Yeah—there’s that First Amendment thing. We assumed that it applies to everyone, even the left’s political opponents.
Project much, libtard?
The Dems are having a hard time keeping their Libtard wing under control. They keep hopping up and crowing “Damned Right we should have the IRS investigate the Tea Party!”
As the justified anger concerning IRS abuses prompt more discussion of ways to abolish it, we will begin to ask “With WHAT?” The two choices will probably come down to a FLAT INCOME TAX vs. A CONSUMPTION TAX.
I post this once again to remind us all — especially those who favor a FLAT TAX on INCOMES — that a tax on INCOMES (wealth creation) is a main tenet of MARXISM. I also remind the reader that governments tax that which they want LESS OF. Are we sure we want LESS wealth creation? A tax — if a tax there must be — is fairest when imposed on CONSUMPTION. The FAIR TAX is ready to roll out now!

Looks like the Dems on the committee put up this hack to be the Axe Man

This of course would require the repeal of the 16th and 17th amendments.
boner and company are perfectly fine with the irs as it is. that’s the real truth.
McDermott read from a prepared statement ,probably done by the WH days ago
Oh yes of course, those special interest big campaign checks are coveted, but as they say in the retail business you can offer an unbelievable deal on what you know will never be available to purchase.
McD should crawl back under his rock.
Well, that’s what democrats believe about themselves, so if it’s good enough for them, it’s good enough for me.
