Does she realize her ‘defense’ is even more damning of their actions? Not the effect she intended I imagine.

[Irenic]

If they didn’t spend all that money on folly! Get rid of the IRS, that would solve the money problems.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Ball is a ditzy loon.

[LeonardFMason]

Krystal Ball? Is MSNBC’S hiring pornstars now. Her logic is so twisted if applied to Hitler he would win Nobel Peace Prize.

[publius911]

The Last Word Monday night, saying budget cuts left them without the resources to do their jobs and they had to “enforce the law as they understood it.”

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

What happened?
The IRS didn't get their expected budget increase?

What year?
2009?
2010?
2012?
2013?

Does your IQ allow you to back up absurd assertions?

[Sarah Barracuda]

The IRS started targeting Conservatives in 2010, tell me, what kind of budget cuts were happening then? And how come these cuts only had Conservative groups being targeted and the liberal ones getting tax exempt status..the left making excuses for this just shows how disgusting liberals are, which I always knew but thanks lefties for the confirmation

[FlyingEagle]

Krystal Ball

Seriously

[molson209]

but the IRS had 50 million for conferences and parody films

[MaxMax]

Oh I get it, the IRS was in poverty living on the streets and had to do this.
The end justified the means, Obama re-elected.

[Amagi]

This excuse is way beyond pathetic.
Ms. Ball might best stick to Christmas party photo ops.

[Mr. K]

Seriously... I had to look to see if this was satire...

and OMG it’s not

Amazingly, it’s still not the stupidest thing she’s ever said/done (which is above)

[Girlene]

budget cuts left them without the resources to do their jobs and they had to “enforce the law as they understood it.”

So, they were so overworked that they decided to come up with long lists of individualized questions for each of these Conservative tax exempt applications? If they were so overworked, they would have simplified the process, not made it more difficult and time consuming.

(Krystal Ball - lol)

[capydick]

To call her an idiot would be an insult to real idiots.

[tumblindice]

Consider the Crystals of “progressive” MSNBC, how their noses grow: yet they toil not, but boy howdy do they spin.

[saywhatagain]

Further proof that liberalism is demonic. No other explanation for such bizarre thinking and logic.

[Bullish]

The blabberers on the blabber channel just make it up as they go along....
No logic EVER sees the light of day in their liberal delusions.

No, I really can’t understand.

Imagine, if police budgets were cut and they decided to arrest only minorities. Sure, Crystal would be down with that.
