Please?
