Auditing Americans for their political views is NOT a good idea.

The last time she set up Camp Casey, only 100 people showed up. Her lustre is diminishing and she's been as useful to the Commies as could have been. She's used up. Why in the heck would someone want to stir the mix up with this auditing proposition. She'll just fade away.

While i have no doubt her accounting would prove interesting and shoddy and questionable, pushing to have anyone audited strikes me as just plain wrong. She is certainly doing enough damage to herself lately. Isn't this what the other side does?

I don't like the idea at all. The IRS is a Gestapo, and people commit suicide because of them.

Sheehan's killing herself without their help.

This won't go anywhere. No online petition ever does.

But it should be investigated by someone as to exactly how Cindy Sheehan is paying her bills and can afford all the travel she does. And how much and what sources of income is reported on her tax returns this coming April 15th.

"And how much and what sources of income is reported on her tax returns this coming April 15th."

According to her, she won't be paying any taxes cause "Bush killed her boy".

What are they gonna count, her dildo collection? Only a matter of time before she " comes out " and states that she has always been a repressed and opressed lesbian.

common try again its up to 19, as it was only loaded at mid-morning today

here is the bulk of the petition

As an American Citizen who pays taxes I do hereby request an IRS audit of Cindy Sheehan, a "protester" who has made public statements in the press that she refuses to pay taxes for 2004, yet receives money from groups supporting her, that are not tax free.

As a concerned American, who lives by this countries laws, I cannot stand by and see another US citizen thumb their nose at state and federal laws.


Cindy Sheehan says US President George W. Bush is a criminal.
George W. Bush is not the criminal
Cindy Sheehan is
Cindy Sheehan is breaking the law; therefore, she’s knowingly committing a crime. Therefore, she’s a criminal.

Cindy Sheehan owes taxes from 1996 through 1998.
Cindy Sheehan has tax liens against her house.
Cindy Sheehan informed the media that her son was killed in New Iraq in 2005. “I am not paying my taxes for 2004. You killed my son, George Bush, and I don't owe you a penny. . .You give my son back and I'll pay my taxes. Come after me (for back taxes) and we'll put this war on trial."

Cindy Sheehan is also quoted as saying "I wanted them to come after me [for back taxes] and I want to put this war on trial,"
Cindy Sheehan said she has not paid her taxes for 2004, but has been setting aside some money in an escrow account.
Is that Legal ???
IRS law states , quote
" Compliance with the tax laws in the United States relies heavily on self-assessments of what tax is owed. This is called voluntary compliance. When individuals and corporations make deliberate decisions to not comply with the law, they face the possibility of a civil audit or criminal investigation which could result in prosecution and possible jail time. Publicity of these convictions provides a deterrent effect that enhances voluntary compliance.

Cindy Sheehan is a WELL PAID War Protester !
How many of us who actually work for a living could take a month or two off, not get fired, and still pay our bills? How is she eating? Where is she staying? Who's paying her airfare? She's got 3 buses full of supporters traveling with her around the country. Don't any of these people have jobs?
The TRUTH is that Cindy Sheehan's "job" is being a PAID PROFESSIONAL PROTESTER and living off the donations of the anti war movement. She's got that big smile on her face because she knows soon she'll be counting all that donation money.
Tax free right ? I wonder if she's even keeping an account of all that money that's coming her way? I doubt it, I'm sure she doesn't want a trail for the IRS to follow.

Cindy Quote: "Please take a moment right now to make the largest donation possible (to her anti war movement).
I know that many of you have given and will continue to give to Katrina relief efforts, and it's important that we each do what we can to help out. But hopefully you also understand how important it is to lend us your financial support for our anti-war mobilization." "We need to raise another $150,000 to cover the costs of this mobilization. So we turn to YOU, the people who are the backbone, the heart and soul, of this movement."

Cindy says we should donate to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina but that we should save enough donate to HER also!!!

It's been reported that Cindy has already collected between $100,000 and $200,000 in donations.

Hey Cindy, now YOU are one of those top 2% of the wealthiest Americans!!!

PAY YOUR TAXES !

There are NO requirements to where she can spend this money. The web site where she collects this money says "Please note: Donations are NOT tax deductible." What that means is that her fund is NOT an accountable tax free organization (although Cindy has vowed not to pay her taxes).

That means that Cindy Sheehan can spend this money,
ANY WAY SHE WANTS TO!

Therefore I and the taxpaying undersigned below request the IRS to run an audit on Cindy Sheehan, a person who has stated publicly she wont pay taxes and has challenged the IRS to come after her.

Sorry, I've been screwed on that end of the IRS table, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone. Sheehan is a surely deserving of scorn and ridicule but not harassment by the IRS.

Sheehan is a pitiful, shameless media ho.

Sic'ing the IRS on your political enemy is a pitiful, shameless, disgusting, fascistic tactic.

Good for this board to shame you on the idea for DUers to see who really is opposed to a fascist state.

(And online petitions are useless.)
