The funniest thing about the Democrats’ ridiculous “sequester theater,” in which they pretended that increasing government spending by 6 percent instead of 8 percent would leave America in ruins, is that they didn’t waste any effort on maintaining the pretense. Even while they were trying to scare us with the alleged horrors of austerity, the government was throwing big money into various frivolities. Once the sequester drama was over, the champagne corks popped, and the caviar resumed flowing, with breathtaking speed.
So, even as the President gears up for a $100 million junket to Africa (hastily cancelling a big Tanzanian safari after the press got wind of it) and the First Lady checks into a palatial $3,300-per-night suite in Ireland (with 30 more rooms in the five-star hotel booked for her gigantic imperial retinue), we learn that everyone’s favorite government agency is getting ready to hand out $70 million in bonuses.

When will this Liberal wet dream end?
Didn’t klinton take his whole administration to Africa to run from his scandal too? He even helps out the terrorists too.
I perhaps should be paying closer attention but I have yet to see an article detailing what the bonuses are for.
Generally, the award of a bonus is for achieving a milestone or fulfilling a quota. A bonus plan establishes goals, which if accomplished results in additional monetary benefit.
The IRS has approximately 100,000 employees if you include those already indicted for fraud. If the bonuses were equally distributed it would mean a $700 bonus to each employee. However, I seriously doubt there is any equal sharing of bonuses.
That leaves me with three pressing questions.
Who, by name and title, receives a bonus?
What is the amount of the bonus the individual receives?
Why did that individual receive a bonus?
Does anyone have the answers?
HUSH MONEY??
Well when the Massa takes 100 million vacations seems only fair.
Maybe they should make the IRS work on commission . Get a percentage of collections...../ sarc
Hmm, I would bet that 70 million would just about cover bringing that 7billion worth of military equipment home from Afghanistan, instead of scrapping it and giving it to the moose slime brotherhood. But of course that wouldn’t fit with little barry bastard enemy’s plans for the Caliphate.
Only after the application of gun powder.
awards for who could deny the most conservative 501c3 applications?
“Maybe they should make the IRS work on commission . Get a percentage of collections...../ sarc”
Why sarc? That’s what they are doing for Obamacare.

Slick and GW both took their fams to Africa.
